Hello:

I've just been added to the list.  My interest lies in Band Organs.
I don't know much about the things, but they've always intrigued me.
I visted "House on the Rock" (a tourist attraction in Spring Green WI)
with my family 30 years ago, when they just started their collection of
nickelodeons/band organs and I was hooked.

I spent my lunch hour yesterday visiting the Lake Front here in
Milwaukee where the Circus World Museum (Baraboo, WI) has all their
wagons displayed before the Circus Parade which is scheduled to wind
through the steets of Downtown on Sunday.

There where a few folks also proudly displaying their Band Organs.  I
came back to work and started "surfing the net" to find out more info
on these machines called Band Organs.  I stumbled upon the address to
this group.

That's my story.  I don't know how much input I will be giving.  I'll
probably take more than give.
