Did you hear about the drummer who locked his keys in his car?

It took two hours to get the bass player out.


How many guitarists does it take to play "Pride and Joy?"

Apparently, every single one of them.

It's when you throw the accordian in the dumpster and it lands on the banjo.

a drummer one day decides to play a real instrument so he goes to a music store and picks out two instruments to learn, upon going to the counter to pay, the cashier informed him: "i'm sorry. you can keep the fire extinguisher but the radiator has to stay"

How do you know when a harmonica player is at your door?

He doesn't have the key, but he comes in whenever he wants.

None, the keyboard player can do it with his left hand.

Two, one to do it, and the other to say how Jaco could have done it better.
