There is a Fine Line... by Hummbirds

Especially when you have a cut-time piece with a bunch of eighth-notes written on it. Cut-time sucks. Common time (4/4) doesn't.

I'm a flutie too. That's why it's especially annoying because there's always eighth-notes EVERYWHERE.

I get what cut-time is, it's just mentally translating quarters to eighths and eighths to sixteenths that gets me. After a while, I just ignore most of the rhythms and play what I think it should sound like rhythmacaly. Pretty much ignoring note lengths and only paying attention to which notes I should be playing.

I know that, just our band director always puts the tempo really fast and so if we get to a song with cut-time we all diiiiiiiiie.

Yup. I hate it when they do that. X.x (even worse with sixteenths, chromatic scales, and being a flutie.)
