This man is truly a remarkable pianist.
If you haven't already seen it, here's the video.
I hope he turns his life around.

Likewise. He’s been on my mind and in my prayers. He also got me interested in Styx!

Donald Gould is a well known figure in Sarasota and he’s had a tough life due to substance abuse. Don has been arrested many, many times for drugs, and his wife died from an overdose. He says he has a son who just graduated from high school. I also believe he was originally asked to leave Spring Arbor College due to drugs. He has a lot of problems and has refused help in the past. I hope this new found fame will motivate him to change his life.

Over 2/3 of homeless are addicts/alcoholics and/or mentally ill.
Don’t know in his case, but it would be probable. Both can be overcome.
Chances are unless he truly wants to change, he will not get there.

He’s a piano player, not a pianist. Talk about dumbing music down. Too bad he isn’t black. He’d really be in the big time.

I hope he is able to use his gifts (both from God and the people who have helped him) to turn his life around.

Our local college is giving him a free ride to college at Spring Arbor Christian College here in Michigan. He went three years then left after his wife died. He fought depression, drugs, etc.
Gofundme fund has raised 30K for him.

How did he keep in practice? I used to play 15 years ago, but then work and family meant that I play maybe once a month and I can feel how sucky I play. And this guy is GOOD!
