This is getting fun! OK, let me ask you this. How many times you screamed when a singer started to count off with 1 and 3? You won't be able to start playing if swing tune wasn't counted off on 2 and 4. For the same deal, you can't start playing Brazilian song if it were not counted off 1 and 2, and no way if Reggae wasn't counted off with 1 and 3. To tell you the truth, I didn't know you can't count 2 and 4 in Reggae until I was invited to perform with their native musicians in Kingston. Heck, Skank comping is played on 2 and 4. I thought you count along with them :-( -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
