I've been hit in the face by a flying bass wire before after it ricocheted all over the piano first. Scared the living be-Jesus out of me! Those suckers can really fly! Literally! Sort of like superman! I've had lids almost crash down but, managed to catch them including vertical lids. Had a piano go flying off from a piano tilter once.OK, twice..on the way back down to floor. It hit the castor's and VROOM away it. That made a pleasant sound as it hit the floor. In the background, I happened to notice that someone was mumbling to himself after that. Hmmm, wonder who that might have been?

I've had the plate break during a pitch raise on an old upright. Sounded like a gun shot. ____________________________________________________________ <http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3132/4beeac553683b45ea04st04vuc> Online Auction Tricks EXPOSED Reporter Uncovers Shocking Online Auction Tricks! <http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3132/4beeac553683b45ea04st04vuc> consumersweekly.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
