    Anyone else notice how much better the in-game presentation is tonight with the use of classic sounds and the organ rather that all the crap we've had to listen to the past few years?

    As a season ticket holder who endures the current crap every night, I'd kill to have this kind of presentation for the Rockets.

    I also prefer a more organic approach to game presentation.

    Nets started doing it with the move to Brooklyn.

    I agree, the dark seats look great.

    Yeah, the organ is awesome. If I have to hear, "Everybody, clap your hands," one more time at a Rockets game, I'm gonna scream.

    The atmosphere in Toyota Center was 1000% better than the standard Rockets game. Toyota Center actually seemed like a great place to play a basketball game, for once.

    the dark setting was soooo much better from sitting in the club seats for the Rising Stars game. People forget, they did this last few years at Compaq Center, not sure why they stopped once they moved to Toyota Center.

    Are the darkened seating an inconvenience for the people in the arena? Looks amazing on TV.

    Also agreed on the organ. Bring it back! NO MORE K$SHA!

    Dark seats would be great for TC to hide how empty it is at times!
