The Piano Man speaks, goes home. You may recall that I called bullshit when this story broke. Turns out I was sort of right, although I don't know if this qualifies as a hoax or not and if so, it's hard to tell who was doing the hoaxing:
He was subsequently led to a piano in the hospital's chapel where his four-hour performance was described by Michael Camp, his social worker, as "really amazing".
Now it is suggested that he merely tapped at one key repeatedly.
So, he was faking his amnesia and couldn't really play the piano. I guess sometimes fiction is stranger than fact.
You seem to be missing an alternative explanation - that the social worker actually found four hours of him tapping one note "amazing." Hey, it could happen.
