Yes

But really it's only a music festival. I'm still not sure if that pun has been intended or not...

I was always told that you need balls to do a music career

If you have the patient to make it to a few seconds after 1:50...you'll see that playing with round things was invented a few years earlier

The video is only good for people who have no idea how piano is played. He could throw the ball on the same note and it would constantly change tone according to the preprogrammed piece.

Lol at the hilarious reverse juggling act. Man I wish I watched this before reading the comments. I probably would have freaked out believing lolllll. My non-musician husband woulda called me a tool and filled me in Lollllll.

Wow, I learned to reverse juggle 5 balls a while ago -- it's not so hard.  If only I knew to do it on a fake piano I, too, could be on Leno! ; )
