I love it - wonder if a piano could really do this, would it.

If I could, I'd forward it to my nephew, he'd love it.

That's too funny!!

Pianojerome, where did you find this picture?

Thanks.

The piano is like a friend and should never punch you. If my piano punched me I would cry.

Many current performers would have a broken nose and frequent interruptions if they tried to continue!

Seems to me that this piano has to be suffering so much to the extent he had to attack the pianist!!

Thanks

This guy looks like Brahms a bit. I hope Johannes didn't get this treatment from his piano!

Gawd! That is funny.
LOL

Lol!! Nice one!

He looks more like PDQ Bach, who probably did get that treatment from his piano, or is it paino?

I think it's his music. :p

Don't pass up a chance to see this guy live. He is quite the showman and comedian. I saw him climb out of the balcony on a rope, what an entrance, he is a master.

Lon is right! You should have an afternoon/evening of laughter and fun. He did the same in Savannah, GA! That is, he came down the aisle in the balcony of the Johnny Mercer Auditorium, took the rope and went over! Nerve!!
And then with his tux askew and brogans to complement it, he proceeded with the 'musical' part. Needless to say, the audience was in stitches at the various shenanigans he had contrived. If he's near your venue be sure to see him!

Haha brilliant !

heh... :rolleyes: If it works...
the only problem is your face might end up like this: :t:

Very funny, Sam. I had this discussion with a young piano student yesterday. He has a way of pounding the piano instead of playing firmly.

Peter Schickele is really an amazing musician as well as a stuntman and comedian from what I've been told. A friend of mine was visiting his sister in New York, and had an opportunity to see him in a different more serious mode. My friend's sister a violinist that has her own trio, or plays in some string trio there.

Anyway, this past Passover a surprise guest shows up. After Sader, he performs a first reading of the new piece he just wrote. My friend sat there in total amazement and some what speachless because he didn't think of Schickele as being the more serious musician! It also turns out Peter is just as funny off stage too.

John

Heh, it's pretty amusing.
