So now we know both Ron and Zorba get the Steinway magazine!

Of course, that also means I get it, too.....

The heart-shaped hole is a nice touch.

I got myself on a mailing list after visiting Steinway Hall last summer, and they periodically mail out a mag. Both yours and Ron's photos were in this month's issue.

Uh-oh...

I hope they didn't run the one where I have that awful teal veil I borrowed from my wife. Teal is *so* not my color...

Is that a real Steinway? Something doesn't look qt right about it. Like it's a prop.

I thought the same--a prop. Cheeks aren't right at all. Action cavity height is totally wrong. And the logo's totally wrong. Also, near as I can tell, that thing has no plate. If it had one, we'd see light reflecting off those gold bars. My guess is it's a styrofoam mock-up.

Looks like a work by "I hate edges" designer Colani.
