mole day

ahhh Avogadro... where are you now?

so, my day today will be marked by the fact that i can finally count the beats to "death of an interior decorator" from transatlanticism. i had to be taught, because i couldn't figure it out. the following takes place over two days, and entirely over txt messaging.

"it's in 3/4"
"oh. ok."

...

"yeah.... still can't do it. ain't no drum major no more!"

...

"+1+ (bass drum and cymbal) 2,3 (snare hit)"

...
[several starts at the cd player, lots of tapping and head nodding, and counting out loud]

"holy shit! i got it! where have you been all my life?"

so, it was a good day. first read through for Wonder of the World tonight.
