yeah, they play the piao
It's piano without the 'no' put on.
This whole meme has more chromosomes than a special needs kid bus.
Guitarist: the liquid is whiskey
Hey now, don't call me out like that
I'm a brassist and that stuff usually ends up on your or your neighbors shoes and clothes, or the floor.
Trumpet players dumping their spit valves on the floor all around their feet never ceases to disgust me lol
They are marking their territory.
I think more disgusting would be if they collected it in a little cup and drank it
I play tuba, not really that gross, everyone does it in my band
Pianist here, can confirm.
*Piaist
Violist and yes, this is accurate
Mind explaining that one? I came to the comments specifically to see why violinists would say that.
I think it’s a joke about how there are never parts for the viola.
Not really; if you ask a brass player, violists have more than enough to do. I meant it more like a standard viola joke that there is nothing going on in their heads :P
edit: fixed typo
Why are they known for being dumb?
The violin is a lot more prestigeful and has more difficult parts than the viola, so violinists kind of see them as those who wanted to play the violin but weren't good enough. I guess it actually has to do more with the fact that nobody ever notices the viola since they are awkwardly in the middle, and that they therefore have less motivation to bother to count bars or play correctly in general. Either way they do tend to either forget to play or play the wrong notes every once in a while.

violist, ah, I misread the op as violinist.
Do you just not drink water?
I was having a good time checking each one out, then the I got to the bassoonist and lost it.
Here, have a hot bassoon pic you didn't ask for
Another pic you didn't ask for (bonus points if you can name the piece)
The notes make me want to say Alhambra, but the pieces of text I see look more like the man with no name theme
C'mon, it's about the most famous bassoon solo there is
(hint: it's in tenor clef)
You'll have to forgive, my I played clarinet, and my classical training ended almost 20 years ago. Bassoonery? Maybe the halls of the mountain king?
It's the opening of The Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky :)
ewwwwww brassist 😵💫 lololol
+ for percussionist :)
