I have a Beautiful song that was written in 16 49 , but I have re arranged it to 4 4 to make it easier to play

I know a dysrhythmic accordian player who makes any tune sound like it's in 16/49 time ....

Whilst I'm here, Playford published the first edition of the Dancing Master in 1651, not 1649. Prescis ... Preciss ... Acurracy is important in these things you know.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.

The time is still 1649 when Mr Playford published his English Dancing Master. We don't need any modern new-fangled time - we want Folk time.

MudCat time is the time where Max lives , with Mudcat probably in his basement , currently Eastern Standard Time , which as Bonnie said is Five hours after GMT , but watch the Autumn/Spring change , as it can be a week different !

If you use Firefox there's a nifty little add-on you can download:

The UK and Ireland are 5 hours later, so just add 5. They should change the standard from GMT to MMT.

I think that Mudcat time is Mudcat time - you can't set it.

It's like USSR railway time, which was (is?) Moscow time, even in the east where the local time may be 7 hours different.

Hi -
I'm guessing you mean to set the colck on a computer. If that's the case, go to "Help" and search for Time Zone. Instructions and a link will come right up, and it will be obvious how to change it.

How does one set the time zone (eg to UK)
