Great question, dad2mak!

*for interesting reading, here are some earlier responses to the discussion (both about fave breaks as well as intros)

misty, no i have failed as a teacher, lol... musically speaking, a break and a pause are not interchangeable terms
i think of Gord's 'pause' before the chorus in Daylight Katy as an fermata (when he plays it live anyhow)
a fermata is that symbol that looks like an upsidedown U with a dot in the middle
the definiton is 'To hold a tone or rest held beyond the written value at the discretion of the performer'
ok, now back to our irregularly sheduleded programming....
hey, great one, bjm
