As a boy he did not have a good piano at home, but we always welcomed him to play the very finest in our showroom. On break from his tour with Adele, he stopped by and we chatted. We also invited the public in to meet him and have a great lunch with us. Check out the interview. He was a great kid who grew into a great man. Thanks for coming by, Eric. PS - I am the ugly guy on the left. Last edited by Rich Galassini; 04/22/16 05:20 PM.

Rich, great interview, and he's a lot more talented/skilled than I would have expected someone in his position to be. I have to ask: Did Eric try out any of the Cunninghams while he was there?

In a seemingly infinite universe-infinite human creativity is-seemingly possible. According to NASA, 93% of the earth like planets possible in the known universe have yet to be formed.

Did Eric try out any of the Cunninghams while he was there? He actually did OT. He also tried a few of our rebuilds and other new pianos as well. But he is a sponsored Yamaha artist so his comments are not public. Publicly I think his comment would be, "I prefer Yamaha products." Hey, that's business.
