    @RealPlayer That's fine... as long as 6 feet ... isn't followed by ... under! 🙂

      Yes, the current piano bothers me. Nine foot grand, hard as heck hammers, harsh tone, really needs a new action. I wear musicians’ earplugs just to be able to practice.

      Yeah, that’s not good. Do you have a timeline for this purchase?

      P.S. piano drift is the best kind of thread drift. 🙂

          As a child I remember my older sister who worked for the Veterans Administration speaking about how there were soldiers at the VA hospital who had been there since WWI. It seemed incredible to me that a person could remain in a hospital for nearly 50 years.

              OK, when I was born (Bernard too), there were still Civil War veterans around ...

                @Piano-Dad Add me to the list.

                And WWII was only 10 years in the rear view mirror.
