3. Last fall I went to Vicenza, Italy and just as you entered the town from the station, there was a...

grand piano, guy playing, people watching and listening. Wonderful!

4. looks like great acoustics

. . . in that plaza.

It does seem naturally European, somehow. I can't recall a specific instance where I saw this overseas . . . maybe from movies. It brings back memories of '60s and '70s in the park in summer. I love the way some things never change.

Hehe.. couldn't resist.. very cool though.. reminds me a little of that one video of the "spontaneous" orchestra jam session in some urban core setting..

7. They knew he had never been on their TV, so they passed his good music by...

Joni Mitchell, For Free -

Nobody stopped to hear him
Though he played so sweet and high
They knew he had never
Been on their T.V.
So they passed his music by
I meant to go over and ask for a song
Maybe put on a harmony
I heard his refrain
As the signal changed
He was playing real good for free

Joni added these lyrics to the song during the 1983 tour:

Playing like a fallen angel
Playing like a rising star
Playing for a hat full of nothing
To the honking of the cars

Thanks for the post, BT. We always need to be reminded that joy and spontaneity are what's important in life.

that was his first time playing the piano.
