@DanMorgan just a different kind of nerd…
-
@DanMorgan 5/4 is of course Mission Impossible day.
-
@DanMorgan Sorry US Americans, Swedes had it already last month.
@paavi @DanMorgan April is so last month you mean?
-
@DanMorgan Ironically, the most iconic of the songs in 5/4 (and other seemingly unusual signatures) was written by … Paul Desmond
@greg_montreal
Or, arguably, by Roger Waters.

@veronica @DanMorgan Nope, 5/4 is literally fifth of April in Sweden in casual everyday use, the notation in this case is d/m.

@paavi Exactly. Last month.

@DanMorgan Frank Zappa says you’re gonna
wind up working in a gas station -

@DanMorgan@Eetschrijver @greg_montreal @DanMorgan if you’re thinking of Time, that’s 7/4
Edit: derp, Money

@veronica akkurat

@bascule
Time is 4/4. I was thinking about Money, which is indeed 7/4 (except for the instrumental break). But it said "and other unusual time signatures".

@greg_montreal @DanMorgan@Eetschrijver @greg_montreal @DanMorgan err whoops yeah Money, which goes back into 4/4 because David Gilmour refused to play a guitar solo in 7/4

@bascule
Yep. Or at least, that's what Waters assumed.
@greg_montreal @DanMorgan -
@DanMorgan This is also *very* nerdy. Possibly more so.

@DanMorgan @caelarue nerds: 5/4 is the fifth of April

@DanMorgan Also the main section of Genesis' "Down and Out" is 5/4 so let's throw most of prog rock in there today too:

@DanMorgan Who is the bigger nerd? The music nerd or the star wars nerd?
-
@DanMorgan @caelarue nerds: 5/4 is the fifth of April
@labria @DanMorgan Not in the US, because (just like our refusal to adopt the metric system) we are weirdly stubborn about the strangest things.
-
@DanMorgan@vmst.io
star wars is about the least nerdy, most pop-cultury thing there is for the past 2 decades. -
@DanMorgan I heard the first four attempts to get this picture were scrapped, but they finally got it on...
Take Five.
