Tim Nettleton playing Maple Leaf Rag July 1998

This was a talent contest and I was just 16 years old. Yes, I made a few mistakes and I did accelerate. There were over 1,000 people at the talent show and I played the piano wearing white cotton gloves...not easy to do.

One of the tricks that we did to make the piano sound tinkery is to lay metal coat hangers inside the piano on top of the strings. Gives it a bit of a metalic rattle.

My mother Dottie Cayocca was filming and this was just prior to my Junior year in Harrison Central High School.

Hey Danny. My Mother Dottie was married to Iver(third husband). Iver is the man I call dad as my engineering, math, computer experience is based on his career. I learned the Basic programming language at 9 because he got a TI-99/4A computer. I grew from 5-16 with him as my dad.  After Iver and my mother split up, Iver remarried in Miami,FL and we lost touch. Are you related to the Miami, FL Iver?

Yes, I agree too fast. Don't forget I was playing this with cotton gloves on also. Give that a try some time. I had slipped a bunch of metal coat hangers over the strings of the piano to make it more tinny.
