    I hate to rain on anybody's parade, but most of these have been recycled from jokes about other instruments.
    For instance,
    Q:What do you call a drummer who just broke up with his girlfriend?
    A:Homeless.

    Viola players? Really? Which is bigger, a violin or a viola? - Actually, they're the same size, it's just that the violin players' heads are so much bigger

    Q: How many bagpipers does it take to change a light bulb?

    A: Just one, he hangs on to it and drinks 'till the room spins.

    Q: How many pipe majors does it take to change a light bulb?

    A: Again just one. He hangs on to the bulb and waits for the world to revolve around him.

    I love these! I've heard some of them used on Oboes before though.

    I was really puzzled by these until I remembered that the US has screw fittings on bulbs. Ours have a bayonet fitting, push and twist very slightly.
