Next Band Booster Meeting-January 12, 2009

.................... A sad tale ...................

C, E-flat, and G go into a bar. The bartender says, "Sorry, but we
don't serve minors."

So the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between
them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished and the G is out
flat.

Soon, an F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp
enough.

D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying,
"Excuse me, I'll just be a second."

Then an A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that
this relative of C is not a minor.

Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and
exclaims, "Get out now. You're the seventh minor I've found in this
bar tonight."

The E-flat, not easily deflated, comes back to the bar the next night
in a three-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender (who
used to have a nice corporate job until his company downsized) says,
"You're looking sharp tonight, come on in! This could be a major
development."

This proves to be the case, as the E-flat takes off the suit, and
everything else, and stands there au natural.

Eventually, the C sobers up, and realizes in horror that he's under a rest.

The C is brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the
diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda
at an upscale correctional facility.

On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even
accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless.
