| Alright:
"A kid asks his dad for a bass for Christmas (Or birthday but, hey, 'tis the season). The dad says he'll only get one if his son promises that he will take private lessons. The son agrees.
Son Christmas comes around, and, sure enough, there's a bass under the tree. So the kid gets signed up for weekly lessons with a local tutor. For the 1st lesson, he learn E, F, F#, G, and G# on the E string. The next lesson, he learns A, Bb, B, C, and C# on the A-string. The 3rd week, he learns D, Eb, E, F, and F# on the D. The 4th week, he learns G, Ab, A, Bb, and B on the G-string.
So on the 5th week, the tutor calls the father to say that the young man never attended his lesson. So the child comes home that night at 10 PM smelling like smoke. The father accosts the truant. He responds 'Geez Dad, I had a gig tonight.'"
