allthumbs Full Member Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 115 Vancouver, BC, Canada	Originally Posted by Rich Galassini We are seriously trying to come up with an idea using this actual piano that would support a worthy charity. Since I totally respect this group I have to ask the question. Does anyone have any ideas they wouldn't mind sharing here? Cool story... What is the status of the piano now? Were the guts ever re-installed and if so is it still playable? I'll bet that the piano could be auctioned off to some movie buff, maybe even a piano playing one.

Does Clint Eastwood need a piano these days? Forrest Mompou, Cancion y Danza #6 some Chopin, some Bach (always), Debussy My beliefs are only that unless I can prove them.

My neighbors can hear me playing the piano and I put a Colt 45 auto on the right side of the music rack when playing, just in case. (they don't like my tune "Go Tell Aunt Rhody" LOL!
