WTF-Beta

I saw him either his last or second to last Carnegie appearance. The big Beethoven pieces were behind him at that point, I believe the program was Mozart and Haydn.

I did it! Perfect score (meaning no hints used)

Westchester.

It makes no sense.

@RealPlayer said in Fazioli 10'2":

I don’t know who this guy is, but why did he keep looking over his shoulder at the camera and holding up his index finger? Weird.

Disqualifyingly so. As in I would never watch his videos.

I played one 20 years ago at the dealer on the old piano row.

Pique - who was that old guy who ran Beethoven Pianos? He called Fazzioli ‘the world’s greatest Yamaha’.

Jesus.

hmmm...... Still in eye surgery drama

Sounds like you need a break. It’s been 18 years since you came to one of my piano parties….

Just sayin’…..

Are you getting any younger??? Why not come to NYC?

@ShiroKuro said in Piano Party 7/27 Klaus is coming to visit:

Wow, have fun!! Looking forward to pics!

Why not spend the $248 plus hotel and join us? Stick around a few extra days and explore NYC.? Are you getting any younger? Me neither.

Hey all - NY-area piano party coinciding with a visit from Klaus and his better half. The mainstays of NY parties, Bootsy and Grotriman, will be there. Mary Anna and Quirt should be able to make it. Ax is in.

Bernard, Joe, I’m looking at you.

People who live further afield, there’s a Hilton and garden Inn walking distance from me, suburban rather than city prices.

It’s just a permit so no ding on insurance yet and he can’t run errands unless I’m with him.

I’m guessing 6 months or so he’ll be ready to take his test.

Remember baby-nyc?

He turned 16 on Sunday and got his permit yesterday.

Israeli forces seize Gaza-bound aid boat and detain Greta Thunberg and other activists ...

Aka the “selfie yacht”.

The Australian wife of an US Army lieutenant was cavity searched, imprisoned overnight, and deported out of Honolulu. The CBP guy thought she had too much clothing and was planning to overstay her visa.

We had one here in the next town over until the very end, when they shut down in 2015. Now the same store is a Foodtown.

@wtg said in I found the perfect house:

Under contract. Not surprised.

Oh well, I didn't really want to move anyway....

Lovely house. Sorry you missed your shot.

Last July I saw a new listing and called the agent. She said I could come see it that moment. It was Saturday. Monday I put in an offer, one of four they got that weekend. There was a ‘best and final’ round, we rebid and won, not on price but on terms (no mortgage contingency).

All this happened before the planned open house the following Sunday.

Glad you’re ok!

Seems really remote but then I met several - like 4 or 5 - guys suffering from black lung in the transplant program at Duke when I was getting my transplant.

Happy Mother’s Day!!!
