This just goes to show that a church full of people at a wedding is a beautiful thing . . . gay or straight. It will be so much better when we get Prop Eight off the books.
Hello Green- Thank you so much for your kind comments. Yes, it is past time when the GLBT community earns equality on both state and federal levels. Prop Eight denies rights that the U S Constitution guarantees. But I will not go on . . .
Yes, it was a beautiful moment. About time that same sex marriage is accorded the same rights as opposite sex marriage. And now California is behind the New England states (except Rhode Island) in promoting equal rights under the law. Thanks, John, for your comment!
Thanks, Velostigmat. Yes, the Hutchings foundation is very much there. He was a great organ builder (who trained E.M.Skinner)! Greetings from San Francisco!
Thank you Jean and Christo for listening and for your kind comments. The song is "San Francisco". It was first published in 1936, composed by Bronislau Kaper and Walter Jurman. Words by Gus Kahn. It is the unofficial theme song of the Castro Theater, and is played on the art deco Castro's 3 manual Wurlitzer every evening, just before the feature film. There are whistles, cheers and a round of applause from the appreciative audience as the console descends from stage to orchestra pit.
That was fun to hear! Thanks for posting.

And it still sounds like a 1910 Hutchings too!
