Ahhh there ya go!!!  Cover a piano in velvet!  This would be even better
than the nagahide Wurlitzers from the 1950s.  Of course you recall that the
high demand for the naga wurlies nearly drove the animal into extinction.

You could even hire an artist to do paintings on the side for the velvet
"art case" version.  A lava lamp music desk light would be the perfect
finishing touch.  Add a stuffed moose head and some hubcaps to hang on the
wall and your ready to crank out some country twang Chopin.  (Boy this is
getting pretty scary).
