Collective nouns

Sign in to disble this ad
Firstly apologies as I am doing this on the iPhone app so typing may suck

Anyway the thread.
At the jam might last night we had 7 bassists and were discussing what the collective nouns for different musicians should be. My favourites were

A crèche of drummers
A rumble of bassists
A (spinal) tap of bassists

Post away your own suggestions, bet there are som good ones

A flatulence of trombonists
A tantrum of singers
A felony of managers
A wheedle of guitarists
A stumble of drummers
A plod of bassists
A deafness of engineers
An envy of trumpeters
A screech of violinists
An inconvenience of double bassists
A solitude of bassoonists
An oblivion of accordionists
