I like the french-fry/earthquake victim organ: only in Pomo California says I!
Now, if only the major record labels would get their act together and start RECORDING orchestras in this hall so we can all partake of its glory!
Attention Esa-Pekka Salonen: you've been with the LA Philharmonic so long people now think Zubin Mehta was a falafel take-out joint on Sepulvada. Tell DG that you, personally, would like to make a few recordings in your lovely hall before that Venezuaelan upstart takes over. Show 'em how tough they breed conductors in Finland!!
I MUST GO AND HEAR THE HOLY AURAL TRANSCENDENCE IN THIS HALL.

I thought 'french fries', too!
And hey, if you and BB buy CDs, and I buy another for my dad, that's three sales at the least. Not too shabby for the classical recording industry.

Umm, didn't I send the two of you the ONLY commercial recording of Salonen and the LA Phil in the Disney Hall? Hint: Stravinsky plays a part in it.
