I believe so. But 6/8 is easy.

Try 9/8.

Could think of it like 3/4 but every & is a beat.

Unless it has a 6 above it it's just sixteenth notes.
1&2&3&.

Lol. You may hate 6/8

But trust me...it is absolutely NOTHING compared to 15/16...

And yes it exists...
As does 28/32.
Welcome to the world of REAL music. xD

Could be worse, you know. My freshman year in high school, a large portion of our show was in 6/8 and we marched it all in 4.

Oh man, that's how one of our shows were, and it was reeeally confusing.

Ahh, I remember doing 6/8 time. Now, I'm stuck in a piece that flips from 5/8 to 7/8 every other measure. *slams head repeatedly against a brick*
