[pianotech] Tuning with distractions

[Terry Farrell]

I got cursed quite sternly one time tuning in an old-folks home. After  
banging away on the piano for a while, some lady in the back of the  
room starts yelling at me - "stop playing that piano - you can't play  
that thing worth a cr--!"

Finally, one of the nurses escorted her out.....  :-)
