Preface
Below is the much talked about, Canonical List of Banjo
Jokes. Much talked about, but never revealed; until now.
This presentation is the result of the tireless efforts of
an international network of operatives who combed the earth
(and beyond) checking and cross-checking sources to make
sure that this time we had the real thing: the definitive
list of banjo jokes. Some withstood torture - and some paid
the ultimate price: death. So important was our work that
we persevered in spite of the obstacles.
Before proceeding I would like to add a few words of caution.
Banjo jokes are jokes about banjo players, their music,
their instrument, environmentalism, animal rights, human
sacrifice, and interplanetary grave robbing. These jokes
has never been told in their entirety because they are
dangerously funny: no one has ever lived to retell them in
their entirety.
We had to taken great precautions to
safeguard our health while compiling this list: each
operative was responsible for a manageably sized module of
the jokes (one not to large as to overcome the individual
with so much mirth that would cause him/her to die laughing.)
As I typed these jokes, I was blindfolded: part of the
jokes were related in various, and obscure languages and
dialects, other parts written, and still other parts
transmitted in braille or Morse code.
Therefore, I caution you to do the following:
- Under no circumstances should you read any part of these jokes if
you have a heart condition, stroke, or high blood pressure.
- Form a team, and take turns reading sections of these jokes. If
you find yourself becoming dizzy, or beginning to lose consciousness,
stop immediately.
- If you have taken recreational drugs within the last 24 hours these jokes may cause serious health complications.
- (3) is also true for certain prescription drugs.
- Refrain from eating, drinking, or engaging in sexual
intercourse while reading these jokes.
- If you have any questions, please consult a physician before
attempting to read these jokes.
Are you sure you want to read these jokes?
Is your will in order and your life insurance paid up? Is it really
worth the risks?
This is your last chance to exit before being exposed to
the Complete list of 101 Banjokes. These jokes will change
(or end) your life. I cannot give you any guarantees as to
how these jokes will affect you; it all depends upon your
physical and psychological state (which I cannot know.)
Once again, are you sure that you are ready to read the Canonical
List of Banjo Jokes?
This is you last chance!! I mean it! Stop now before it's too late!
God help you and may the force be with you...

"Give me a beer, and I'll have a banjo picker for my 'gator."

walked into the bar...you'd think the second banjo player would
have seen what happened to the first banjo player and ducked!
[under the bar.]
(75.) The Pope and a banjo player find themselves together before
the Pearly Gates. After a small quantum of time which was spent
discussing their respective professions, ol' Saint Peter shows up
to usher them to their new Heavenly station. After passing out
wings, harps, halos, and such, St. Pete decides to show them to
their new lodgings. Only a brief flight from the welcome, Pete
brings them down on the front lawn (cloud-encrusted, natch) of a
huge palatial estate with all sorts of lavish trappings. This, Pete
announces, is where the banjo player will be spending eternity,
(at least until the end of time...) "Hot Dang," the Pope says to
His-self, "If he's getting a place like this, I can hardly wait to
see my digs!" They take flight once again, and as Pete leads on,
the landscape below begins to appear more and more mundane until
they finally land on a street lined with Brownstone houses. Pete
indicates the third walkup on the left as the Pope's new domicile
and turns to leave, wishing the pontiff his best. The Pope, in a
mild state of astonishment, cries out "Hey Pete! What's the deal
here? You put that banjo player-feller in a beautiful estate
and I, spiritual leader of terra-firma, end up with this dive?
Pete looks at the pontiff amusedly and replies: "Look here
old fellow, this street is practically encrusted with
spiritual leaders from many times and religions. We're
putting you here with them so you guys can get your dogma
together. That other guy gets an estate, because he's the
first (non-)damned banjo player to make it up here!!"
(76.) Saint Peter, wanting the new arrivals to feel at home,
promised to spend some quality time with each one. He asked his
first arrival of the day, "Hi! What's your IQ?" "150," he said.
"Great," said Peter, as he showed the man in, "we should get together
tomorrow and discuss the theory of relativity for a while." He
asked the next person, "What's your IQ?" "120," she said. "Fine,
fine," said Peter, "I'd love to take some time with you Wednesday
to discuss current world politics." To the third person, he asked,
"What's your IQ?" "42," drawled the fellow. "Fantastic!" cried
Peter, "I've been looking for years for somebody who could help me
perform a banjo duet!"
