The Batemans Bay University of the Third Age (U3A) joined pianist Ash Morse in belting out tunes including I Still Call Australia Home.
Driver Tom Bartusz had brought the bus-and-bar up from Victoria, having stopped at Bairnsdale the previous day.
Tomorrow it will travel to Stockland Nowra.
AAT managing director Anthony Hayes said the mobile piano bar was nearing the end of a tour to over 30 towns and cities in NSW, Queensland, Victoria and South Australia.
“We love our iPhones and Spotify playlists, but we also remember a time when the musical entertainment came from the piano in the corner of a bar or pub,” he said.
“We want to recreate that sense of community spirit and good old-fashioned fun.”
