Active reading notes chapter 5

-Gatsby and Daisy meet up for the first time in 5 years.
-there is an awkward tension when daisy and Gatsby first see each other. so Nick pulls Gatsby into the kitchen and tells him to stop acting childish.
-Gatsby only way of impressing daisy seems to be by showing off his possessions.
-Gatsby is scared of being the center of attention. He's used to being able to hide behind other people because he wants people to like him. So during the little date, Gatsby doesn't want Nick to leave.
- by the end of the date, Gatsby and daisyforget about Nick

Does the piano player have any resemblance or meaning? I feel as if there was something there than I missed.
