uuuumh, every experienced piano player could do that.. like experienced guitar players can play without looking

[N D Hill]

Ray Charles (RIP) and Stevey Wonder seem to manage that pretty well too.

[jetpack42]

and they rock

and stevie and ray have about 50 years on the guy.

that was awesome jetpack, thanks for posting it. i know any good pianist could play this, but just the fact that he took the time to adapt it to piano AND write all the sheet music for it shows some major dedication. :)

I take it back... he's great..! :confident :wink:

This is was pretty nice, because I love the classic Mario Bros. music! But at the same time, he played quite sloppily, all jilting in tempo while blindfolded and then even some when he wasn't blindfolded. He could probably play better, but it seems like he was just trying to play fast to impress.
