Maybe I shouldn't, but I can't resist sharing this. Make sure you watch the whole thing. http://www.expertvillage.com/video/9...-five-four.htm
This guy has 21 videos on the "Expert Village" site. Several are well worth a look. 
Check out the piano jazz syncopation vid, the experimental jazz vid, and the tutorial on how to play in 11/4.

"So when you're playing or writing or thinking in 5/4, it's really best to start out by thinking in your head and counting along in the count of 5; 1,2,3,4,5; 1,2,3,4,5.
Some people prefer to count to 3 and then 2, which adds up to five. 1,2,3; 1,2; 1,2,3; 1,2; 1,2,3; 1,2"

the 11/4 one is pretty great too, but at least he's actually playing in 11/4 on it.
He's so consistently wrong and bad that I think maybe he's spoofing on the fact that expertvillage is terrible.

He does actually count 1-2-3-4-5, but the five is the first beat of the next 4/4 bar. Except at the end where the conflict causes him to lose it completely.

What he plays I don't care.
Expert Village never has anything from... experts.
