Our mate Lachy played some fantastic Fender Rhodes piano and trumpet on our upcoming EP, and he also happens to be one of our two valued blog followers. The other day he was digging around his old video collection and found this gem.
Back in Year 10 we were forced to do Community Care, much like young German kids many years ago who were forced to join the Hitler Youth. Anyhow it actually turned out to be pretty enjoyable as we were assigned to a ratty nursing home and were given carte blanche to take a keyboard along and entertain the residents by pressing the demo button.
In our eight or so visits to various nursing homes, no one ever caught on to our little scam, and although it was designed purely to con the elderly residents, even the staff believed I was the finest exponent of the ivory (plastic) keys since Chick Corea. Who was I to shatter the beliefs of these spellbound people as they burst into rapturous applause at the end of each number?
A demo version of My Heart Will Go On by the inimitable Celine Dion is also apparently on tape somewhere, however until that is uncovered you'll have to settle for this.
