Ok, so due to research for an art project at school I now how a large collection of musical jokes. About instruments, theory stuff, and just music in general! Now, some people might be offended by a couple of the jokes cuz they are a little mean, but please know that I have told every single one of these to the instrumentalist corresponding with them, and they all thought they were funny. So I think it's ok to tell them. And just so you all know, I'm a French Horn player (played for 7 years), and in the past I have also played Piano (8yrs), Violin (2yrs) and Viola(2yrs), and I like the jokes.
So without further delay, here's all the jokes I can write on the fly from memory:
How do you tune 2 oboes? -shoot 1. How do you tune 2 piccolos? -shoot both.
What do French Horn players use for birth control? -their personalities.
What's the difference between a trombone player and a savings bond? -a savings bond matures in time.
Jimmy: Mommy I wanna be a trombone player when I grow up. Mom: But Jimmy, you can't do both.
Who does the lobster call when his piano is out of pitch? -the Tuna.
What do you call half a tuba? -a One-ba.
How many trumpet players does it take to screw in a lightbulb? -one to screw it in and 20 to say they could have done it better. (I told this to our trumpet section leader and he loved it so much he told it to all our trumpet players)
How many French Horn players does it take to chance a lightbulb? -just one, but they'll spend two hours checking it for alignment and leaks.
So, a C, E Flat and a G walk into a bar. The bartender stops them and says "Sorry we don't serve minors." So the E Flat leaves and the C and G split a 5th. Well after several rounds of drinks the G begins to feel very flattened, and the whole situation becomes diminished.
Flute and Oboe players make things happen. Trumpet and Percussion players watch things happen. And Trombone and French Horn players wonder, what the heck happened?
Ok, so there's this kid in kindergarten and one day he come's home and says "Mommy today we learned how to count! The other kids got stuck at around 6 or 7 but I made it all the way to 10!" "That's because your a violinist." The next day he comes home and says "Mommy today we learned the Alphabet, the other kids couldn't get pask L or M but I got all the way to Z!" "Very good, that's because you a violinist." The next day he comes home and says "Mommy today we measured how tall we are and I'm the tallest in my class! Is that because I'm a violinist?" "No dear that's because your 20."
What makes the French Horn such a divine instrument? -Man blows in it, but only God knows what comes out!
How many musician jokes are there? -only one, all the rest are true!
How many drummers does it take to chance a lightbulb? -None, there's a machine to do that now.
What's the difference between a clarinet and a mouse? -you can't hear a mouse squeak over the band!
I guess by now you've all heard of the guy who held 100 accordian players hostage and if wasn't given $10,000,000, threatened to release 1 an hour.
Well that's all I can remember right now. As I said, I told these jokes to people who played the same instruments and they all thought they were funny or true, or both. So again I apoligize if any of you don't agree. Don't take it personally, they're only jokes.

noneck91 why arn/t there any baritone jokes? crying i feel left out sure there are! How do you know when a baritone player is at your door? You don't. They can't find the right key and they don't know when to make an entrance BARITONE: noun - a device for doubling with trombones except using the right notes (sometimes). Also used for playing during silence (especially solos of silence)
