I would pay three bucks to see Bob Seger and MC5. Kick out the jams.

A Marr & Colton organ was installed in the State theater in 1927.

The magnificent Toledo State Theatre! 2000 seats on one level, housed a 3/11 Marr & Colton of which many recordings survive. Farewell concert on the organ in 1971, theatre subsequently boarded up/abandoned. The years that followed were not kind: gang activity, vandalism, scene of a tragic murder, and finally in 1995, despite local efforts to find a developer to restore, was torn down. The only positive note: The fine Marr & Colton pipe organ was donated to the Toledo Area Theatre Organ Society for eventual reinstallation. See the Toledo OHIO Theatre for details on that theatre organ society and their ongoing presentations.