(77.) A banjo player goes to his class reunion and meets up with
the smartest kid in his class, "Hi, how are you doing? What have
you been up to?" he says. "I'm doing experimental brain research
at the Salk Institute," replies the smart kid. Then, our hero sees
another classmate of his, who never was very smart. He walks over
to him and says, "Elroy! How are you doing? I've been meaning to
ask you, What type of picks do you use? Heard any good banjo jokes
lately..."
(78.) Strummin on his ole....
An old man was on his death bed and called his whole family together so that he could bid them farewell and make his peace with the world.
After he said what he wanted to each in turn and he knew he was coming very close to death he called for all to gather together.
"I have one thing I would like to confess before I go," he
said. They all drew closer. "It was me," cough, wheeze, "I
was the one," he said as they leaned down as close as they
could to hear what he could barely get out in a whisper.
Gasp, cough, "I was the one," cough, wheeze, "in the kitchen with Dinah..."
(79.) A man went to a brain store to get some brain for dinner.
He sees a sign remarking on the quality of brain offered at this
particular brain store. So he asks the butcher: "How much for fiddle
player brain?"
"2 dollars an ounce." "How much for mandolin player brain?"
"3 dollars an ounce." "How much for guitar player brain?"
"4 dollars an ounce." "How much for banjo player brain?"
"100 dollars an ounce."
"Why is banjo player brain so much more?"
"Do you know how many banjo players you need to kill
to get one ounce of brain?"
(80.) At a convention of biological scientists one researcher
remarks to another, "Did you know that in our lab we have switched
from mice to banjo players for our experiments?" "Really?" the
other replied, "Why did you switch?" "Well, for three reasons.
First we found that banjo players are far more plentiful, second,
the lab assistants don't get so attached to them, and thirdly there
are some things even a rat won't do. However, sometimes it very
hard to extrapolate our test results to human beings."
(81.) For three years, the young banjo player had been taking
his brief vacations at this country inn. The last time he'd finally
managed an affair with the innkeeper's daughter. Looking forward
to an exciting few days, he dragged his suitcase up the stairs of
the inn, then stopped short. There sat his lover with an infant on
her lap!
"Helen, why didn't you write when you learned you were
pregnant?" he cried. "I would have rushed up here, we could
have gotten married, and the baby would have my name!"
"Well," she said, "when my folks found out about my condition,
we sat up all night talkin' and talkin' and decided it
would be better to have a bastard in the family than a
banjo player."
(82.) Banjo players spend half their lives tuning and
the other half playing out of tune.
(83.) Banjo pickers: we tune because we care...
(84.) I bought mine tuned.
(85.) Banjo players play requests by multiple choice not fill in the blank.
(86.) "You can pick your banjo and you can pick your nose but you can't wipe your banjo on your pants."
(87.) "Anyone can play one of them things - all you need is three fingers and a plastic head"
(88.) The sixth fret on a banjo is a lot like the thirteenth
floor on a building - you don't really need one.
(89.) Banjo players are a lot like sharks - they think they have to keep playing or they'll sink...
(90.) "Banjos are to music as Spam is to food..."
(91.) "He can't hear you, he's playing his banjo--his brain is disconnected..."
(92.) Play Bluegrass Lite! One third Fewer Notes! Less Picking! Sounds Great!
(93.) Second verse same as the first
A little bit faster and a little bit worse
(94.) Banjo rap - Them Banjo Pickers by Mason Williams:
How bout them banjo pickers ain't they fine
Same damn song for three or four times
Them banjo pickers all they know
Is Cumberland Gap and doe see doe
Them banjo pickers talking bout strings
Banjo pegs and other such things
Them banjo pickers them poker faced mugs
They never do smile they just play Scruggs
You want to be a banjo picker you don't need a ticket
Just get yourself a banjo rare back and pick it
(95.) The banjo is such a happy instrument - you can't play a sad
song on the banjo it always comes out so cheerful...
(96.) If you practice, tune, make a sound check, and sit down to play it's folk music otherwise it's bluegrass.
