"trained stage manager". We're lucky to hav= e someone who knows a piano doesn't go through the door sideways, much less ho= w to roll up the piano cover. The situation at UA is probably like at most school= s. There is a piano cover, and there is a piano. Sometimes the two actually win= d up together. When they are not, neither is safe.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Wim </DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
