Corn2 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Was it Rackhams that had a grand piano and someone playing it ,think it was near the escalator. I worked at Rackhams between 1978 and 1986 and don't remember anyone playing a grand piano at all, although I did hear about an orchestra supposedly playing in the entrance to the restaurant which must have been way before my time there. I'm not saying you're wrong about the piano Donna btw, it's just that I don't remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
