Default Very clever musical puns

C, an E-flat, and G go into a bar. The bartender says: "Sorry, but we
don't serve minors." So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have
an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is
diminished: the G is out flat.


An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp
enough. A D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom
saying, "Excuse me, I'll just be a second."


An A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that this
relative of C is not a minor. Then the bartender notices a B-flat
hiding at the end of the bar and exclaims: "Get out now! You're the
seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight." The E-flat, not easily
deflated, comes back to the bar the next night in a 3-piece suit with
nicely shined shoes.


The bartender (who used to have a nice corporate job until his company
downsized) says: "You're looking sharp tonight, come on in! This
could be a major development." This proves to be the case, as the E-
flat takes off the suit and stands there au natural. Eventually, the C
sobers up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. The C is
brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the diminution
of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda at an
upscale correctional facility.


On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even
accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless. The
bartender decides, however, that since he's only had tenor so
patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom, and everything has become
alto much treble, he needs a rest and closes the bar.

I C that you have raised the bar in regards to musical jokes. Besides the minor groans, that was flat out funny.

As a prelude to posting these types of stories, you might want to check with your staff. They might accidentally find out that only about an eighth of it is true. The key is to carefully measure the facts.

PS: I hope you don't take this as a slur.

oh, no no no... The "Key" is to listen to the "tone" in which it is performed.

Cuz... sometimes you'll find that it is just a variation on a theme.

Music is like chopin wood. You are always looking for a chord or two. :tongue:

What do music, an office and a shepperd have in common? They all need a staff.

What is a composers favorit sport? Adagio ball

Groan...........

A couple of enterprising bass players, unwilling to sit through a long, bass-less stretch of Beethoven's Ninth, sneaked off stage and into the bar next door. Beer flowed; time passed. "Look at the time! We have to get back!" said one. "Relax," said his partner, "I tied the last few pages of the conductor's score together with string. It will take him a few minutes to untangle it." They staggered back into the hall and took their places. About this time, a member of the audience noted that the conductor was breaking a sweat. "Of course," replied her companion, "It's the bottom of the Ninth, the score's tied, and the bassists are loaded!"
