Subject: fiddle jokes From: zander (inactive) Date: 10 Dec 00 - 12:31 PM Click for the 'PermaThread™: List of all joke threads'On a sunday I play in a folk session in my local pub, today it devolved into a musician joke session, our resident fiddle player Alex was offended at the lack of fiddle jokes [ it was mainly banjo and accordian jokes ] so I am looking for fiddle jokes to appease our brilliant but tempramental Alex. I know you will not let me down. Cheers, Dave |
Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: paddymac Date: 10 Dec 00 - 12:49 PM Ah, but banjoes and accordians just make such easy targets for jokesters of all sorts. I can't remember ever hearing a joke which was truly unique to fiddles or fiddlers. There surely must be some. |

Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: Banjer Date: 10 Dec 00 - 05:08 PM I don't play a fiddle, but have laughed at many a joke about banjos, which I do play. So in the spirit of turnabout: Q.

Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: Marion Date: 10 Dec 00 - 09:30 PM Not exactly a fiddle joke, but here it is: Q: Why are violas bigger than violins? A: Actually they're the same size, it just looks that way because the violinists' heads are bigger. |
Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: ddw Date: 10 Dec 00 - 09:52 PM You're right, Marion — it's probably not really a joke..... *BG* david |

Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: GUEST,Les B Date: 11 Dec 00 - 02:07 PM Speaking of dogs - what't the difference between a fiddler and a dog ?? - A dog knows when to stop scratching ! What's it called when a fiddler marries a banjo player ? Upward mobility ! |
Subject: RE: Help: fiddle jokes From: Bernard Date: 11 Dec 00 - 02:25 PM Is that Les B(arker)? The sense of fun is about right, and the dog fetish fits!! If it is, I've got some incriminating photos from the Railway... PM me if you'd like them... and if you're not Mrs. Akroyd's servant after all, ooops! Not forgetting the Roman Emperor Nero, who roamed whilst his fiddle burned... |
