.... Is because no one can even begin to know how to build an orchestral organ like the John Wanamaker......let alone play orchestral music! As far ad being gay, unless you're sleeping with Cameron, why does it matter? One would think we were back in Grade School.

How does the brain do that? I mean EVERY one of his limbs is doing something different! Wow.

[bfs1888]

This is still fun to watch, and listen to, back when he was having fun

[MrBestvidz2]

He Messed up at 2:24 with the flutes but Good show sir!

Given the reaction of the crowd I think it was fine if you were there. I'd fault the recording equipment, medium, and location of the mics. It's clear that some of the audio encoding was faulty during the start of the bridge where it got out of sync and then skipped forward.

OK I feel really awkward standing and applauding and cheering at home after that...

That's because Virgil rehearsed while Cameron improvises as he plays. Improvising plays a HUGE part of being an entertainer, especially when it involves the organ.

[Patrick Brönn]

An organist of that stature and skill? Seriously? What do you think? Although, a musician is a musician, and a musician deserves respect, no matter which way you look at it. Circus artist or not, Cameron is definitely a one-of-a-kind organist!

[Patrick Brönn]

Yeah? What's your excuse?

[Circuitsoft]

Not really. They're all doing different parts of the same thing. You have the same problem with the piano, but on a smaller scale.

[Belldavid1000]

Yes!, Yes and Yes! Cameran would by cheered at Westpoint Chapel for this lively work. He reminds me of Kieth Chapman at the Wanamaker organ. Hint hint! Cameran at Wanamaker??Wow!

well I would say atleast there is someone so young that can really play the organ, and really rangle it like a theater organ, not too many can do that today, and as for the virgle fox comparison, I am sure if mr fox were around today the two would fit right in on colaborations, and other things too as they are both gay, mind you has no bering on his tallent to play, but it is just one more thing they have in common, the organ is soo under appreciated today its not funny.
