When pumping a player or reed organ the tendency is for the person pumping to slip away from the instrument. By tilting the bench lid into the opposing forces, the person remains in place and can put more power into the pedals with less effort being wasted on maintaining position. If you then turn the bench around so that the tilt is away from the piano, it now becomes a sobriety check. Place the bench away from any thing that would provide stabilization for the totally plastered and worthlessly drunk sitter and you have some party fun. Ah yes. The Party Seat. Tip you head back and have a seat. LarBear -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
