If it wasn't for my arranger keyboard Tyros 4
I would be going completely nuts at home all this time so far confused2
I am able to sit down for a few hours a few times a day
and play music & sing and take my mind off what the world
is going through.
Yes it is true "Music is the Magic Medicine" keys

How are you coping during this so far....?
I hope playing music is helping to ease the pain.

also hearing and seeing other Szoners sharing their recordings is a daily thrill
also keep them coming people please
we all learn from each other.. cool2

Been playing the piano mostly and just stuf I feel like plaing but got back to the BK9 to learn a song. Always wanted to tackle "Lovely Day" and I fount a pretty good Style to do it in. "Cute Pop" so we'll se how it works out.

BTW anyone with a BK7M I just ordered a stand for it from Sweetwater. Gibraltar 6713E and a mounting plate SC Emmp A lot cheaper than the Rolane one. I Don't have it yet but looks like it will work. I'll post the results.

yes, we're doing ok ... as I've said previously, having our now 1 year old great granddaughter living with us right now is a blessing, as she is a great distraction from everything else, and is my best audience when I'm playing kb and singing ...
As long as the weather is ok, we are walking every day ... yesterday we visited my wife's sister and brother in law - outside sitting in lawn chairs, fully masked and about 12 feet apart from each other ...
Also spend some time reading some scripture, and our Church is streaming daily Mass on YouTube and face book, so we can watch anytime we want ...
Also, we try to watch our Gov's press conference each day ... other than that, we stay away from any newscast ... don't need the 'hyper-anxiety' ...
There are ways to pass the time if one looks for them ...
Stay well, stay safe,
God Bless

I have not touched the keyboard in more than 2 weeks, and to be perfectly honest, I don't have the desire. I'm too damned sick, beat up and somewhat depressed to play anything. Most of my days are spent doing pretty much nothing at all.

Glad the rest of you are doing well and staying occupied,

Even if one has no desire to 'do' anything, you tube has an unending library of musical performances of every genre ...
Yesterday I watched 'Andrea Boccelli in Tuscani'

beautiful ...AND he has never sung with a woman who wasn't drop dead gorgeous ... well, maybe Celine ... wink

But I have to be honest I am wearing thin and bored continually
playing all day looking out a window. Hearing the same songs,
same styles, same sounds, the routine is getting dull, humdrum, lifeless, monotonous, etc. Oh well one of these days it will hopefully back to some kind of different normal.

Why not take on something new to challenge you. If not piano,something you could envision learning.
