Do you play a musical instrument?

Lol whys that?

 

Idk lol. Just never figured u for a piano player

 

Most interesting man......

 

Tell me more

 

I read music also, but I have never figured out what all those circles with sticks are and why some are black and some have flags. Also don't understand why some songs say play 2/3 hard while some say 3/4, and others say 6/8. Isn't that the same thing?

 

That's part of what I need brushed up on. I know the top number is the beats per measure

 

He was kidding, nerd.

 

What other part or parts do you need brushed up? I got just the thing for them.....

 

Don't be ornery. I know he was being facetious.

 

The mouth organ?

 

In time

 

Thanks for not ending that question with a preposition. I was too lazy to restructure mine

 

Good things come to those that wait

 

Isn't up a preposition.

 

Not today lol

 

That doesn't have tied notes or dots (basically shorthand for tied notes).

Top number is beats per measure, bottom number is what kind of a note counts as a beat. I think it's more of a feel thing with 3/4 and 6/8, there's not a real difference.

 

This confuses me. Why is the whole note the smallest symbol? That flies in the face of all the math I've ever been exposed to.

 

I got nothin'.

I think a lot of the written notation had to do with chants, etc. Maybe they were working backwards or something.

Although I guess when you have relatively uncommon stuff like 64th notes, it's easier to add a flag than take something away/make it smaller.

If I ever saw this:



I think I would walk out.

 

I got a uke, the uke tuner app, the uke chords app, and I'm ready to be the next Asian guy who plays Beatles songs incredibly well on the uke without the well or Asian. Go Pooch!

 

Because it was invented by what is now present day Iraq
