Recently after playing a show, I had a guy come up to me and say "you guys are really good, but you need to work on your timing. I couldn't even find the beat on that last song, somebody was always early".

I then went on the explain 3/4 time to this guy, which was way over his head evidently.

Just thought this was slightly humorous and I would share.

Cheers

Ah, another music "expert" stumped.

As long as you were actually all playing in time, that is...

Haha, pretty sure we were.

He then went on to tell me how awesome his metal band was... (insert joke here).

Some people just think they are musical experts as Psycho mentioned. I have had comments like this thrown my way too, I generally just take them as a grain of salt and am like "whatever." As for metal band...should of asked him what the best bass for metal is? Probably the one he plays of course.
