		<description><![CDATA[Piano bar performers can play a lot of songs, that doesn&#8217;t always mean that they should. Here are 10 songs that are great in the right context, but if you&#8217;re in a piano bar full of people who came out to have a great time, avoid these songs at all costs. 1. Led Zeppelin &#8211; Stairway to Heaven Sure, this song is amazing, a great band having one of their finest moments but at the piano bar, no one wants to sit through 8 minutes of this. Few players can really sing it well, and even if they did, it kind of falls short without the flutes and guitars and other instruments that make up this classic. Within a minute or 2 people will be screaming at the piano player to &#8220;Stop! for Love Of GOD! STOP!&#8221;, or they will just leave, either way, this song is a knife through the heart of any party. 2. Meatloaf &#8211; Paradise by the Dashboard Light Another song with a length issue. On the record this songs weaves it&#8217;s way through the story of a guy and girl hooking up and the emotions that go with it. Sitting at the piano with one<br />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ukelele? Check. Upright bass? Check. Piano? Check. Guitar, accordion, bells and drums? Check. Harmonies in tune? Check. Then here you have our latest video A sweet, jazzy tune about romantic longing. Recorded in our garage in Las Vegas with our friends Theo Sidemon on drums and Russell Snyder on upright bass, ukelele and backup vocals. Charles sang the lead and played the piano and I filled in the rest. The video is another variation on the &#8216;Subterranian Homesick Blues&#8217; video done by Bob Dylan in the 60&#8242;s. (I&#8217;m on the pavement, thinkin&#8217; &#8217;bout the government) I couldn&#8217;t whip my cards as fast as Bob Dylan so we has to put longer phrases on the cards. The cards were drawn by Valiant who did a great job. I found him on craigslist and he did an excellent job at a fair price. Enjoy Waiting and Wanting]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A night out at a piano bar is like no other. Maybe you&#8217;ve been to a small intimate place where people gather around the piano and sing, or maybe you&#8217;ve been to a rocking dueling piano bar which has more of the feel of a crazy rock show. No matter which kind you&#8217;ve been to you&#8217;ll find a few common elements, one is song requests, the favorite songs in the room are the lifeblood of any piano show. Secondly you&#8217;ll you&#8217;ll hear singing, lots and lots of singing. In a piano bar the audience is as much of a performer as the piano player. Here are the 10 songs the people love to request and sing the most. 10. Baby Got Back &#8211; Sir Mix-A-Lot Yes THAT Baby Got Back, the rap about big butts (and I cannot lie) from the 80&#8242;s&#8230;. in the piano bar. It&#8217;s true. People don&#8217;t necessarily request songs at the piano bar that have lots of piano in them, they just request songs they like, and people LOOOOOOOVVEE this anthem to the booty. This song invariably results in lot&#8217;s of ladies storming the stage to shake what their mommas&#8217; gave &#8216;em and everybody from baby<br />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you think of Rock n Roll you generally think of guitar but the piano has been there pounding out great riffs since the very beginning. The classic guitar opening to Chuck Berry&#8217;s Johnny B Goode was said to have been stolen from Berry&#8217;s piano player Johnnie Johnson. Here are 10 rock piano riffs that fight for attention with the guitars and come out on top. This is not a list in order but these riffs are bound to light up any room. 10. Clocks &#8211; Coldplay Not too many songs are instantly recognizable from the opening piano riff but this is one of them. A simple descending arpeggio pattern that snakes it&#8217;s way into your brain and stays there forever. Coldplay have a lot of songs the feature the piano right up front but none of their other riffs have the power of this one. 9. Joe Jackson &#8211; Steppin&#8217; Out This skates dangerously close to being jazz but jazzers would scoff at this simple row of triads that make up this memorable riff. The stark drum machine and bassline accompaniment allow room for the piano chords to ring across this track. 8. Fool in the Rain &#8211; Led<br />]]></description>

Wish I could show it to you but it is still making the rounds to various festivals and such so that is the only place you can see it right now. Check out the trailer to get a feel for what this movie is about. &#8216;Misusing Irony&#8217; Clip from Benchwarmer Production on Vimeo.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I saw a list of piano rock songs recently that didn&#8217;t have any Elton John, Billy Joel, Ben Folds, or any of the actual piano rock greats. I couldn&#8217;t ignore this and had to make a more definitive list. Chuck Berry was famously quoted as saying that the riff to Johnny B Goode was just Berry trying to copy what his piano player Johnnie Johnson was doing. The piano has always been at the heart of rock and roll and here are 10 giants of piano rock, in no particular order. 1. Old Time Rock and Roll &#8211; Bob Seger The opening notes of this song are the 8 most famous piano notes in rock and roll. Since the 80&#8242;s this riff has been synonymous with Tom Cruise&#8217;s underwear. A great 3 chord banger that still rocks rooms to this day 2. Angry Young Man &#8211; Billy Joel Trying to pick pick just one Billy Joel song for a list like this is impossible and this submission alone could inspire gigs and gigs of debate, but I&#8217;m going to go with Angry Young Man because of the prelude, an amazing display of technical skill but melodic and memorable at the<br />]]></description>

It&#8217;s in the downtown area on University, once you&#8217;re in the area you can&#8217;t miss it.
