Implying that an existing section's worth, musically or visually, is any less important is a very unrational perspective. However, it was acknowledged that as a result of the pit's ability to duplicate a cymbal line's musical contribution, their visual presence is not a necessity. _________________________ DCI, DCA, WGI, done it all in some form.

jacoismyhero Registered: 11/28/05 Loc: Pittsburgh, PA	Originally Posted By: Nex I don't think Jaco was saying the technique itself was less important, but rather that wasting time trying to teach a technique that will ultimately come across as inadequate teaching for various reasons in that situation makes the cymbal section less important than the other three battery sections. Precisely. Thanks, John. I do love cymbal lines, but I "misspoke" (heh) in my previous post. It wasn't so much the teaching of the technique I was referring to, but rather the existence of the section. Sorry for the misunderstanding. _________________________ Hi. I'm Kyle.
