Me intently focusing on controllers surrounded by synths

Last night was an open-rehearsal- I crashed and burned a bunch 🤣 Tried out several songs, figuring out what I will present at the end of the month. I played some Glass etudes on the piano to see if buzzing is gone. It’s gone! Win-get! #scowl #piano #singer #songs #composer #rehearsal #twitch #chat ❤️
Me looking very serious and scowly with my arm extended to press a controller to activate clips in LIVE with various synthesizers in the background and a computer screen in front of me (what I’m gazing- I mean scowling- at). I guess I’m a scowler now that I’m older. Is that an automatic thing? Becoming a scowler as one gets older? My arm extended to a controller as I press a button to activate scowl-mode…

The genius tech, Ken, got a lot done on this beautiful instrument today. A lot of dialogue back-and-forth, trying out things, searching out noises and resonant frequencies/wolf-tones. There will be more and more, as getting an instrument ready for recording takes a lot more than people think. #piano
This is a picture of the key bed as well as the new carbon fiber action from my piano removed, so it was worked on In this picture, you can see a little more detail of the new hammers, the new carbon, fiber, action, and all of its parts. It looks so cool.

Having some more detailed work done on the 7-foot Mason & Hamlin BB today with my awesome piano tech Ken Huebner. He will be investigating buzzes, noises, voicing, and regulation of the new action, and checking on the new bass strings and new pins. Yessss…

My beloved grand piano’s butt with the lid open. It’s a nice butt. The front keyboard of my piano, with music on the music stand, and the lid is open.

I messed with the color saturation a bit, and this actually looked more like it. In that dreary neon light.

Gross icky day today, damp, cool, clammy - but there’s something about the weirdly filtered light on these leaves that a photo can’t quite capture.

Happy Caturday from Ziggy! #caturday #cat #heterochromia #polydactyl #goofball #ziggy
Ziggy, the white cat with different colored eyes, close-up of his cute face Ziggy, the white cat with different colored eyes, looking back at you sitting on a coffee table in front of a fire. You can see my coffee mug right at the bottom of the picture. Ziggy, the white cat playing with me spraying out his giant front paws which have extra toes Ziggy, the white cat attacking the towel that I am playing with him with. That was terrible English. I should be ashamed.

I did my fourth tuning this weekend (on stream, but it's not publicly on YouTube). It was meh, at best. Still learning (the hard way, of course). Worth it. 1/3

a pic of me sitting at my piano with my hair down, tuning it, left hand is playing a tenth on the keys, whilst the Right Hand is adjusting the tuning wrench on the pins. Behind us is a small pic of Salvatore Dali leering at me with the text : "Forget perfection, you'll never achieve it"

Going to stream for a while as I tune the piano and chat, then maybe mess around with records again. Part of it is so I can experience that moment of [gasp]me
the TIME CHANGE with you on stream, lol.
Come and hang!

me looking entirely too serious sitting outside in the sun with dark glasses and a black shirt with a beige brick wall behind me. Ziggy the white cat with brilliant different colored eyes staring at you expecting you fully to go to the stream. Ziggy the white cat's front paws which have extra toes and- WHY ARE YOU STARING AT HIS TOES? Go check out the stream already!

My face without the masking white makeup showing off my glorious deep red skin with my horns. Staring into your soul. It looks juicy…
