The times have changed.  For years, I could walk in at 8:59.30, sit down & 
start playing.  Now, most places do not have a piano.  If they do, it has 
not been tuned in 30 years & 1/2 of the keys do not work.  ]

A few years ago I finally broke down & bought a keyboard.  It is a Yamaha 
120 & I actually like it.