(97.) Some people call it Cripple Creek - but they're wrong!
(98.) I used to play on tv but my mom said get off or I'd break it!
(99.) After you've played the banjo long enough people will pay you to play; however, your neighbors will pay you to stop.
(100.) You can either laugh a little faster or I can tell the jokes a little slower...
(101.) "The only thing worse than telling banjo jokes is laughing at them!"

Epilogue
I started collecting banjo jokes in August of 1990 while preparing
for the Julian Banjo, Fiddle, Guitar & Mandolin Contest. Summertime
is the perfect weather for jamming. The New Expression music store
had their annual camp out to start the summer off and by August,
I hit every bluegrass club meeting in greater San Diego County.
Then one night it happened, I was invited to a jam at a
friend's house so I grabbed my banjo and a strawberry pie,
called another banjo player and invited him to join us and
was off. Well, there were so many banjo players at the jam
that night that one of the bass players started with the
banjo jokes (some of which sound a lot like recycled lawyer jokes.)
I tried to forget them and failed so I started
writing them down but my attempts to regain my sanity were
in vain. At least with this I can practice getting the
jokes right or just call them off by number. My quest for
the perfect banjo joke had begun. The consequences of this
have far outreached any expectations I could have had at the time.
At every bluegrass club meeting, Julian, and
New Expression banjo workshop since I have eagerly interrogated
the other banjo players and bluegrassers for new jokes.
I asked the band at the pizza parlor before they went on
and they started telling jokes in between songs. By then
I knew all the answers and my name was becoming synonymous
with banjo jokes!
I posted my jokes to the folk music and humor news groups of the Usenet electronic computer network which is sent around the world via the National Science
Foundation Internet computer network and got a reply from
banjo pickers from as far away as England and Scotland.
These jokes go out to the members of the Slow-Jam and end
up in the North County Bluegrass & Folk Music Club newsletter
which goes out and ends up...this is great I get people
mailing me banjo jokes from all over the place.
I sent a copy of my joke collection to the Bluegrass Special and
the dj read some on the air for anyone who was awake on
Sunday night at 11:24 pm. It was finals week and it really
made my day to hear my name on the radio. People have
started to recognize me at bluegrass jams around town as
"the guy with all the dumb banjo jokes."
#1. Down in the bluegrass crossword puzzle in the June 1991 issue
of the San Diego Bluegrass Club newsletter says "Darrell Reich
always has a new one. (two words)" [nine letters.] #1.
Across is "That high lonesome sound...."
I usually start jamming with the joke of the week to warm up. One
of the nicest compliments I've gotten is when someone told me,
"Hey Darrell, I thought you just carried that thing [my
banjo] around and told jokes all day but you're actually
pretty good!" [at playing the banjo not telling jokes.] I
had just told all my jokes and then jumped in with Whiskey
Before Breakfast, the song I picked to play at Julian this year.
The critics [non-banjo players] say, "you would have
to be a banjo player to enjoy these jokes - I'm sure you
and the boys are still laughing..." and it's true fer sure!
So, this is it, my 101 banjo jokes, The Canonical List,
numbered and illustrated complete with preface, disclaimer,
dedication, glossary, epilogue, and appendices, perfect to
just stuff in your case so you'll never be without a comment
on stage or at a jam. Even by yourself - you'll always have
a reason to smile. Enjoy. Keep those cards and letters
coming! I've got one more year of college before I've got
to go and get a real job [the banjo player for Apple
Computers Inc.?!?] If I had to do it all over again, I'd
make the same mistake....

Appendix B: Ten easy steps to better banjo playing...
The Doc Stock Banjo Method
or Any jerk can play the banjo
so why not you too?
by Jim Rosenstock
Lesson 1: Beat It!
The most common mistake of the beginning banjo player is to play
too gently. True, musical instruments require great care and
special handling, but banjos should not be confused with these.
There are three basic licks that are used in playing the banjo:
the hit (abbreviated h in tablature), the harder hit (H), and the
beat (B). Learn these three licks, and soon you'll be able to play
anything! Remember - Hit 'em again, hit 'em again, harder, harder!
