Fascinating rhythm

I gave up again. Same class. They love pushing buttons and do so very
well. It was the drummer who got to me. Class had disentegrated and I
was trying to get them out bit he would not let his cronies go. Same,
steady beat. And that's what got to me. After 20 minutes, the groove
has to change.
So I sat at the desk he was pounding on while facing the other way.
When he looked at me, he stopped with a jolt and I picked up. But I
had fun and started modulating with three v four and other
syncopations. And then I started getting into compound rhythms and
the poor guy, with his cronies, just left.
It was glorious.
