Young Johnny decides he wants to learn bass, and after some pleading talks his mom into it. So they go to the local music store to buy him a bass rig and sign him up for bass lessons with Bob the bass teacher.

First lesson: Bob, "Johnny, you see that thickest string on the top? That's the E string. Hit it! .....Good. Now go home and practice that and I'll see you next week."

One week later... second lesson: Bob, "Hi Johnny, how did your practice go?" Johnny, "Fine." Bob, "Great! Now you see that second biggest string right below the E string? That's the A string. Hit it! ... Good. Now go home and practice that and I'll see you next week."

Next week Bob waits for Johnny, and he doesn't show. Finally he calls and Johnny's mom answers, "Oh, I'm so sorry, I should have called you. Johnny joined a band and is out on tour."

Okay here we go:

2 guys were walking down the street. One was a musician, the other didn't have any money either!

Q: What did the drummer get on his IQ test?
A: Drool!

Q: How do you know when a singer as at the door?
A: He can't find the key & doesn't know when to come in!

Q: How do you get a guitarist to turn down?
A: Put sheet music in front of him!

Q: What's the difference between a dead 'possum & a a dead trombonist lying in the road?
A: The 'possum was probably on his way to a gig!

Q: Why are conductor's hearts so coveted for transplants?
A: Because they're barely used!

Q: What do you call a thousand accordions at the bottom of the sea?
A: A good start!

Q: What's the difference between a jazz guitarist & a rock guitarist?
A: The jazz guitarist plays thousands of chords for three people, while the rock guitarist plays three chords for thousands of people!

and lastly:

The guitarist comes back from break to find the bass player beating the tar out of a kid. He rushes over to separate the two and, grabbing the bassist by the collar, yells "what in the world are you doing! What's going on here!". The bassist replies "I was just sitting here, minding my own business when this kid came over and detuned one of the strings on my bass!" The guitarist pauses for a moment, a little confused, and states, "well, that's no reason to start hitting him", to which the bassist responds "sure it is...he won't tell me which one!"

Ill be here all week...try the veal!

Hey! I resemble that!

"Pay or I'll play..."
