banjo players drive me crazy

How can you tell if there's a banjo player at your door?
They can't find the key, the knocking speeds up, and they don't know when to come in.

That's funny.

BTW (at risk of repeating myself):

Q: What do you call someone with no talent who hangs out with musicians?



A: A drummer.





Listening to the Mooney Suzuki, "Gool Ol' Alcohol." Can't find it in acceptable form on youtube, unfortunately...

Nashville Teens do one of the best hardest rocking R&R songs of all time

Heh, that's two muso jokes rolled into one!

How do you know there's a drummer at your door?
The knocking speeds up then it slows down.

How do you know when there's a singer at your door?
He can't find the key and he doesn't know when to come in.

How many drummers does it take to change a light bulb?
None, they've got machines that do that these days.

How many bass players does it take to change a light bulb?
Who cares?

Did you here about the drummer who locked his keys in the van?
It took him an hour to get the bass player out.

Oh yeah. Topic.

Blue Moods album by Miles Davis - first time I've ever heard it. Smooth.

What's the difference between a violin and a tenor sax?

The violin doesn't hurt your feet when you jump on it.

Been listening to Heartless Bastards and Hopewell out on the patio. Goes well with the big swaying trees and the fireflies...

hingehead reminded me of this album and this song:

never heard it before aidan. Gosh he's talented, especially when you think of his journey from "Look Sharp" where we thought he was a punk rocker.

Another example of the limeys appreciating American roots music. John D Loudermilk wrote and recorded this in the early 60's.Here's his own version.
