Pianoless Don Music

[Don_Music_2004]

This question is mainly for those of you who watched Sesame Street regulary in the 70's and 80's. Has anyone ever seen Don Music without his Piano?

He also didn't have a piano in the game show "Mystery Guest." And he banged his head on the panel when he got the answer wrong.

I remember that too.

It was in a 1991 episode when they redid Hooper's Store and they had the grand opening. Don dragged his Piano in before anyone was even supposed to be in there, and Mr. Hooper and Gina told him he's not supposed to come in the store. And Don sang a song about Hooper's store that went Hooper's Hooper's Hooper's they've got everything you....... everything you......... Oh I'll never get it NEVER!" This was Don's very last appearance on the show. Richard Hunt died a year later and the charachter was never brought back. It was episode 2795 and if anyone wants it Ssetta has it on a DVD, just Email him.

I got two questions.What clips are on there and Why did they tell him that he's not supposed to be in Hooper's Store

 

[Dantecat]

How did you get it on DVD?

You must mean "Mr. HANDFORD and Gina".


I don't remember this skit, but I do remember a similar one in the late eighties (Sadly, you can tell what era it's from because Northern Calloway does not look healthy)

Don Music has his piano in Hooper's store. David tells him that this is not what he had in mind when he talked about getting some music in the store. Don then proceeds to sing songs about how David "chops, chops, chops, until the chopping's done" and " cooks, cooks, cooks" and similar adjectives. The skit ends with an exasperated David saying, "All I had in mind was a little transistor radio." I don't know if this skit was originally part of a larger storyline, but whenever I saw it, the skit just appeared randomly during any show during the late 80's.

I remember the episode Don Music 2004 is talking about. Also I believe that parents were calling in because their children were banging their heads on things similiar to Don Music.

I did it myself on several occasions...kind of still do it...

Actually, I think David had in mind a little tape player, not a radio.

I think it was in the mystery guest skit in Season 30
