from a web site with some musician jokes...
Q: What do you get when you drop a piano down a mine shaft?
A: A flat miner
Q: You can trash an accordian or bagpipes. Which do you choose?
A: The accordian ... business before pleasure.
Q: What's the difference between a folk singer and a bond?
A: Eventually the bond will mature, and make money.
Q: What's the difference between a dulcimer, and an onion?
A: Nobody cries when you slice up a dulcimer.

A: The knocking speeds up and he's not sure quite when to come in.
Q: What do you throw to a drowning guitar player?
A: His amp.
Q: There's a knock at the door, how do you know it's a singer?
A: They can't find the key, and don't know when to come in.
Q: How many altos does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Don't be silly, they can't get that high.
Q: What's the difference between a puppy, and a folksinger?

I had a friend who told me you could tune a piano, but you can't tune a fish.
I said you could too, after you fiddled with its scales.
Pixie: I can play the piano by ear.
Dwarf: That's nothing. I can fiddle with my whiskers.
Some of us in our high school symphony orchestra had a laugh when our director
would tell the violinists to fix their G-string.

REO Speedwagon had an album out around 1977-78 entitled "You Can Tune A Piano,
But You Can't Tuna Fish." Anybody remember that one?

The Three Stooges have a skit where they are a string trio.
They are rehearsing the Paginini. Moe of course is the leader
and he cues them to start the peice and it is all wrong.
He stops them and of course starts to berate them, asks if
they are sure they are playing the Paginini. They start
again and it's horrible, like they're not even playing
the same peice. And by now Moe is poking eyes and slapping
and conking heads together.
"Are you *sure* you're playing the Paginini?" he asks.
"It says right here, *Pag-i-ni-ni*." Curly holds up his sheet.
Moe grabs it out of his hand. "That's *page nine*, numbskull."

Based on someone just singing the theme of the punchline, I just came up with
this:
The members of the C major scale were trying to come up with names for each
note in the scale. Before any other note could speak, E shouted out:
"I've got to be Mi..." :-)
