The powerful performance drew in a crowd of Muppets like Elmo and Cookie Monster to join the #song.

If you've been to Nelson, Nevada, you've seen this piano sitting out in the desert. If not, look up Nelson. It's an old mining ghost town with a gazillion old cars, buses, junk galore, and relics from the silver-mining days in Nevada. Mine shafts, an old chapel. Movies have been filmed there; it's a treasure trove for photographers. Worth the trip, not far from Vegas. If you drive down along the canyon from Nelson, there's a beautiful view of the water and Arizona on the other side. I love the various weird finds in the desert southwest. #piano #desert #west #nevada #roadTripFinds #road #ghosttown #mining #attractions #Nelson #treasures #authorLife #author #indieAuthors #authors #writersCoffeeClub #writers #writer

I review the James P. Johnson bio: #jazz #stridepiano #pianohttps://syncopatedtimes.com/speakeasies-to-symphonies-the-genius-of-james-p-johnson/

We have a 64-key Melodigrand. Finding a #piano tuner was harder than expected, so I bought a tuning hammer, some mutes, and decided to give it a go. The entire piano was nearly a half-step flat after 5 years. And many unisons were ... not unisons My first DIY tuning was successful and painless for a few reasons:1. The Tuner app on @fdroidorg is phenomenal - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.moekadu.tuner/2. This piano only has 2 strings per key on the trebles (instead of 3)3. The piano only has 64 keys (instead of 88)I would still attack a full 88er with 3 strings per treble, but it would take longer.
