The last time I took my viola out of its case I found the C string had gone.
All right then there now follows a viola joke, followed by a limerick: Q: How do you keep your violin from being stolen. A: Put it in a viola case Up in Heaven, George H. and J. C. Meet at least once a week, for high tea. In December, the din Of "Messiahs" wears thin, So they watch game shows on the TV. |

Why was the piano invented?
So the musician would have a place to put his beer. --- How do you tell if a tenor is dead? The wine bottle is still full and the comics haven't been touched. --- How many basses does it take to change a lightbulb? None. They're so macho they prefer to walk in the dark and bang their shins. --- Minimum safe distances between street musicians and the public: Violinist: 25 feet Bad Violinist: 50 feet Tone Deaf Guitar Player who knows 3 chords: 75 feet 15 year-old Electric Guitar Player with Nirvana fixation: 100 feet Accordionist: 60 miles --- |

'What's the difference between a bull and an orchestra?'
'A bull has the horns at the front and the a$$h*le at the back.' Actually everytime I put a violin under my chin it's a joke... |
