One of my biggest dreams ever has come true!

May 29, 2009:

Yep! Today I bought an 1976 Yamaha CP-70 piano!!!!!
I just can't belive it... Im so HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!!


It was owned by an "famous" Norwegian artist called Espen Lind. He painted the whole piano green.. ugly green.. But with paint witch is easy to remove.. :)


Its missing one leg (will be fixed), the roadcases are also missing and one of the cords for the pick-ups is loose and needs to be fixed.. easy job to fix.
Its also a bit out of tune.. but thats very easy to fix as well… Continue

Big Big Train have posted a free 23 minutes download at their web site. The track is stunning and features the new vocalist David Longdon sounding very much like Phil in his version of Supers Ready.

The best part is the download is FREE and the quality is excellent.

Go to bigbigtrain.com
