JimLucas Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Do priests and preachers pray that they'll press the right buttons? And if they hit a bum note, does that mean their faith wasn't strong enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2maur Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Are Nuns more likely to develop bad habits on the concertina? BTW, this is one of the funniest and most refreshing threads I've ever read. This is going to keep me chuckling unexpectedly for days to come. Thanks to everyone with too much free time.

bellowbelle Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Is Wendy (me) just WIND bag....and, maybe that's a good thing, when it comes to keeping the bellows blowing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimLucas Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Would twins play only duets? And a home handyman plays a duet-yourself concertina? Candle makers play only Dippers. Bandits play only bandoneons. Jackie Chan insists on a concertina with fast action. Emergency service workers demand quick response from theirs. One fashion designer tried substituting velcro for the buttons, but the notes kept sticking. Steven Spielberg must play a Gremlin. Does your local library have a special 'reeding' room for concertina players? Demand your Constitutional right to a free press (and draw)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musical priest Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Do priests and preachers pray that they'll press the right buttons? And if they hit a bum note, does that mean their faith wasn't strong enough? O dear, I am actually a parson - and I do hit them bum notes quite often. Now I'm in a deep crisis - my faith is not strong enough? Downstairs I go now to fetch my concertina for an hour or two of hard praying ...

Alan Day Posted November 21, 2004 Author Share Posted November 21, 2004 Do Naturists have problems with bellows? Do Contortionists play with both hands through the same wrist strap?

JimLucas Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Do an octopus and a spider play only Æolas? My parrot has never played concertina, but I'll bet he could wing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premo Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 My parrot has never played concertina, but I'll bet he could wing it. I have a cheap (Chinese made, I believe) accordion that has the manufacturers name 'Parrot'. So...Your parrot could play a Parrot (and probably get the bird).

stuart estell Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 My parrot has never played concertina, but I'll bet he could wing it. I have a cheap (Chinese made, I believe) accordion that has the manufacturers name 'Parrot'. So...Your parrot could play a Parrot (and probably get the bird). If not, it could always buy a huge-number-of-buttons anglo, and instead of replacing novelty bird whistle buttons with extra notes, replace all the notes with novelty bird whistles Actually, a concertina comprised entirely of novelty buttons would be fantastic. It would be the most expensive Early Learning toy money could buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Madge Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Do millers play Wheat-stones? Is it a perversion to like a Lash- enal? Do you have to be Welsh to play a Jones? Do only L.M.S.R. enthusiasts play Crabs? How many undestood the last one? Robin Madge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
