I may have recognized it if you just said: "in Bay View". I was there once on an organ crawl in Petoskey (and drove by it when headed to something in town or further north).
I've never heard of an "organ crawl" before. It sounds rather debauched, though I can't begin to guess whether the debauchery is principally due to alcohol or carnal pursuits. Not the sort of thing that I would expect from a bunch of ecclesiastical musicians.
Yeah, 'organ crawl' sounds like a cheerful gathering I recall from the '60s involving nursing students and Ripple wine.
An organ crawl is a bunch of organists (and their groopies, if we had them) going from venue to venue (church/auditorium) and having a recital/demonstration of the organ at each venue, with the organist at each venue being the host of course (we don't just break-in, usually). It's kind of a pub crawl/bar-hopping for organists. Eventually, wine is involved so it is even more like a bar-hopping (usually at the end of the crawl, especially if one of the stops is at a methodist church since wine and them don't happen, publically).
If you start to slip into carnal thoughts, attempting to explain things to do with organs or worse, pipe organs, is near impossible without making it worserer. Could you just imagine the outrage from
Fox if Biden played the organ and had his own pipe organ to play (I had to find some way to steer this away from a threadjack)?
