Working on a few,specific riffs slowly with a metronome. Then trying to lay down some RH stuff. Much more difficult then Jerry Lee makes it sound. I know I can do it but find it hard to sit down everyday and put some time in on it. And yes a good piano will inspire you and make playing totally enjoyabe.
I remember one of the best Baby Grands I ever played was at the Surburban Country Club in NJ. Only got to fill in there a few times but I actually told the manager that I liked playing that piano so much I'd play it for free. Ooops !
Bill, I'm sure you meant Mark but yes, I agree with you that a great piano definitely has a positive impact on your playing.

PS: I'm sure Mark is excited about being 'me' even briefly
