Player Piano Concert
By Roger Waring

What a great subject!  So encouraging to see so much response.

If anyone is around the West Somerset Railway (Minehead to Bishops
Lydeard) in England this coming Saturday and Sunday (21st anniversary
Gala 22/23 March) I should have my 1922 Farrand pump action player on
board all trains.  Old-fashioned entertainment for the travelling public!
If visitors have some rolls with them - even better.

I take note about the need for variety.  I must curb my natural instincts
to perform only ragtime and stride.  Let's see -- how about The Wabash
Cannonball, or perhaps The Runaway Train?  Do they exist in roll form?
Does anyone have any other suggestions?  I can't forget the Crush
Collision March, can I?

Just rolling along...

Roger Waring
