Music theory joke

Hey all, I'm new here. I've sort of lurked in and out for the past couple of years, but I feel it's time I actually post something. Here's a joke for the musician in all of us. (If you're not a musician, this will make no sense to you.)

Quote:

A C, an E-flat, and a 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 and 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 everything else, 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 contrary motions 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 think this ought to belong here:

Anyway, I only understand a little bit of music theory, so that got beyond me. It is cool though.

I understood everything. Best crafted music joke I've seen so far.

It gets points for creativity, but the requirements to fully understand it mean you have to be a music nerd, so it makes me :(.

It reveals my geekiness.

I understood it fully and it made me groan. Partly that it was a lame music joke and partly because I completely understood it. Actually, this sounds like something that my old theory teacher would read in class and then the 6 of us would discuss it because we hardly ever did any real work.

Its clever, but I think they drag it along too much.

Only funny parts: An Eb going sharp is a major development, and the bartender wasn't convinced that A wasn't a minor relative of C.

Other than that, it was all groan-worthy. Especially the parts after "C sobers up"

All 'essay-type' music jokes are too drawn out. And they bug me because I understand them -- I mean, it's like 'getting' jokes about math. :(

Haha, we don't serve minors.

I don't know if I should feel glad or sad that I got it.

That reminds me of when my guitar teacher would ask the class if anyone knew how to finger A minor.

cool joke, kinda had to think about some parts since the intention was to have more than one meaning to it.

can this be written down on a score and be played?

Hehe! That reminds me of the violin joke about tightening your "G string". :tpg:

The Eb could be major if he had just 3 flats from his key signature rather than 6. Furthermore, if he was looking sharp he would actually become D# minor instead which would make him enharmonic :/

wow what a brilliant joke

Haha, I dunno if it's more pathetic that I get this, but whatever.....

Band gets so much more of the sexual music jokes anyway, with the fingering and the tounging, and the blowing.......go nuts.

Yeah, strings just have the ol' G-string and vibrato jokes :(.

Heh, I thought it was quite amusing. Long though

I understood parts of it, but not enough to get the whole joke. I play a bit of the piano and when I read parts like, "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..." that kinda made me chuckle.

This saxy joke gave me a tromboner.

Ok I'll leave now.

hahaha, That's actually funnier than the joke the thread was made for.
