Abandoned piano remains abandoned on Avenue A


[7 a.m.]

Slum Goddess spotted the piano last night on Avenue A at St. Mark's Place... and people were stopping to hit the keys throughout the night (neighbors loved that!)

Still there this morning... waiting.



Maybe someone calls George?

We've lost so much as a culture, people used to gather around the piano and sing, now they gather around a tiny screen and absorb brand marketing.

I saw people banging on it last night, it was like a scene from a Marx Bros. movie. This morning it was on the other side of the street by the park and someone else was banging on it. We need more of this.

It's actually Lady Gaga not a piano.

If that piano is Lady Gaga, I'd like to bang it too.

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played!
Songs that made the Hit Parade.
Guys like us, we had it made.
Those were the days!

That's great. Now I have fucking "Allentown" stuck in my head. Stupid piano/Lady Gaga.

I called the repair guy and found his phone disconnected. A machine offered me an alternative of a bait and tackle emporium. Sounds like bait & switch to me.
