I got a buddy that always tells the tail of seeing Kansas somewhere in Kentucky and catching the violin player backstage. The dude is shirtless and smoking and my friend asks, β€œYou just played a tune with 13 beats to the measure to a crowd of hillbillies and they loved it! What’s the secret to playing super complicated music and getting people who haven’t studied it for years to like it!?” Dude just took a big long drag on his cigarette and then said, β€œDon’t tell β€˜em it’s in 13.”
