<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Patrick,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This afternoon, I had to tune for a =
concert in a
small hall.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I tuned the piano this morning, and =
had to check
it another time when it was installed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>People started installing the =
stage for the
choir (nearly 50 singers I think) just after I began checking
everything.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some notes were a little bit out of =
tune, I had
to tune them correctly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>People were trailing the stage =
"blocks"
everywhere and shouting at each other because they should have =
finished work
sooner and people wanted to go back home.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I asked for silence, everything =
remained
noisy all around me.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I decided to... go ;-)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If they totally didn't care about my
concentration and about what I was doing, that's because they 'd =
probably
think the piano was good as it was.</FONT></DIV>
