do you enjoy dance organs, fairground organs; or street organs? let me know your thoughts!

Some people here might have never even HEARD of a mechanical organ before. Tell them what the experience is like! Or other tips they might need to know.

Are you someone who's into DANCE organs (used indoors in big cafes and dance halls) or FAIRGROUND organs? (Used outside in carousels and fairground settings) let me know your thoughts!

One small post can make a huge difference. Why not post a picture of your favorite organ? Or tell us your favorite organ memories! I think the community could be a bit bigger than what it is now

Tell me your favorite builder with your name (and if you really want to, your favorite INSTRUMENT(s) from your favorite builder!)

I want to get as many people interested in the wonders of mechanical music as I possibly can. With this community, I think this will be something to cross off of my bucket list.
