I know lots of musician jokes, not just banjo player jokes. The one someone
posted about the bluegrass stage being level is one I know as:
How do you know the drum riser is level?
The drummer drools out of both sides of his mouth.
I tell people I'm not a musician myself, I'm a guitar player. I can play well
enough to accompany my singing & sing just well enough to disguise some of the
deficiencies in my guitar playing.
How do you get a guitar player to shut up?
Ask him to play from sheet music.
I had a friend who played banjo. Came to our Tuesday night sessions at the
coffee house. He said he'd got to play with Pete Seeger back in his college days.
He passed away in April. Not Covid19. He had a real bad stroke back in February
but the Covid19 came along and we never got to visit him or go to his funeral.
