When A Passing Stranger Totally Rocks At The Piano

[@jamez123123]

Ha! A total pleasure to meet you Dr. K! 😎🎹 Didn’t we have fun? How refreshing. It felt like normal times, simply meeting a new music friend (on the way to a gig!) and having a fun spontaneous jam and seeing what happened along the way… and little did we know it would finish with Fagin from Oliver! 🤪😂

[@DrKBoogieWoogie]

Yes, I do wish the Fagin was the whole song but Nick stopped singing too soon! Next time, James, next time.....

[@foxibot]

You remind me of Jerry Lee the way you stomp boy! And ma defan papa knew all those greats from Louisiana hayride! You’d think you were born down in the Delta doing that. C’est ca bon!

[@fifthbusiness1678]

I find it hard to believe that most people just walk by and don’t even look, let alone listen, to this live music being played, and of the highest caliber. This was marvellous. Thank you once again for a few joyous moments, Brendan.

Most people who watch hide behind the camera since they don’t wanna get in the way of filming. He likely has a hoard of people behind that cam.

[@lynnhamilton6385]

@@liguow Solved!!! One of life's great mysteries. I've always been astonished that there weren't gobs of folks standing around taking in Dr. K's glorious, joyious, rock-us boogie woogie orgies. (Sometimes there are.) Anyway, thx again, Brendan, for keeping it sweet underground during Covid.

[@josephscott4695]

Exactly. It's inexplicable, but I saw them walk right past Yo Yo Ma playing cello at an Underground stop. He got scarcely a glance from the crowds as he performed his magic...for FREE! Wow, you'd pay 200 bucks for a ticket to see this virtuoso in concert. More if you hoped to get that close!

[@thereisnospoon52]

To walk by that without even a glance, you gotta be, I mean, like what, umm huh? Maybe a sleepwalker?

[@MrKbtor2]

Just when I thought I had seen the peak of the epic videos this one comes along.

[@bernadettehawes]

The concentration of this guy!!!! He’s playing two hands, standing on one leg, and tapping with his other one! Genius!

[@barbaramattila6065]

Isn't wonderful that others have no hesitation to jump right in and hit the keys and beat out a tune to match Dr. K and get good attention from the public and recognition from Dr. K . Great from all of us their public viewers who watch and listen

[@singingintherain583]

Yes he has met his match there.😂

[@thesteaktc]

This is just unbelievably good. That professional pianist is so talented. Amazing to see someone play so easily and so well. He’s really got something special. As he said, pretty much born like it. You don’t get like that from just having some piano lessons and practising. He’s got a special part of the brain that allows him to be this good.

[@REP46520]

Genius are these gentlemen

[@hawaiicutefactory]

So many people just walking by and not caring. Pure genius. Great performance!

[@amybradley2514]

[@denisefernekes182]

I agree, I would listen for as long as they played! I’m just running all Dr. Kavanaugh’s KZbin videos…

[@robertsteven3957]

This is why we need more public pianos across the UK and around the world. To spread more positivity and joy like this. The world would be such a better place if more people were like you

[@tiffanybuie2263]

The thing I love about the piano is that you can do this.it can bring two people together to play the same instrument at the same time and end up as something completely different and exciting.(weird analogy but two people playing music together is a bit like making love) I play the guitar for almost 20 years now.i wish I'd learned more piano..🙂 when two people come together just the right way it becomes something beautiful that only becomes better with time.and you're so in tune with eachother its like nothing else exists at the moment.
