its a vintage Electrokey electric piano, the sound is very similar to that of paul on " let it be". This old lady was selling it and it had a sign that read, piano 10 dollars, so now its in my livingroom!!! woohoo! the sound is amazing, weve been playing it all day!

$10! Wow! That's so like in "High Fidelity" when the woman wants to sell all her husband's valuable records dirt cheap because he ran out on her.

haha, thats what I told me roomate on the phone on the way home, he was expecting this huge hunk of junk, but seriously, its so rad. I must have done something nice to someone............................................................................................................nah, just lucky I guess.

No, go with the earning it thing. I kind of like the idea of musical karma.

how did you come across the piano? Yard sale?

My friend Les got the 2005 Mustang, but its been recalled, so I went to her place today to pick her up to giver her a ride to the dealer, and I noticed a sign up at the house across from her. I thought it was like a garage sale sign, so I looked and I saw this beautiful Organ/piano sitting there with a 10 dollar price tag. So I walked over there, and I had noticed that the seller was in the house, and had left it plugged in, in case you wanted to see if it worked, so I sat there, playing a song, and Les said, " oh my god, this is what you need, you have to have this". So I knocked on the door, and an elderly hispanic woman answered, and I said " Im going to buy your piano". She said ( in her accent) " Jes, it ees 10 dollar". I gave her the money and I loaded it up into my truck. I brought it home and told my roomate about it, ( he is a musician too), and he freaked out! He said " i would have paid 500 bucks just to have this as a decoration"! So we moved it up, and have been like children saying " my turn my turn". I dont know how many times Ive been playing " The Doors" covers on this, its sounds exactly like the keyboard sound on " riders on the storm". So thank you lady, I'll write a song about you someday!
