• A guy wanted to play bass in a band. The band told him, “Okay, but you will have to have 1/3 of your brain removed.” So the guy went into surgery.

• A man goes to a pacific island for vacation. As the boat nears, he notices the constant sound of drumming. As he gets off the boat, he asks a native how long the drumming will go on. The native casts about nervously and says “very bad when drumming stops.”
Later that day, the drumming is still going and it is really starting to get to him. So, he asks another native when the drumming will stop. The native looks as if he’s just been spooked. “Very bad when drumming stops,” he says, and hurries off.

After a couple of days with little sleep, the man had had enough. He grabbed the first native he saw, slammed him up against a tree, and shouted, “What happens when the drumming stops?!”

The native replied, “Bass solo.”

 

• A New York drummer by the name of Joe was out of work and desperately searching for a gig. He went to the union office where they told him about plentiful jobs in Greece. “Greece?, the drummer said. The union representative replied, “Hey, do you want to work or don’t you?”.

So the man packed his bags and headed off to Greece. He was to meet up with an old guy by the name of Tarek at a small pub near the town of Perin. Upon his arrival, he located the pub but Tarek was nowhere to be found.

He tracked Tarek down later by phone. He said he needed him for a last minute wedding gig tonight at the Oasis hotel. There would be over 400 guests but unfortunately there wouldn’t be time for a rehearsal. Tarek said, “Just show up with your drums and be ready to play.” Well, the NY drummer wasn’t that nervous. He he had played hundreds of wedding gigs back in New York and he was just happy to have some work.

Joe arrived at the hotel on time. The whole band was there except the band leader, Tarek. He set up his drums and patiently awaited for the old guy. Tarek finally arrived 5 minutes before they were supposed to go on. He frantically set up his music stand and raised his arm to lead the band. “Wait!, shouted the NY drummer, what are we playing?” Tarek looked at him calmly (knowing he was a professional drummer) and stated, “Just relax and give me strong backbeats on 7 and 13.”
