Having just swung through the mid-Atlantic to visit family, I made a point of stopping by to visit with Keith Kerman and Shaun Tirrell at PianoCraft (hadn't been there before, I'm almost embarrassed to say), and Steve Cohen at Jason's Music.

PianoCraft is in the process of moving to a new building in Gaithersburg, which I understand will house everything they do now, while adding a concert venue they didn't have before. Although I only had time to see the "old" place, I look forward to seeing pictures of the new one! Thanks for making time to see me... the tone of that Steingraeber 212 was sublime!

Jason's Music moved a few buildings away from the old location in an industrial park near BWI airport. Apparently, a happy coincidence with the landlord resulted in a newly available space that was a high-end flooring showroom previously. The transformation into a piano dealership was an easy one, and a far cry from the barebones warehouse that was the old place. Now Steve gets to put the "hard sell" on customers from an elegant kitchen table...

So, come on Keith and Steve, post up some pictures!

Sounds like an interesting and fun trip!

I've seen some video clips of Steve's new store, and it is very nice! I wish he was located closer to my area so I could aggravate him in person instead of just on PW!!

Even a blind squirrel gets hit in the head with an acorn every once in a while.

We lucked into this location that was, as Owen pointed out a high-end flooring company. So the entranceway is italian marble, the main room is a mix of wood floors and carpeting, and the grand piano room is ceramic tile with hand-inlaid mosaic tiles. Even the restrooms are Italian marble and ceramic tile.

You can see pics on our website.

Great looking store, Steve!
