OK this is a serious post but with my tongue firmly in my cheek.
My wife and I have just moved and we are looking to buy a house, while looking we came across a church building for sale, needs a lot of work and while we could afford the asking price we could not afford (just at the moment ) the renovations needed to make it a habitable home.
Anybody want to start a group buy for a DIY Audio club house in Geelong Victoria Australia??
Building and land about $AUD190,000; renovations to new eco standards about the same.
But think of the music possibilities in a hall 12 by 35 metres with a cathedral ceiling of 8 metres.
We could build really big sub-woofers.
100 members at $4500 each??

Man that would be such a sweet clubhouse... Rock and roll hall of fame is there and everything!
I live in a small town in Georgia U.S.A . As everone knows in the
U.S.A there is a rigerious seperation of church and state. Our town hall is in an old church, our local school rents out part of the school building for church services sundays and a different church is used for our voteing pole on election days.

Hey Seeker hows it going? please send the tenner in a plain brown paper envelope, we promise to put it to good use < "Ha Ha" >
Older Catholic Churches did seem to have reasonable acoustics, perhaps our US brethren should start collecting to buy the building and restore the organ.
Then gradually pay for it by running audio swap meets on a monthly basis

Works for me! Is that about one rising to one's calling? Who's calling?
My local "backpatch" motorcycle club owns the old Town Law Courts as a clubhouse.
It came complete with cctv, steel doors and cells. You behave yourself in there, in the cells no one can hear you scream.
Also Liverpool has an old church converted for indoor climbing, it's here
