I don’t think we could be so lucky as to get Dead and Co. or anyone else to do the halftime show at our Bowl Game.

No. Waltzes are in 3/4.

The Dead often would superimpose 6/8 drum beats, or basically a steady diet of triplets, over 4/4 rock beats. They’d also do what you said. I once told a buddy of mine that Dead sings weee often very complex and he was surprised. It takes some seriously good musicianship to innovate on the fly and stay together like they did.

For really creative count to The Beatles, “All Tou Need is Love.” It switches all over the place within single lines.

Also the ability to play slow ballads and keep tempo without speeding up

Since they’ve called it a career, probably not. I’m so glad I got to see at least one of the shows last summer in Boulder. I wish I could have seen all three. It was an amazing experience

[AbsoluteUte]

We skipped out last year, but saw all 5 years prior. Wonderful times! Great mt bikihg out of Boulder.

Our best venue/ D&C show though was the Hollywood Bowl.

Does the half-time show last 3+ hours? Because the Dead need 20 minutes just to tune up and chat amongst themselves about the next number…

FWIW, my wife, who grew up in a musically inclined family says that West Texas Town of El Paso is 3/4 time. Flamenco is done to 3/4 time, like a waltz. That is now more music theory than I ever thought to know, mostly it just didn’t interest me.

[HoopUte]

From a practical standpoint there is no difference between 3/4 and 6/8. Without seeing how it’s written is impossible to tell just by listening.

[Carolina_Cycling_Ute]

I have zero clue. I never learned music, let alone how to read sheet music. I can tell when something is off, but couldn’t tell you why or how.

[HoopUte]

So this is you, essentially.

[Carolina_Cycling_Ute]

Yeah, pretty much.

@Carolina_Cycling_Ute

Yes, yes I was born Out in the West Texas town of El Paso.

THANK YOU, Marty Robbins…

Sometimes 6/8 is 2 triplets so more like 2/4. Other times coupled notes making it more 3/4. Thatatters when conducting since when it’s fast enough, 6/8 should be broken down to one of those 2 structures.

Greg Abbott, Ted Cruz, Chip Roy, etc., etc., etc.

Exactly. And sadly, though I still root for the Utes, I have a personal ban on Utah for similar reasons.
