Not sure if this has been posted here, but there was this Canadian comedy show in the 90's called Kids in the Hall that used to frequently make band jokes. This one's great. YouTube - ‪Kids in the Hall - Bass Player‬‏ |

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the fun reminder! |

In this case, yes.

I think TB members just might be able to play the bass solo if we practice it for hours.

Don't think I have sour grapes because I was offended by the bass jokes. (I mean, I am in the bass humor section after all) but that was just not funny. I don't get the appeal. |

I don't worry about it. I'm used to it because most of my favorite movies I like are routinely trashed by critics. And conversely, most of the movies which critics give rave reviews are normally uninteresting or disappointing to me.
