Ok, I've had a crazy day and from what I've read on the forum the last couple days it's sounds like we could all use something to take our minds off things, so what's your funniest or weirdest music story. It can be dark humor.
I, like several other members of the forum, am follicly challenged. As a youth, I had long flowing hair. As a college student I had a retreating hairline. It turned into a route. So one day I decided enough was enough. (The day was actually the day I was sleeping outside on a nice summer day and an earwig decided to follow me back inside). I shaved off what was left. I showed up at my next band practice and our weird guitar player seemed oddly energized. The following practice his head was shaved too. It was a practice or two after that that he let me in on a secret. He was a neo-Nazi. Oh boy! What fun! Let me say that I was raised by a mother who was there in the crowd when Martin Luther King delivered his 'I Have A Dream' speech. I have pretty much the same values. How is this funny? Well, it's not funny. We promptly kicked him out of the band.
We were actually scared off him. We knew he had some mental health issues. We made sure everyone was there the day we kicked him out so that he couldn't blame any one of us for his being kicked out of the band. He'd actually been kicked out of so many bands he took it pretty well. He even tried to be friendly when we bumped into him, although it was all in his own weird passive aggressive way. He particularly liked telling us all the fun new equipment he had. Thousands and thousands of dollars of new great equipment. Finally, one day he spotted us in a car in a parking lot outside the store where he worked. He came over and started telling us all about the great new recording setup he had, the new guitars. The fact that he'd cornered more than one of us at a time meant he could gloat in stereo!
A couple of us were still pretty scared of him, but our other guitar player had had enough. So when crazy boy finished talking about his $5000 rack system, his giant digital recording set-up, his new Flying V guitar, he interrupted him. "All that gear and you still can't find a band to play with? What's up with that."
We pulled out of the parking lot and crazy boy never talked to us again.

Ok, funny might not be the right word for that one, but I've just had one of those days where anything where someone gets some sort of cosmic justice makes me smile.

listening to peter wolf and magic dick playing after a concert in detroit. the played at the olympia. back in the early 70's. there was a big sign out front close to the roof. it looked like the old movie house signs. these two were up there having a ball and about 100 of us standing below watching. it was better than their show and if you have seen j geils you now have an idea as to how great the jam was.

Well this isn't music related, it's just a joke I heard on the radio on the way back from work last night that made me laugh.
A man walks into a doctor and said "Doctor there's a lettuce leaf sticking out of my arse"
"It's just the tip of the iceberg" replied the doctor.
I do like an arse joke. There's a few people on this forum could do with pulling their heads out of their own arses.There is actually more to life than ranting on about harmonicas.

Oisin- Lol. I'll have to share that with my doctor. I used to bring a doctor joke to each visit but I ran out.
Oh, there's my thermometer. Now where did I stick my pen?

Nasty- The real question is how much does a doctor charge for a visit like that.
