Percussionist jokes?

• What do you do with a horrible trumpet player? Give him 2 sticks and put him with the drummers. What do you do if he still can’t make it? Take away one stick and put him in front of the group!
• The most dangerous part about playing cymbals is near the nose!
• What did the xylophone player say at her first gig? Can I super-size that Pepsi for you?
• What do you call someone who hangs out with musicians? A drummer. (My answer to that is, don't be a "drummer", be a PERCUSSIONIST! Be flexible, responsible, play with authority and musicality, and experiment with ALL of the percussion instruments!)
