Schaff piano store visit

[Tom Servinsky]

Greg,
I'm waiting on one thing before I give  the final word but at this point
it's at 95% yes.
Detail: I arrive mid morning on Tuesday 7/25 and leave on Sunday.
I'm doing the Schaff thing on Tuesday early afternoon and trying to arrange
with the hotel to provide a reasonably priced shuttle. I imagine if a number
of people wanted to do this the price would be quite reasonable.
My intentions for the visit are to examine a lot of felt and have the
ability to hand pick...for once.  Their booth will resemble the inventory
that have had in the past but I'm looking to make a big purchase this time.
Tom Servinsky

PS...by the way..I am a non-smoker, 45 yrs. old, relatively quiet sleeper,
and extremely easy to get a long with.
