Hundreds turn up for 8-year-old's piano concert after garden sign goes viral
An 8-year-old boy who advertised a "free piano concert" in his front garden had a fantastic surprise when a crowd of hundreds turned up to watch thanks to the power of the internet.
Passerby Thomas Rehbein was cycling home in Minneapolis, Minnesota, earlier this week when he saw a poster advertising the gig in a front garden and decided to create a Facebook event to see if he could attract a crowd.
His message said:
Quickly over 600 people said they would attend.
As Mr Rehbein's later photos show, a large crowd turned out despite the rain.
Some diehard Dylan Spoering fans even turned up with banners.
Dylan himself even gave out cookies to crowds before the show.
One video shows the crowd's excited cheering after Dylan finished a recital:
Another video shows Dylan's audience interaction skills during a break between songs.
"How long have you do you think I was practicing?" he asked.
"Fifteen years," came one reply.
"But I'm only eight," he pointed out.
Over a thousand people also watched a live stream of the concert on the internet.
