where is pianolist?
on: February 06, 2007, 01:51:58 PM
pianolist, you said you were on vacation or trip for two weeks.  it has been two months, it seems.  where are you?  did you disappear?  were you in a car accident.  did you have an accident and get rolled into a piano?  i miss you very much. 

at first i thought you were attempting to take away all the pleasure one has of playing the piano the NORMAL way.  but, then i realized how much history is in all those piano rolls of famous people - and how very few people know all this history and how to play these pianolas - and make piano rolls.

and, in case anyone is interested - he has a great website here:

He got his beard caught in a bus door.

He was last seen doing 30 miles an hour along Charing Cross Road.

Hey, don't be mean, people.

Don't worry, pianistimo, I'm sure pianolist is just off somewhere on a vacation enjoying himself and will be back soon. :)
