Attention : Yamaha recall

Post by ken k »

*ATTENTION*

Yamaha has recalled 20,000 pianos due to a problem with the pedal sticking, causing pianists to play faster than they normally would, resulting in a dangerous number of accidentals. The sticky pedal also makes it harder for pianists to come to a full stop at the end of a piece making it extremely risky for audiences.

Although there have been a tremendous number of accidentals, fortunately it has so far caused no deafs. Analysts are wondering if it will put a damper on their bass market and if they will be able to sustain sales.
Parliament is also considering calling in the President of Yamaha for questioning as to when the company first learned about the treble.


Fast action is fingered as a key strategy to this unfortunate black note on an otherwise sound board. So far, they are soft-pedalling the entire score. A manuscript will be presented in duo time.

Anticipation accelerates.

That's some of the best satire I've read in a long, long time.

Apparently satire is his forté
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
