I know you live in Irvine, but there is a great place in Northern Cal.
called Belle Roma, its a pizza palor with a pipe organ.  It has a lot
of other devices controlled by the organ then pipes.  Drums, sirens,
model train, flashing lights in the window casements to make it look
like thunder outside, etc etc etc.  Its in Martinez, CA, next to the
John Muir House state park.
