hobgoblinnThe big day is finally here! More to the point, the Pianos are here! Luke Jerram's public art installation, "Play me, I'm Yours" has come to Cincinnati. Here's a link.
My ambition since I first began hearing about this last month (on the local NPR stations, incessantly) was to play ALL the pianos set up all over town. Looking over the locations now, I may have to cough up the money for a ticket to a Reds game to get to that one, as it's inside the ballpark. But all the rest look fairly accessible.
I hit three today, all within a block of my work. I should be able to get the ones in Downtown and Northern Kentucky by the end of the week. Then the road trips will begin.
And yes, I am still writing on my HP stories, too. I'm not neglecting them while I play with the shiny new pianos.....
Wish me luck. I have until August 27 on most of them, and into September on the rest.
Update: there are 35 up until the 27th, and another 7 from then until September 17th.
