Band Organ Music in the 2nd Millennium
By D. L. Bullock

So, if we are going to get the next generation enjoying our
band organs, how about some rolls with modern country music --
"Chattahoochee", "Achy Breaky Heart", to mention some older
modern ones.

"Oops, I Did It Again," a la Brittany Spears, would make a nice
arrangement.  Whether you like these songs or not doesn't matter
-- someone _does_ like them.  I don't think Metallica is quite as
important to modern "with-it" listeners today.  How about some
"Techno" band organ rolls?

Stop laughing!  We have to do something to update our instruments
admirers.  I would hate to think that these instruments would
die off with the present generation.
