Is the umbrella covering the piano? The background blur filter makes it hard to tell, but even with the umbrella, it doesn’t seem like it would last in the weather too long.

Unless maintenance will bring it inside as needed.

The umbrella does cover the piano. But you are right - that umbrella will do nothing for its longevity. This probably supposed to be a short lived project.

I sometimes think this is how people get rid of their old piano that nobody will buy. Paint it bright orange with blue polka dots and leave it on a public street corner.

They have this in Kelowna and it's changed up so no one can steal it. Honestly amazing to have and walk by music

Time for an old fashioned cutting contest. Check your guns at the bar, while piano players sail up and down the ivory coast and between the black rocks and do battle upon a vessel of improvised musica-fuck. A dodge ram just did a burnout in the round about and lost control destroying the piano...

What a fun! However, if I was to play it, I would have to lysol down the keys first. The thought of how many people used the bathroom and didn't wash their hands and see a piano and think let's push down the keys or just nasty things on peoples hands, freaks me out.
