What's the difference between a trampoline and bagpipes?

Q) What's the difference between a trampoline and bagpipes?

A) You take off your shoes when you jump on a trampoline.


Q) What do you call someone who knows how to play the bagpipes, but doesn't?

A) A gentleman.


(I should be careful, because I have heard these jokes applied to accordion as well)

Re: What's the difference between a trampoline and bagpipes?

A friend recently asked me if I knew what perfect pitch was. He said it's when you throw the accordion out the window and it lands in the dumpster.

Re: Re: What's the difference between a trampoline and bagpipes?

an even better pitch would be if it landed in my lap.

another joke

David, as both a pipe (French cornemuse de centre and Cabrette) and a Cajun accordion player I like them all.
How about this one:

It is very difficult to play the bagpipe

It is a pity that it's not impossible...

Two more....

Q)How does an accordion player dressed in suit begin every sentence?

A)"Yes, your honor."

The neigborhood I live in is really bad. Last evening I left my accordion in the back seat of the car. When I came out in the morning to start the car, my worst fears were realized. There were two more accordions and a bagpipe on the seat with my accordion.

Peace,
Griff

Re: Two more....

Ron:

It's a little drinking village with a fishing problem on the west end of frozen lac Erie.

Peace,

PS:

Bagpiper said "Och aye laddie, I dinna want ya tae think I'm playin' by ear. I kin read music you know."

Symphonic musician said " reading music certainly isn't interfering with your playing."
