If you play out on Public Pianos, then you know that there will always been something wrong with it. Almost always it will be out of tune, sometimes by a bit, and sometimes by a lot! There's times when the pedal is squeaky, or worse broken. Often though, there would be a dead key - literally just is the key banging against the key base. So, you just got to work round it, literally! Remember where it is, and skip that key, maybe skip it entirely, or work an octave higher or lower instead. Of course, not all songs and pieces use all the keys, but my arrangements use much of the range, so I do have to remember to avoid the dead keys

That's what happened here on the Elton John's donated Yamaha piano in London St Pancras International Train Station. I mentioned that there was a dead key and my dad did not realise, so I showed him. It doesn't stop me from building the sound though. This is my own piano cover of Guns N' Roses Sweet Child O' Mine - you can still kick out those deep bass, and "feels" even on the a broken piano!
