All these jokes are great, but this is the best. Having sat through however many hours of Koyanisquatsi (hey, I was trying to impress a girl with my intellectualism... didn't realise she was just as bored as I was) this is like the payoff that never was! :lol:

Harry Shearer and the late, great David L. Lander, then part of '70s L.A. radio comedy troupe The Credibility Gap, put a rock era spin on Abbott & Costello's classic Who's On First? comedy routine.

I'm glad all these jokes are on record here, because I can never remember jokes.

(I'm not a musician...and, this isn't really a joke)
I've always wanted CASIO to bring the keyboard into the 21st Century:
MARIMBA * LATIN * REGGAE * ROCK * CALYPSO * JAZZ * PORN * POLKA * BLUEGRASS etc.

Anybody remember The Jim Ladd All-Girl Harmonica Band on 94.7FM KMET-LA?

Auditions daily!

Thanks, for the humor

This is more ambitious concept than "joke," but it's a terrific one. Meet Señor Coconut Y Su Conjunto.

I think I heard this from John McEuen of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band:

A traveling musician left his banjo in the car and forgot to lock it. When he came back there were 2 banjos.

Glad you enjoyed. Given the format, it may be the easiest to remember, too! Once-upon-a-time, I spent an afternoon with Mr. Glass under very awkward circumstances (my employer putting the ultra bollix on a promo appearance), and he couldn't have been kinder or more good-humored. Providing el gordo portions of premium guacamole, salsa and chips and a wide range of beverages for the doomed event probably didn't hurt; they essentially became a mini-brunch for five. Minimalist, if you will. And no, I don't recall Mr. Glass ever repeating a story!

How do you know the stage is level?

The drummer is drooling out of both sides of his mouth.
