[crodonilson]

Me and my good time charlie mates were having a heated debate about this in the pub, I've narrowed it donw to those which were debated in the pub so sorry if yours isn't in there.......

 

[Stinkers Bridge]

I don't think you can ever go wrong with a finely tuned horn.

By Eucalayle, do you mean Ukulele ? and if so, what's it doing in a poll about musical instruments.

 

[Man of Harveys]

I thought he meant eucalyptus.

Anyway - anyone who loves Burt Bacharach can't NOT love the flugelhorn.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Burt bacharach







I will go for the Alpine Horn

 

[Man of Harveys]

Have you ever popped such a long one in your mouth David?

 

[Titanic]

Since when did blowing raspberries down a drainpipe count as 'music' ?

 

[Trufflehound]

I would have voted ukulele, but missed the cunning spelling, so ended up going for banjo instead.

Ideally in a duet with a cow's arse.

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Surely it must be a kazoo

Quite a long time. Back around 1981 there was a band called Furious Pig (I think they had a track on the NME C81 cassette) whose entire repertoire consisted of three men blowing down long cardboard tubes to make farting noises.

I saw them play live at the Venue in London (they may have been supporting the Birthday Party, can't remember). It was quite funny - for the first five minutes of what turned into a very long 30 minute set.

Oh the wild heady days of yore...

Oooohhhh controvershal! (Zef's the best bassist I know)

Personally due to my love of the piano thats where my vote went...Cello would get my vote too...

 

[Man of Harveys]

Why do only girls - some of them very fit ones - seem to play the cello? Is it because they're generally more used to fiddling away on large instruments between their legs?

 

[tedebear]

Its just having something soulful between your legs Harv's!!
