Explanation for those who are not Horn players:
The Harmonics on a French Horn are so close together that you can play entire scales without ever using the valves; this makes hitting the right note quite challenging sometimes.
The Joke:
Do you know why the French Horn is a Divine Instrument?
Because a man blows into it, but God only knows what comes out!

That reminds me of a Christmas story about a cymbal . My school was right next door to Norwich Cathedral, and so our Christmas carol service was always held there.
The school, despite supplying boys for the cathedral choir, had just about no other music at all. For the carol service one year, the head of music decided to have a brass group up in the organ loft to accompany some of the carols, in addition to the organ. This used up just about all the instrumentalists in the school. A day or two before the service, he decided also that it would be really nice to have a big clash of cymbals at an appropriate point in one of the carols.
We didn't have any percussion players at all, so the best remaining musician, a cellist, was pressed into service. All went well in rehearsals. However, on the night, he saw & heard a thousand people singing in the nave, and decided that an extra loud cymbal clash would be needed if anyone was going to hear him. He didn't know that cymbals have to be brought together obliquely, and so did a huge clash by ramming them directly towards each other. Inevitably, he turned one of the cymbals inside out!
He was then faced with having to do another clash in the second verse, with an inside-out cymbal. Quickly he put the good one down, put the bad one between his knees and pushed on it for all he was worth. The cymbal snapped back into shape with a tremendous sound BOINK! which could be heard from the back of the cathedral. The brass players all collapsed with laughter, and it was just as well the organist couldn't see us, so he carried on playing.
The cymbal clash for the second verse was quieter!
That one was from here.

-The bass player... Not much of a joke I know: I am just still really tired of the guitar players and singers showing up 20 minutes before a gig and I get to do all of the work.

Good stuff!
How do you get a guitar player to play softer?... Give him some sheet music
What's an accordion good for?... Learning to fold a map
How do you make a million dollars singing jazz?... Start with 2 million
How do you tell if a musician is successful?... His wife has 2 jobs.
A bass player arrived a few minutes late for the first rehearsal of the annual performance of Handel's Messiah.
He picked up his instrument and bow, and turned his attention to the conductor. The conductor asked, "Would you like a moment to tune?"
The bass player replied, "Why? Isn't it the same as last year?"

A guy was visiting Beethoven's grave. As he's standing there, he hears the 9th symphony playing backwards. Shocked, he finds the grave keeper and tells him of the strange occurrence. The grave keeper replies: "Oh, don't be concerned, he's just decomposing."
Mozart at a bar: "One vodka martini, please. Agitato, not appassionato."
"I'm told that Wagner's music is not as bad as it sounds."

How do you get a drummer to stop playing? Put sheet music in front of him.
How many trumpet players does it take to change a lightbulb? 10....one to change it and nine to say how much better they could have done it.
How can you tell if a stage is level? There is drool coming out of both sides of the violist's mouth.
How do you get a trombone to sound like a french horn? Stick your hand in the bell and play a bunch of wrong notes.
