The lighter side of music.

A little humour for those who know a bit of music theory C, E-flat and G go into a bar. The bartender says, "I'm sorry, but we don't serve minors." So E-flat leaves, and C and G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished, and G is out flat. F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. D comes in and heads for the bathroom saying, "Excuse me. I'll just be a second." Then A comes in, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor. Then the bartender notices B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and says, "Get out! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight." E-Flat comes back the next night in a three-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender says, "You're looking sharp tonight. Come on in, this could be a major development." Sure enough, E-flat soon takes off his suit and everything else, and is au natural. Eventually, C sobers up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. C is brought to trial, 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, C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental. The judge rules that all contrary motions are bassless.

Guess everyone's a bit dopey today...

@ Rene : Really good. You could probably sing that to the tune of "Axis bold as love"... ?

In the end, they should have thrown the bartender off the clef and made it look like an accident-al ?

I definitely would if I wasn't so allergic to having guitars broken over my head. ?

Damn Allergies

Viccy wrote Damn Allergies

My hand can't touch a guitar string
My fingers just burn and ache
My head intercedes with my bodily needs
And my body won't give it a break

My heart can stand a disaster
My heart can take a disgrace
But my heart is allergic
To the women I love
And it's changing the shape of my face

Allergies ... allergies
Something's living on my skin
Doctor please ... Doctor please
Open up it's me again ...

So I ask myself this question
It's a question I often repeat
Where do allergies go
When it's after a show
And they want to get something to eat?

Maladies ... melodies
Allergies to dust and grain
Maladies ... remedies
Still these allergies remain ...

- Paul Simon (off Hearts & Bones [1983])
