A couple of years ago, one of the angriest comment threads ever on Music Thing concerned a bunch of students in Aberystwyth who bought a piano on Freecycle, put it on a beach, burned it, and said it was art. Today, YouTube is stuffed with people being mean to pianos. Damn, you must have had some bad piano teachers...
- Throw it off a cliff, set fire to it
- Shoot it with shotguns and an AK47
- Knock it over and jump on it
- Jens Johansson (who is Yngwie Malmsteen's keyboard player) smashes up an old piano while giggling hysterically
- Back a pickup truck into it
- Play it with a JCB digger (this one really is the stuff of nightmares)
- Drive over it in an enormous truck
- Put on a leather coat and fill it with fireworks
- Smash it and sample it
- Fire it from a trebuchet (or here at Burning Man, where presumably it's performance art)
- Throw it down a hill
- Burn it and call it art (again)
- Pull it off the back of a moving pickup truck
- Drag it behind a pickup truck
- Chop it with an axe
- Hit it with a sldege hammer
- Throw it off a building (Warning: Video contains giggling MIT students, where they've been doing it since 1972)
- Bash two together
- Drop it off a fork lift truck
- Drive a car into a piano shop
- Blow it up
- In the interests of fairness, here's an organ getting smashed by giggling metal fans
- Use a burning acoustic guitar to set it alight
- Throw stuff at it
- Blow up a grand piano with really a lot of TNT
