While holidaying in Hawaii a few years ago, there was a rather lonely grand piano in a quiet section of the very upmarket hotel that we were staying at.

My friends had asked many times for me to entertain them with some background cocktail piano. One evening I eventually agreed, and started playing a couple of Jobim's standards. After a short while, a very large female security guard arrived, and while I was playing and without any notice, slammed the fall on my fingers. I guessed that meant she didn't like Antonio Carlos' music, or something similar.

Frankly, the real reason she did it was 'because she could'

I wished that they had that device back then. Would've saved me a lot of pain.
