On Behalf Of Stephen Barbone
Just watch all the white folks in the audience clapping on 1 and 3.
That's 2 beat. ;-)
Don't be too cruel, Stephen. Most western folk music is based on 1 & 3,
therefore the folks tend to hear that first. Spanish folk music is 1 &
3 (other than the 3/4 times), and they will go for that first when
clapping. I go out in the audience and physically help some that are
struggling (especially if she's cute!).
