blatant promotional moment but I wanted to remind everyone that the =
California State PTG Conference is NEXT WEEK. Many classes are already
standing-room-only, and we are having to move the walls to accommodate =
all the
attendees for the Bosendorfer jazz banquet. In other words, we ARE =
having fun.
Also, in addition to almost as many pianos as there were at NAMM, (not =
literally
but more manufactures want to show than we have room for, and we have a =
LOT of
room), sitting alongside David Rubenstein's one-of-a-kind R-371, (that's =
