This guy, who calls himself "The Blindfolded Pianist," has gone through all of Super Mario Bros and figured out the sheet music for it.

Yeah this is sweet. It's kind of hard to convert piano music to violin music. Sometimes you lose a lot just playing the treble clef (sp?). I tried once with Zelda and smb.

Somewhere I saw a video of a guy wearing a blindfold and playing that music on the piano. It's a pretty good rendition, but I'm too lazy to find it again.

I don't play the piano so maybe I am way off here, but if you are good at an instrument shouldn't you be able to play with a blindfold anyway?

As an experiment my next paragraph will be typed blindfolded. I'm serious, I won't cheat.

This is me typing blindgolded. I have the sneaking suspicion this might now work out so well. Ok, I am going to see how well I did.

Not so bad... and I don't even know how to type. I use like 4 fingers. ; )

Yeah, a blindfold on a trained musician is pretty much a red herring. I only mentioned it because I figured that meant he was probably the famed "Blindfolded Pianist."
