Man I love that bluesy style of music and I'm completely in awe of someone who can play it as well as you. Great job. Beethoven on top of your piano there would approve for sure.

Thanks so much Bjorn!

When I was a kid my father always talked about wanting to have a bust of Beethoven on the piano, but for whatever reason, he never got one.  So, when we pulled the trigger and got the new piano a few years ago, the bust was one of the first things that I got.  I think of my father whenever I sit down to play and see it

I think you missed just 1 note. Just kidding. I loved it. Excellent playing! Great song too! Worth a ticket to watch and listen. Thanks!

Having been to New Orleans more than a couple of times, I must say you sure did an excellent job of capturing the N O  style and feeling. I am always in awe of piano players.  All those black and white keys.  How do you all do it?

Great job!

😀Well, there's a couple of places that were a little off.  Not perfect, but close... Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks!  One note at a time, then just string them all together

I didn't notice. I thought it was an enjoyable performance.
