The perfect living arrangement
Man, I have wanted to live in a single room for a long time. I don’t like apartments with hallways and walls and shit like that. I feel like they’re uselessly chopping up my square footage.
What I really want is to live in a single room that has everything I need, like studio apartment, except I want a studio apartment somewhere where I can bang on a grand piano whenever I want and not bother anyone. Grand pianos are LOUD, by the way.
I had a chance to play a big Yamaha grand for a few minutes the other day, and it was really great. They feel so good. I washed my hands before I played it. Oh, and when I was in college I got to play a big Steinway in a recital hall with all that nice natural reverb. It was pretty epic. I wasn’t giving a recital, the hall was empty. It was bad ass, though.
I forget how good and full those things sound. On my little keyboard at home I usually play double bass notes with my left hand, but on a real grand piano it’s overkill.
Something the size of a large storage space with a piano and my bed and my desk in it would be completely awesome. I hope I get a setup like that some day.
Those big Yamahas only cost around 30k too, they’re not that expensive when compared to something like a Steinway at more like 100k and up. SO, I figure I can buy the tiniest house in the world someday and get the bank to roll in the cost of a pretty nice grand piano while they’re at it.
