      Sure the piano is expensive, but it's expensive so that it can be played this way. (Well it's expensive becuase it's an Imperial BUT, not just that). A good piano is desgined to take abuse and keep giving and giving and giving and people don't seem to understand that.

If you haven't seen that one take a look.

      It was designed with a simple purpose in mind: to make music. This is what that precision, that dedication, and that mastery were geared towards: the performance of music. Thus, if crafting the best performance requires harming or even destroying the piano... well, burn the f#@%er down.
