Default Bepe Gambetta's banjo joke

Saw BG at a house concert last night, what a treat. Songs in four languages, flatpicker extraordinaire and he's a real entertainer to boot.

He shared a banjo joke I'd not heard ... How are a grenade and a banjo different?

they're not, once you hear them it's too late.

Beppe is a very funny fellow! He also shared this one recently:

"What do a banjo player and a murder have in common?
Everyone is relieved when the case is closed."

Did you hear about the bluegrass band that locked their keys in the car?

It took them 45 minutes to get the banjo player out.

Excellent banjo humor! I have to remember those two...

One of my favorites:

The difference between a chain saw and a banjo?











Well, one has a dynamic range and an off/on switch...

The version I had heard was as follows:

Q: What do a banjo and a hand grenade have in common?

A: They're both great for clearing out a room.
