I went looking for the Hinsdale yesterday and had a little trouble finding it. I wouldn’t say it is on a main street, but sorta on a side street. To help others find it, it is in downtown Hinsdale at 29 E First, between Washington and Second ST.

The Hinsdale is a very special place. Not only is it a very beautiful theatre but it contains what is easily the finest pipe organ anywhere in the Midwest area. It is a 3/28 Kimball. And there are more ranks that have yet to become operational at this point in time. The organ can be seen here… http://www.catoe.org/hinsdale.html
I was recording engineer for a CD that was done of this organ a year or so before the theatre closed. I’m sure glad that we spent time doing this as this organ might not be open to public performances anymore. Don Springer and I opted for a “you are there” type of sound for the CD. The citizens of Hinsdale are fools if they don’t preserve this theatre!!
