His mom replies, "No Johnny. That's because your 26 years old."
I think we have a winner. Still laughing.

A lot of my favorites have been posted already - I just read through the ENTIRE thread!

You know how long it takes to tune a banjo?

No one does, it hasn't happened yet...

Do you know why Dead Heads dance with their hands and fingers waving in front of their faces?

To keep the music from getting in their eyes...

How many Grateful Dead Heads does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Only one... but it takes 10,000 to follow the burned-out bulb around the country...

(Apparently, Garcia nearly peed his pants laughing at this one...)

I think I may have posted this one before, but it's worth a second run.

Q. What's the difference between a dog lying dead in the road and a banjo player lying dead in the road?

A. There are skidmarks in front of the dog.

Johnny gets a bass for Christmas and heads off to his first lesson. He returns all smiles.

Johnny's Dad: How were lessons?

Johnny: Great, I learned the notes on the E and A string up to the fifth fret!

Next week, Johnny is seen smiling, leaving the house with his bass.

Johnny's dad: Off to your lesson?

Johnny: Nope, got a gig!


A jazz musician dies and goes to heaven. He's amazed that right on heaven's main street, there is a crowded jazz club.

Stepping inside, the bartender notices him as a newcomer, and quickly points out all of the famous names sitting around, waiting for the set to start.

"See," he says, pointing--"There's Miles talking to Paul Desmond, and over there is Duke, and Benny Goodman. Stick around tonight, Ray Brown's bringing Oscar and Barney Kessel with him.

"Wow," says the musician, wide-eyed. "Say...who's that cat with the drumsticks? I don't recognize him."

"Oh," says the bartender, rolling his eyes. "That's God, he thinks he's Buddy Rich."

After a long layoff, I thought I might bump up this one and bring it back. Considering the kind of week we're having, it's a good time to laugh.
