So he walks up to the first person at the bar and asks, what's your IQ? The guy at the bar replies very confidently, its 150. He then asks him, do you think that we will ever come up with a unified theory which can accommodate both relativity and quantum mechanics?
Well, they get into a deep discussion about theoretical physics and have a really greet conversation about the universe, philosophy and all matter of related subjects. After a while the guy at the bar says: Nice talking to you but I need to get home.

So, our friend walks up to the next guy at the bar and asks him, what's your IQ? The guy at the bar replies in a relaxed manner, its 140.
He then asks him, what do you think about the role of neo-liberal economics with regard the the current wave of populism which seems to be spreading in the Western world?
So they get into a deep discussion of modern geo-politics and the implications for the future and after a whole the guy at the bar says, hey it's been great talking to you but I have to run.

He then asks the next guy at the bar, whats your IQ, to which the guy replies around 100. "So who do you think will win the NBA this year" he asks him? So they get into a discussion about basketball, baseball and all variety of sports after which the guy at the bar has to leave.

So our friend walks up the last person at the bar sitting by himself and asks him, what's your IQ? The guy at the bar replies in a mumbling voice without making eye contact, I dunno, maybe 60 maybe 70, to which our friend then asks: so what kind of strings do you use?
I didn't understand this one... I'll get me guitar...

What's the difference between a saxophone and a chainsaw? Vibrato.

Why is it that sound guys, when performing mic checks, can count no higher than three? This is not a joke, I really want to know!

We need a "like" button on this forum. There are a few I hadn't heard before and a few good ones that still bring a smile to my face.

What's the definition of a professional guitarist? He loads $5,000.00 worth of equipment into a $500.00 car and drives 50 miles to play a $50.00 gig.

Why do bagpipers wallk around when they play?
To get away from all the freaking noise!


When Stevie Ray Vaughn's helicopter went down, the world lost a gifted artist. But on the other side of that life-and-death instant, Stevie Ray woke up and found himself on a huge stage set up for literally dozens of musicians. His trusty Strat was on a stand next to his favorite amp. Poor Stevie was confused... But even more so when Jimi Hendrix came out of the wings and plugged his Strat into his Marshall stack. Stevie walks up to Hendrix and says, "Jimi, is that really you?"

Jimi replies in the affirmative, and says, "Man, we've been watching you from this side. You done good." About that time, nearly every musician and singer who was dead to that point started walking out on stage, grabbing their instruments, and tuning up. Pigpen, Janis, John Lennon, Jim Morrison, and many more began preparing for what was shaping up to be a huge concert.

Stevie Ray says, "I must have died and gone to rock and roll Heaven!"

Jimi replied, "Don't be so quick to judge..."

At that moment, Karen Carpenter climbs the drum riser, starts tapping out a rhythm on her drumsticks, and says, "Alright, boys -- 'Close To You!' One... Two...."

That one reminds me of this one:

Q: What's the difference between Los Angeles and a bowl of yogurt?
A: The yogurt has a living culture.
