Eight-year-old Dylan Spoering from Minneapolis put up a sign on his front lawn to invite the public to his free piano concert on 12 July 2014.
His neighbor and fellow musician Tommy Rehbein, who chanced upon his signage, posted it on Facebook to help promote the event, saying “Wouldn't it be cool if a bunch of people showed up for his free concert?”.
Unbeknown to the little boy, the Facebook event went viral and hundreds showed up for the concert with posters in their hands, providing their fullest support, despite of the rain.
The performance lasted 10 minutes, during which Dylan played several pieces from his elementary music books—it was broadcasted live on USTREAM, garnering over 37,000 views.
