Rickster 7000 Post Club Member Registered: 03/25/06 Posts: 7101 Loc: Georgia, USA	Very interesting video... Just goes to show that even an old warn-out clunker can bring joy to the lives of some individuals and put a smile on their faces; at least for a while.

Stryder87 Registered: 01/16/12 Posts: 88 Loc: New Westminster, BC Canada	That was amazing. It brought a tear to my eye at the end when the man and woman come back with carts to try to take the piano home and save it from it's fate, to give it another chance at life and some love. Pianos are amazing. They captivate people like no other instrument I can think of. They really are a magical box of sound. _________________________ "Music is something so innocent and pure, it makes a person completely naked - in music you cannot lie." - Alice Sara Ott Playing since December 6, 2011.
