At 6:30 PM. Robert was sitting in a balloon from Ruud Tibbert's Company High Level Ballooning

At this time, the crowd of over 10,000 spectators was watching the 20 other balloons take off. The last balloon was Robert's. As the sun began to set, Robert and his piano were taking off. The crowd was amazed and with the help of modern technology, they continued to enjoy Robert's performance long after his balloon was out of sight.The total sound system was treated by Sonic Wave Production.
