Your Tuesday Music-Themed Cartoon Chuckles
Of course, you do have to be at least over 50 to get that last one. 😎
Sigh– yet more banjo bashing– this time, almost literally. I'm surprised the artist didn't lay out the text with 'Oshkosh' stacked on the left and 'Calling' along the bottom, as in the Elvis Presley and Clash iterations. But, then, what is the point of this forum if not to indulge in the pedantic? I could go on...
Let me continue, Oshkosh Begosh 😁 #4 - do I detect an Eminem nod here - my name is, my name is 🤔 And oh yeah let's not forget Triggers sidekick, Bullet
I'm more than a bit over 50, and that's funny. The live thing is more sad than funny.
ReplyDeleteThe concert filming is one I’ve suffered far too often for it to be funny. The horse joke is very good.
Delete- Paul in DK
Another great batch. I had to think about the horses for a second but when I got the joke I cackled.

ReplyDeleteJohn Sebastian, to a person in the front row filming the concert on his phone: "It's almost like being there!'
ReplyDelete#1 Guns of Sheboygan maybe?🤔

Delete"Guns of Brixton"...London Calling - good one
