1. Self-hypnosis*cough* I don't like that very much.
maybe you should have used your metronome to help you count ths one...or go back to kindergarten.
I prefer the latter. or the ladder.
211. Counting...
I have two others, a Dr. Beat (with dead batteries, but it can go up to something like 330 beats a second) and then an old Tempus that I can stuff in my case -- it gives a nice loud tick with a red light.
I love old-fashioned one best, though. Rhythm needs motion, yes?
Thank you for this list, Emily. Now that I don't have to practice excerpts, I will be looking at all these other uses for my metronomic machinery...
Danielle, the numbers are good. You can relax now, I promise.
Laurie, I do hope your audition went well. I bet you're relieved.

Tom, you're right. 7 years is too long. 6 would have been perfect. Now I must stay for 28. That will be perfect, too. :)
Keith, I don't have a cat, so I haven't gotten to try that out. I don't know if it's morally acceptable to buy a cat for the primary purpose of torturing.
To truly be great, one must overcome at least one nemesis.
Tell me, what tempo should I use if I want to communicate with the dead? I'd like to get in touch with Oistrakh!
