That song would make me ashamed to be Romanian.

I'd find it hilarious to hear that "Gary" was found dead in a bathroom.

Sunshine 06-13-2006 02:05 AM

Apparently the Romanians are pretty proud of it.

I mean, how often do Romanian bands make it huge in the States?

...it's almost 1 AM, and nobody's on or anything, so I think I'm going to like. Go. To bed or something. G'night now.

Maggot Dream 06-13-2006 02:07 AM

I'd agree with you, but I don't think many people went out and bought their album because of it, or even knew it was O-Zone.

If their fame comes from a fat guy dancing in front of a webcam, I pity them.

Jezen 06-13-2006 02:09 AM

^^^
I saw the parodies before the original..

Maggot Dream 06-13-2006 02:10 AM

Yeah, I think pretty much everyone did.

Well, I gotta get to bed, I've been getting an average of 3 hours of sleep per day for the last 6 days, due to Wakarusa. Totally worth it though. Goodnight.

Not to bring the argument back up, but just saying. Would doing say, triplets in 3/4 on the feet whilst doing a snare roll in 4/4 on the hands count? I wasn't sure on thattun. I know the triplets can be done in 4/4 though, which renders having mulitple time signatures obsolete, but could that idea work?

TojesDolan 06-13-2006 03:16 AM

Yeah so... not trying to bring up the subject again, but here's a little explanation I tried to do and I suppose it's correct, but then again I might be talking things I'm not aware of:

FFS If you guys can't end this already, I WILL! :evil:

Atman, and anybody else who thinks that playing in multiple time signiatures is possible: [B]It is not possible[/B]. You are getting time signiatures mixed with groupings.

The most obvious example is straight from Marco Minneman's 'Extreme Drumming'.

In the first example, Marco solos in what appears to be contrasting time signiatures on different limbs. Sure, each limb plays a different time signiature, but you can't notate these at the same time. A sheet of music can [B]NOT[/B] have different sigs playing at the same time.

Anyway, Marco plays a 7 note ostinato with his feet:

7/16
[FONT="Courier New"]BD|o-o-o--|
HF|-x-x-xx|[/FONT]

On top of this, he plays a 5 note ostinato with one hand:

5/16
[FONT="Courier New"]H1|x-x--|[/FONT]

And a 9 note ostinato with the other:

9/16
[FONT="Courier New"]H2|x-x-x-x--|[/FONT]


Lovely. So we have established that [I]individually[/I], these patterns are in different time sigs. But when you put them together, you have to fuse them all into one time sig. But which signiature shall we put them into? The answer is, IT DOESN'T MATTER! Just for examples sake, we put them in 4/4. Everything else is odd, so we may aswell use something common...

4/4

Ming-a-Ling 06-13-2006 07:45 AM

God damn...So I left my place about an hour ago for work. I made it about 2 miles down the road to find out the road I need to take to get to work is compeltely closed because of a wreck. Traffic is so freaking bad in the only other direction I can go it took me 45 minutes to drive 2 miles. I said **** it and came home.

Drum Phil 06-13-2006 07:47 AM

Well i think you should listen to the hitchers to make up for it.

Jezen 06-13-2006 10:17 AM

Chat up a stuardess.

styler 06-13-2006 10:44 AM

obviously going to.

Janeway 06-13-2006 01:29 PM

I'm home.

=/
Isn't this supposed to be the biggest event of my life?
It just feels like a Friday.


Someone threw a dead pig out of a window on the third story onto the hood of the superintendant's Mercedes. =3

Ming-a-Ling 06-13-2006 01:39 PM

What? You didn't break into song and dance upon finishing the school day? How lame.

Just kiddin'. Nah, finishing high school isn't that big of a deal. I've only been out like 6 years, and it seems really really insignificant when I look back on it.

Congrats on making it through though, it's definetly something that's nice to get out of your way.

Janeway 06-13-2006 01:43 PM

Oh my god. You didn't have a 'oh noes u failed maths imsogoodraraara' comment!
Very good!

Ming-a-Ling 06-13-2006 01:44 PM

I figured since this really is as probably good as it's going to get for you, I'll give you your moment.

Janeway 06-13-2006 01:49 PM

Stfu, art school boy.

jalel 06-13-2006 01:51 PM

^any plans for the future Cube?

Janeway 06-13-2006 01:57 PM

Not go to a crappy art institute and waste my life away at a dead end animation job, that's for sure.

Nah.
I'm going to NCCC for the craptastic humanities and social science degree program, and then I'm going to transfer to Fredonia or Buffstate for either something to do with english or music.
I'm still undecided.

I'm not sure if I should laugh because it's funny, or cry because it's true.
This is the only future I see for myself

I'm going to probably stay in games until I come close to or acheive a nervous breakdown and completely lose any sense of humor or personable qualities I may have. After that happens I am going to become a teacher. I will be so hateful and negative that all of the kids will fight as hard as possible to win my approval. I will become the most respected in teacher in the school because of my horrible attitude that the kids will think my word is as good as Gods, although I will be feeding them lines of crap that I later contradict. Eventually one or kids will catch on how full of **** I am, but they won't be able to sway the masses. After years of seeing horrible student animation after horrible student animation I will lose hope in the animation industry, tell the kids their pursuits are completely dumb founded and they are wasting their lives trying to make it in an industry that they have no talent for and then quit. I will then be unemployeed for 2, maybe 3 years, after which I will open up an Drum and Percussion/Music shop. I will enjoy a lucrative business for a few years, but then discover some of, if not all of, my employees have been stealing from me. That will cause me to completely lose trust in anyone I hire meaning I will have to be in the store from opening till closing. Due to this my wife will leave me. I'll be depressed, but being paranoid and anti-social will cause me to not shut down the shop and take a short vacation. Business will eventually slow down and my shop will be on the verge of going under. At that time I'll turn to weed. My newly realized love for marijuana will prompt a personal revalation and I will begin selling water pipes and other paraphernalia. Business will boom again, but soon all the dumb pot head kids will start hanging out in my store bringing much attention to it from their parents who come looking for them and discover my shady dealings. Eventually the police will raid my store, and I'll be thrown in jail. Not being able to afford bail, I'll have to sell the shop. I'll then get out of jail and realize what a mess I've made of my life and try to go crawling back to my wife, who will have remarried. I'll then die cold and lonely.

Janeway 06-13-2006 02:07 PM

Homg, wtf.
Long paragraph.

Can you like...record yourself saying that, 'cause that's a sure lot to read...


Edit: I read it.
You should add in WHO Janna leaves you for.
:3

Ming-a-Ling 06-13-2006 02:10 PM

Since the experience of being with me will drive her away from men I can only imagine it'd be some fat lesbian who gorges herself on ground beef.

And on that note...I need to get back to work.

Janeway 06-13-2006 02:12 PM

Ground beef cooked in fatty little patties, covered in mayonnase, ketchup, mustard, and onions, with a huge slab of slightly melted american cheese, thank you very much.

And besides.
It's better than some mexican with a small dick and a fried bean problem.

Sunshine 06-13-2006 02:59 PM

That description of so-called "food" almost made me hurl.

This country and it's food has a major tendancy to blow =/

Janeway 06-13-2006 03:04 PM

Have you ever eaten outside of this country??

The Ska Man 06-13-2006 03:06 PM

You guys have such a healthy relationship.

Sunshine 06-13-2006 03:08 PM

No, I didn't eat the entire 3 years I lived in Japan.

Plan B. 06-13-2006 03:12 PM

I could live on rice I like it so much.

Janeway 06-13-2006 03:14 PM

Because I'm supposed to know that you lived in Japan, right?
