    What can you say about Lew Williams! He is surely one of the best theatre/cinema organists of all time. I have tried to get as many of his cds as possible, not easy as im in the UK. He and the late Charlie balogh always put on a great show on this Wurlitzer. What a place! What an organ!

    Back in 79 and years after (at the previous location 6 miles due west of this one) I used to put a request card in the "request pitcher" for STAR WARS with my best movie font and picture of the death star. This place never ceased to amaze me.

    I wish it wasn't such a long drive for me to get to Arizona, I would love to see and hear Lew at the beautiful Organ. Loved hearing him play.

      but the question is, yeah I know the cats are part of the mechanism of the organ, but, my real question the cats are just only an animatronic for decorative/performance function, or maybe is a voice/sound/instrument/stop on the organ, for example a Meow Meow voice
