    Um, yeah. Play it once, shame on the sound guy. Play it 565 times in 2.5 hours, shame on the organization. Listen to it 23,165 times as a season ticket holder, shame to be a Rockets fan with no say.

    they need to copy the lighting of the Staples Center when LA plays. That way, it's too dark to see all the empty seats in the lower bowl.

    Everything about TC looks better tonight. They added red to the sidelines... Looks way better. The lighting is amazing. The sounds too.

    From being at the game, I can say that the "dark" seats were no inconvenience at all. Hell, I didn't even realize they did anything differently until I got home and watched some of the replay.

    I like a live organ player. I believe the Knicks have one. It even gives it a hockey feel.


    But it just doesn't fit Toyota center. The darkening of the bowl, I understand for the all star game.

    When I think arena organs, I think of Madison square garden.

    Bump for the organ! I was surprised when I heard it on TV. I mean, can we make a motion in this to at least add this element for next season? The organ was awesome!

    No we cannot because that's the Lakers organ player.

    Toyota Center is not Wrigley fields or any other ballpark in America... If they decide to use it, I don't care...

    They need to darken the arena, that way all the bad asses come out like they do behind a keyboard.

    I didn't watch the game, so I couldn't comment on the organ, but I do like the darkened seats. Looks much better.

    Would love to see the dark look used for Rockets games!

    If they darken the seats, people can't complain about it looking empty.

    it'd be cool to see if they had dark seating with a little dark red shade on the crowd. I think it would look really really cool..I think Brooklyn has a little blue shade on the darkened crowd.

    I couldn't agree with this more. Was it a real organist playing? Regardless, I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of being in MSG, which in my opinion is the mecca of NBA basketball and the best game presentation in the world.

    I would literally do anything not to hear the "do-do-do-do....'let's go Rockets'" electronic noise effect any more.

    On the plus side, I think John-Paul is a good announcer, particularly for a Frenchman.
