So they invent a 'mind reading probe'...
They zap a local band.....
Lead singer is thinking..'I'm great,I could have any woman in this audience'
The guitarist is thinking..'I'm the real star of this band, That blonde by the bar is really hot!'
The drummer is thinking..'Where's the nearest food outlet when we're finished here?'
The bass player..'E,234,A,234'.....

How does a singer change a light bulb..he holds it and expects the world to revolve around him
How do you confuse a guitarist..give him a sheet of music
How do you stop a drummer doing constant fills..give him pizza
Hear about the bass player who goes into shop asking to purchase a 5 string bass, after much conversation with the assistant on his side( he explains everything about neck width, string spacing, active electronics the assistant fianlly gets a word in edgeways and informs him that he is in a furniture shop..oops

How’s that old cliché’ go …”a bass player is just a frustrated guitar player” …or is it….” a guitar player is a bass player with no rhythm”....?

I think it must be the latter, Olie. Although guitars do frustrate me no end.

How to mess with a bass player, detune one of his strings but don't tell him which one.

What's the difference between a drummer and a large pizza?



A large pizza can feed a family of four. *rim shot*

A man gives his son an electric bass for his 15th birthday, along with a coupon for four bass lessons. When the son returns from his first lesson, the father asks, "So, what did you learn?"
"Well, I learned the first five notes on the E string." Next week, after the second lesson, the father again asks about the progress, and the son replies, "This time I learned the first five notes on the A string." One week later, the son comes home far later than expected, smelling of cigarettes and beer. So the father asks: "Hey, what happened in today's lesson?" "Dad, I'm sorry I couldn't make it to my lesson; I had a gig!"

A man is shipwrecked, but finds his way to a small but, fortunately, inhabited island. The people had seen the ship go down, and were waiting on the beach to celebrate any survivors - a bonfire, a feast, and much constant drumming. While this is all most welcome at first, the drumming begins to wear thin after dinner, and he asks the nearest person "When does the drumming stop?" The reply comes "Oh, very bad when drumming stops!" Several hours later, as he develops a killer headache from the pounding, he again asks "When does the drumming stop?" and receives the same answer. About midnight, as he's getting ready to go to sleep, he asks again, and again is told "Very bad when drumming stops!" It continues all night, precluding sleep, and by morning he's so frazzled he grabs the first person he sees and, shaking them, yells "WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE DRUMMING STOPS?!?!?!"
"Bass solo."

How do you tell if the stage is level?
When the drummer drools out of both sides of his mouth at the same time.

No, never saw that vid - don't recall where I got it; most likely from a site of drummer jokes I sought out right after buying the youngest kid his drum set.

How can you tell that the singer is at the door?

He can't find the key and can't figure out when to come in.

How does a bass player screw in a lightbulb?

He doesn't! The piano player does it with his left hand.

Saint Peter is standing at the Pearly Gates as people enter Heaven. He asks everyone 2 questions to determine if they may enter;

A lady walks up;

St Peter: Excuse me ma’am, how much money a year did you make while on earth?
Lady: 42 thousand a year.
St Peter: What did you do for a living?
Lady: I was a teacher in grade school.
St Peter: Oh that’s wonderful, molding young minds come on in.

A man walks up;

St Peter: Excuse me sir, how much money did you make a year while on earth?
Man: 260 thousand a year.
St Peter: WOW, what did you do for a living?
Man: I was a jewel thief.
St Peter: Oh that’s terrible stealing from others, I’m afraid I can’t let you in.

Second man walks up;
St Peter: Excuse me sir, how much money did you make a year while on earth?
Man: 6 thousand a year
St Peter: Oh yea, what instrument did you play?
