The Duke of York tonight where I went to my usual Monday session had a real coal fire in a grate (temp outside was down to -2 or thereabouts). I can't understand why we had no bodhráns ...

"Well, your Honour, what would you do if someone threw a pint over you when you were half-way through The Maid Behind The Bar"

Heard this on CBC Radio the other day:
Whats the difference between an Australian Boomerang and an Irish Boomerang ?
The irish Boomerang only sings about coming back!
We can make this a thread for jokes about the music if you like. ??
I need some good ones for those moments on stage when someone has to tune.

The difference between a seamstress and a viola player is allegedly that the seamstress tucks up the frills.

Re: Leaving of Australia
As opposed to Liverpool (and Old Durham Town - if you can whistle), where everyone sings about leaving it.
My favorite of the year is the difference between a church organist and a baby - one sucks his fingers.