Lesson 2: Stage Presence
A dignified stage presence will do more
than anything else to create the impression that you are a serious,
professional musician. This is to be avoided at all costs - you have
a reputation to maintain, after all! While playing on stage, you
should: (1) slouch, (2) drool, (3) pick nose, (4) bump fiddler,
(5) cross eyes, (6) pour beer on self, and/or (7) stare off into
space. The more you can do at once, the better.
Lesson 3: Tuning your banjo
Musicians make a very big deal about "getting in tune."
Fortunately, you're a banjo player, and therefore need not
be so hung up. There are three basic ways to tune a banjo:
(1) With a tuning fork: Tap the fork on a hard surface. Listen to the
clear bell-like tone. Make sure none of your strings duplicate this tone.
(2) With an electric tuner: Tap the tuner on a hard
surface. Continue as with method (1).
(3) With a fiddle: Tap the fiddle on a hard surface. Continue as above.
Lesson 4: Tunes and Tablature
It's a well-kept secret that there are really only four tunes
in old-time music: the G Tune, the A Tune, the D Tune, and the C Tune.
It's an even better-kept secret that these four tunes sound
exactly the same. Tablature is a simplified form
of musical notation used by musicians to preserve music on paper.
Avoid all tablature - you will get nowhere as a banjo player by
imitating musicians.
Lesson 5: Drugs, FastFret(tm), pizza, strawberry pie, & Banjo Playing
Just say, "Why not?" [refer to page 1 and Appendix A]
Lesson 6: Playing with Musicians
Playing with musicians is always scary for the beginning
banjo player. You should not be intimidated,
though, because musicians like to have a banjo player or two around.
Even the most mediocre group of musicians will sound great by
contrast when a banjo player is added. So get in there and start jamming!
Lesson 7: Banjo Paraphernalia
A capo allows the banjo player, once out of tune
in one key, to quickly be out of tune in any other key.
A case protects your banjo from abuse,
except when it is being played. This is really unimportant, but
where else can you put all your cool bumper stickers?
A dog will follow a banjo player around and keep everyone uncertain as to which is responsible for the odor.
Beer is the experienced banjo player's favorite liquid to spill on
the dance floor, dancers, and/or musicians. Sometimes
it is filtered through the kidneys first.
Lesson 8: Name That Tune
As mentioned previously,
there are only four tunes, and they all sound the same. It is
definitely uncool, however, to let on in public that you know this,
so here's a list of titles for The Tune: Turkey in the Straw, Bug
in the Taters, Paddy on the Turnpike, Fire on the Mountain, Billy
in the Lowground, Drugs in the Urine Sample, Christ on a Crutch,
Monkey in the Dog Cart, Logs in the Bedpan, Ducks in the Millpond,
Pigeon on a Gate Post, Water on the Knee.
Lesson 9: Three Myths Dispelled
Myth Number 1: It takes hard work and talent to play the banjo.
Fact: The only talent most banjo players have is
a talent for avoiding hard work.
Myth Number 2: You can make good money playing the banjo.
Fact: People will frequently pay you much better money to stop.
Myth Number 3: Your banjo will make you friends wherever you go.
Fact: This is only true if you never go anywhere.
Lesson 10: The Universal Banjo Tune

Appendix C: Telling jokes by the numbers...
A tabloid reporter went to the annual banjo joke teller's
convention to report on it for her newspaper. Part of the
convention was a joke competition. The first comedian came
out and said, "Number 236." The crowd burst out laughing.
The next comedian walked on stage and said, "Number 1265."
A round of laughter gripped the audience. Some of the people
around the reporter even fell out of their chairs.
Another one came out and said, "Number 876." The chuckling lasted
for minutes. The confused reporter turned to the person
seated next to her and asked, "I don't get it. Why are they
just saying numbers?" The guy replied, "Well, we know all
the jokes by numbers, so all the competitors have to do is
give the number."
The next comedian came out and said,
"Number 834." Silence. Not even a guffaw... The reporter
asked, "What happened?" "Some people just don't know how
to tell a joke."
The next comedian came out and said,
"Number 1254." The audience erupted with raucous laughter.
More hysterics than any of the previous comedians. The
reporter asked, "What happened?" "That was a joke we had
never heard before."
