Members pogo97 Posted May 5, 2018 Members Share Posted May 5, 2018 Better than them marching out when you play a waltz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members senorblues Posted May 6, 2018 Members Share Posted May 6, 2018 My wife and I just got back from a Duke Robillard concert. Great band! I was listening to his laid back vocal phrasing . . . until I realized that most of the time he's singing in 3/4 . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shaster Posted May 7, 2018 Members Share Posted May 7, 2018 Steve, your story has an interesting twist. Are they milling about or are they organized and in a line, dance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members skmarshall Posted May 7, 2018 Members Share Posted May 7, 2018 I know Duke Robillard as a customer from the many years I worked at Rhode Island Music. He always credited his unique playing style to his learning to solo by listening to horn players instead of other guitarists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members senorblues Posted May 7, 2018 Members Share Posted May 7, 2018 He's 70 - my age. He's clearly coming at this from the jazz, rather than rock, school. Drums, bass, keys as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Notes_Norton Posted May 7, 2018 Members Share Posted May 7, 2018 I hate it when people waltz into one of my gigs when I am clearly playing 4/4 I get amused when I play a waltz and see people with 3 different interpretations of where the first beat of the measure is. I see some heads rising on 1, others on 2 and others on 3. It's what I call a 'floor show'. Notes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
