Really Free-Stylin’ micro-bloggin’ jammin’:
The Villa Finale Violano Virtuoso in action.

It’s a totally bizarre, turn-of-the-century, player piano with not one, but two violins. All automated. Plays waltzes. Maybe five feet long and four or five feet tall, perhaps two feet deep, it’s loud and weird. When I was giving tours, one curator would occasionally fire it up for a few moments. Originally from the old Buckhorn Saloon in the Pearl Brewery.
