There is no way I'll miss meeting/seeing again everyone when I’m only 40 minutes away...

For those of us who are GPS enabled, what address should we use for the destination? Alanna and I will come down the night before - any suggestions where we should stay? Does Steinway have a relationship with a local hotel that would benefit the long distance travellers?

I'm adding Joe Day to the list... bringing it to a total of 32. I think we need to have this as our group - - and if there are more, let's put together another tour in the future. But for December 11th, here is the list:

thanks everyone,

My apologies. Jon Dumont and I [James Callan] had a business involvement come up that won't permit us to be part of the tour.

Please enjoy the tour and take copious notes for the forum.

Thanks.

Hello everyone
I'm new to this forum but Steinway Factory Tour sounds very tempting. It looks like it is in a couple of days (Dec 11) but if there is any chance to join you that day we'll be just happy... 2 persons, me and my friend/pianist Tomasz Walski

Will you be having a factory tour of Steinway? I must know so that I can mapqwest myself over there or have my husband go with me. Please respond for today is Tuesday and soon it'll be Thursday.

Janaina Klang

I am sorry Piotr and Janaina but this tour is filled up. On the bright side it will be an annual event so keep watching. Also its next Thursday the 11th.

Bob,
Jeff Bauer is a spy. Don't let him in. He's got tiny little cameras everywhere and a recording device. Ori too probably.
Just kidding. I remember my tour through the factory. You guys are sooooo lucky to be going. I hope you all have a great time!

My apology for the late notice.

It looks like I won't be able to make the trip after all.

I hope some one can make use of this "slot."

Have a great tour, every one.

How early should/can we get into the parking lot? Is there a breakfast place nearby (within walking distance maybe)?

Thats too bad Ax! Jeff, i dont know probably, maybe someone else can comment.

THE STEINWAY FACTORY TOUR IS A VERY WORTHWHILE EXPERIENCE - We went last December and had a blast!

It amazes me the number of people who respond with their various "excuses" of why they can't attend. If you want to be there, you will --- just that simple.

Once you take the tour, you will realize (as did my 13 y/o daughter) why the Steinway is the premier instrument and all other discussions will be over.

As to taking pictures there - remember that it is a workplace (if nothing else) -- would you want tourists at you workplace taking pictures? So, take the tour, be thankful you can take a look, enjoy Bob's commentary, and live with your memories.
