I didn't know Mick could play piano. Did you?

Is this old news? It's new to me.

He can play guitar too...

He played a harpsichord on rumours, but Ken said they had to mark the keys for him with tape.

Mick is a man of many talents. He can ride a unicycle, he can paint bucolic landscapes in oils, and he can bend over backward in a yoga posture until onlookers scream, "Mick! You're going to break something!"

News to me as well, Viv!! I figured he had some other talents we didn't know about though!

His most amazing talent was bringing you back to The Ledge!

I remember Mick was promoting Atari in the music trade magazines awhile back.Yes Mick is very talented.

I'm not sure Mick is actually playing piano in the traditional sense. I think that device only plays notes in a selected key. All Mick is doing is tapping out a rhythm while the notes change as he moves up or down the device, but only notes in that key are played. He's never actually at risk of hitting a wrong note.

Little factoid: Jimmy Hotz also produced Dave Mason's "Two Hearts" album in 1987.

^^ Um, yeah... In fact, the whole point of this Hotz Translator gizmo is to enable a non-musician to compose music (albeit, crappy music). Mick is pretty much saying, "lookie here... even I can do it!"
