On the subject of humor for/about musicians, the link is to a series of
parodies (?) written by Steve Hashimoto, a Chicago bass player who is
also a contractr and has a literary bent. They are quite funny,
esp. if you're a jobbing musician or have ever had to assemble a band
for a gig. It's kinda long, but I think you'll enjoy.

"When a musician believes that music is a commodity, music dies in them." - Robert Fripp
Upon first entering the jungle village, an anthropologist pays his respect to the tribal witchdoctor. He asks the witch doctor about the constant drumming he heard while nearing the village. The witchdoctor replied ominously that "there is no problem as long as the drumming does not stop."
For the rest of his yearlong stay in the village, the drumming continued day and night. On his final day in the village, the anthropologist visits the witchdoctor to say goodbye. Just as he is about to leave the drumming suddenly stops. A look of horror comes over the witchdoctor's face. "WHAT IS IT! WHAT DOES IT MEAN!" the terrified anthropologist demands. Replies the witchdoctor:
"OH NO. BASS SOLO."
at a private party we were both (obviously) attending. He laughed like
crazy when he got to the punch line (so did the rest of us, obviously).
Milt was a great guy, and a great story teller. And a great soloist too,
I might mention.

I like that line, thanks for the link.
By the way I think it's insidious (i.e. evil) how the google ads next to your post are automatically targeted at jobbing musicians (or those looking for musicians). We should all post about fried chicken and see how appropriate the google ads become for an audio forum.

MUSICIANS !
...regards...tr
A drummer, tired of being ridiculed by his peers, decides to learn how to play some ‘real’ musical instruments. He walks into a music store and says to the salesman, “I’ll take that red trumpet and that accordion.” The salesman looks at him a bit funny and replies, “Okay, you can have the fire extinguisher but the radiator has to stay.”
the drummer takes the dishes out of the sink before he has a leak
Sorry - I played in a rock band
He drools equally out of both sides of his mouth!

The band started late, because the drummer locked himself in the car and it took 45 minutes to free him.
It seems as if that guy DOES have a lot of time on his hands though! :-)
