Free Range by Bill Whitehead for September 17, 2021

“Crapsody” in Blue.

Reminds me of the old MGM Tom & Jerry cartoon where Tom is the concert pianist and Jerry is inside the piano wreaking havoc. There is a scene near the end where Tom almost finishes the Hungarian Rhapsody, only to have Jerry restart the passage and Tom has to try to match the music with his hand motions.

His piano is a real player.

Something tells me that such a stunt has at least been attempted in the past. But I can’t cite the event and I’m too lazy to search for it.

Elon Musk’s new AI still has a few glitches.

Would anyone believe he’s a “ventriloquist” piano player?

LOL!

ha ha ha, he’s a big fat phony. :D

This cartoon reminded me very much of the little corner cartoons found in Mad Magazine. Well done, Mr Whitehead, well done! Bravo!

I once had a car that would do that, carry on after I’d turned it off.

Sneaky..he inserted the Liberace Medley piano roll.

He shouldn’t have installed that “Clap-On/Clap-Off” device on his piano…

There was an episode of the old TV series Batman, where Liberace played a famed concert pianist named Chandelle (and his crooked twin brother), who Batman discovered had been using a player piano in his concerts.

Reminds me of an Abbott & Costello routine. And a “Wienerville” episode.

Taking an intermission in the middle of the concert while holding a roll of “paper towels” should’ve been a tip-off.
