Metronome madness

György Ligeti - Poème Symphonique For 100 Metronomes
&feature=related

You can play at whatever time you like with 100 metronomes.
I like how the camera pans around quickly, like one of them will run off or do soemthing different.
And then some of those metronomes seem really happy and excited at the fast tempos.  The slow ones seemed kind of... slow. 
These are analog metronomes.... sad ending.



I think it's kind of creepy.

They'll triple your technique and provide slowly ending fun.

Robert, would you say that you and I are friends?

If yes, good friends?

If no, why? Is it something I have said/done/ate?

PS: How is your snail farm?

PPS: Write back!

Umm..... We're like this. :)   (Bob holds up two fingers.)

Snail farm?   Uh oh....   I hope the humidity level has been ok all this time.   And I hope those bags of salt didn't burst open eventually...

PPS:  I am writing back now.
