amplifier, some of the equipment we brought in for this special event.
Setting everything up and making it all work together was, to say the
least, a real challenge!

event.

Right. The hall begins to fill up as the audience gather at either the round tables or the more centrally located straight tables. It is really interesting to note that although it is now 51 years since Ken Griffin's untimely death, he is still packing them in to hear music played exactly as he played it and on the same instrument. In the world of pops organ music, the "Griffin Sound" is still very popular.
