Heehee. My orchestra conductors actually sympathize with us violas, which is rather nice.

Thanks for all the compliments, Fiona!

And Percussionman, nothing wrong with you not getting the comics. I showed some other people and they were confused. I guess it's just a certain kind of humor. But if you didn't start at the beginning of the storyline, doing that might clear some things up.

A BASS?!

Wow.

I play bass.

Electric, though.

More portable than a standup.

Less expensive, too.

And you can make it make funny noises.

And paint funny designs on it with nail polish.

Its name is Frog.

*dies* A BASS?
And I thought the person who called my viola a CELLO was off the mark! Sheesh!

stand ups can make funny and quickly annoying noises too. like making the siren noise by playing under the bridge.

My bass has 3 year old grapes/semi raisins in it does yours?

Um...yuck.
How did you manage that one?

*agrees with Mitya* Did you drop them through the f-holes?

And Frog's a solidbody guitar, so it'd be kinda difficult to put grapes in it...it came with note names scratched in between the frets, though. ^.^

My uncle's a jazz bassist. He's really good. And I'm not just saying this because I'm biased.

Really bad bass joke that came from him:

'I was in an elevator with my bass in its case, and I wasn't lugging around my amp or music stand. After a bit, a guy and his date come onto the elevator. I was just minding my own business when I hear the guy whisper to his girlfriend:

"Ever seen a guy with a date so ugly he keeps her in a bag?"'

Bad music jokes are funny for some reason.

Heehee. I like viola jokes...the violinists just don't understand our superior minds. ^.^
