5 Browns

[Will Wickham]

Hi Ed,

I've not worked for the Browns but had the opportunity to work for  
"Piano 4" last fall. They travel with 4 identical Boston pianos (I  
don't recall the specific model but they were around 7' I recall).  
Their routine is to set up the pianos in the morning, practice until  
1PM (which really means they finish between 1:30 and 2) then the tech  
gets until sound check at  around 4PM to tune and make whatever  
mechanical adjustments/repairs might be necessary. Makes for a pretty  
intense afternoon!
