LUMPENPROLETARIAT—I used to sneak into the piano rooms at Modesto Junior College. Thanks to a kind soul, who shared his passcode with me to get into the locked closet-like piano rooms. (At the College of San Mateo, the piano rooms were also closet-like, but they were left unlocked during school hours.)
I’d just punch in the code in the door’s keypad, sit down at an upright piano, and run through J Mascis‘ “Everybody Lets Me Down.” That song translates brilliantly to a stripped-down piano accompaniment. Give it a go.
