I'm no fan of post modernism, but I kind of like it. Oh, I'd rather have a rococo Knabsteindorfering from 100 years ago, but this one works for me.

From this angle, it looks like that black Euro toilet in the upstairs bath of one house I considered:

That angle makes it look Star Trekkie to me - but I didn't see the toilet in question!

This is how an outfit called Piano Logistics packs up a 6 ft grand for shipment to Tokyo:  | |||

Well, I see what might be legs, or lyre and bench and music rack but what is the curved triangular small package on the top middle?

Just my guess:  Aside from the bench sides and lyre, that rectangular box might include the castors, if they are not on the legs at shipping. Music desk is likely stowed in its usual place, padded. Prop stick, too.

Good thing it is not a 'square piano'!!! Thanks superman...I mean CG. I can see you have x-ray eyes. I love it. A place for everything. Doesn't look like much room for a stowaway though, huh?

Why the *&!@#$^*!&@#^ wasn't that thing bolted to the deck? I go to sea on research vessels as a regular part of my job, we'd NEVER put to sea with an unsecured 1,200 pound object - ever hear the term "loose cannon"?

Or if Bach were involved "loose canon."

|
| "The Veiled Male" Gadfly |
Yea, or in this case a "loose canon in (the) C".

Thanx for this tidbit - I have a coffee table book on the QM. I forget the title, but it is supposedly the definitive book on QM history - I purchased the VERY last one available on the QM a couple of years ago. I'll have to haul it out and take a look for those pianos!
