These are to be followed by a rim-shot, cymbal crash, so be sure to alert your drummer!

"When I was young, we were so poor my Mom couldn't afford even Hamburger Helper. We had to buy Helper Helper."

"When I was young our house was so small, that if you wanted to come into my room, you had to go to bed!"


"Be generous tonight (if you pass the hat), because our drummer is so old and poor he can only afford to buy foods which end in "A-Roni".

There ya go. I wrote those myself and I'm giving them to you to use onstage.

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Hi phill back in the nineties ther was alot of fooling around with others by telling jokes about your mama is so dumb she did such and such so it got some laughs and mainly for entertainment. Re-read some of those above you may understand.

It's ok Phill.  An English friend made a joke about some ham with beer thing once and I totally didn't get it at all.  I looked pretty silly asking for an explanation (I think).  Then another English friend talked about eating crisp sandwiches and I thought THAT was a joke, but it wasn't at all.  The humor (or humour as you spell it - because clearly we don't always even spell the same English, let alone speak it LOL) on different sides of the pond can often be quite different.  smile

I never cared for the you mama jokes.  Maybe because I'm a mama.  tongue

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

My current favourite is about the woman who was arrested for bludgeoning her husband to death with his guitar collection.

At her appearance in court, the judge asked "First offender?"

To which she replied "No! First a Gibson and then a Fender"

lol

Roger

P.S. As Amy now knows (I ate some at her home) crisp sandwiched are a British delicacy. They are even on the Aer Lingus flight menu. Great with tomato ketchup on too. smile

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! smile

I sat here and cackled until I woke the lovely Dondra up. I blamed it on you, of course, Roger! smile smile smile smile

Hilarious! You get an A+ for that one, my friend!

Now I got that one, and if you got to die....that's the way to do it.

I used to do an hour of comedy in my act, but all the jokes, the clean ones anyway, have left my memory or should that be forgetery?

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Hi, Roger

Out of curiosity, I looked up "Crisp Sandwiches" and found what's included in the recipe. Here, as Amy probably told you, we eat the crisps on the side. We're going to try your recipe tonight, however. For dessert it's Cinnamon Graham Crackers with ice cream. Yum!

I like that one. I hope Phill or any of the British do not ask about You Might be a Redneck Joke's. I about How you call cigrettes fags and wake me up in the morning is said Knock me up in the morning!! .   Fags over here are Gay guys and Knock up is another way of saying a women is Pragnent.

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

the americanism; OK comes from the scottish; och aye meaning well yes!

our jelly is your jello

your chips are our crisps

your french fries....well they're just awful, we (in wales) call them skinny chips

your beer is our lager, beer to us is mild or bitter (it's not really bitter, or warm)

our plectrum is your pick

our bonnet is your hood, our boot is your trunk which to us is what an elephant has hanging down the front end lol

and ref mr harding; a harp is a mouth organ and slide guitar is bottle neck...go figure

who cares anyway, musos don't need to talk to be understood

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Your muso is our musician. lol

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Phill - Roger and I had a VERY FUN time talking about these very things when he was here.  The best was something he said about a duck... it would have made little sense here, though sounded like quite an insult... and he meant it in the nicest possible way!  Ha ha ha!  Good times... good times... (meanwhile, he was frustrated with having to ask for no ice in his drinks because here, we ice everything!  Americans are so cold!  hee hee hee)

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Amy,

Same way in Germany (about the ice, I mean). You ask for ice there, you get it in half inch squares, not crushed. If you go back, you get a look like, "I just 3 minutes ago GAVE you some ice! Ya think I'm the ice fairy, or something?"

At least the beer is cold - for a while.

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Talking of ice....Ann my better half, drinks vodca and lemonade (the fizzy kind) and will give me hell if I return from the bar with ice in it saying; more ice less vodca, so no ice. Thought you might like to know that?

Re: Some Free Jokes For On-Stage Patter

Well Roger told me he has chuffed one day. Here, I thought it had been a lovely day and was wondering what had upset him. Uh...apparantly being chuffed is a good thing. It sounded downright unpleasant to me.

I had heard from another Englishman (JJ who's rarely around anymore) that it can mean really ticked off OR it can mean really good stuff.

Fizzy lemonade?  um.... or is it a drink that's already mixed that happens to be fizzy?  OR is it Vodka, Lemonade, and seltzer water? Love me some Vodka, but whatever it's with it must have ice.  I think the only thing I drink without ice though is milk, hot cocoa and coffee ... actually... sometimes iced coffee is good too!

this side of the pond we can buy just plain old lemonade in a bottle or on draft, like beer. assuming that you cant your side of the pond it's like 7 up or lilt, which we have to ask for in spain etc, cos they don't do lemonade.

i make that point because i've seen US movies where people sit on the porch drinking home made lemonade from a pitcher! personally, i like bubbles in my lemonade/beer and as cold as ice.:P

I'VE GOT A FEW IN THE FRIDGE, BYE

Ahhhh... I may have gotten Roger hooked on Mountain Dew (citrus flavored carbonated beverage with TONS of caffeine in it... in Central NY we call these carbonated drinks "Soda" aka "soda-pop" - in Western NY they just call it "pop") when he was here.  Yes, 7up... Sprite... etc.  That makes sense. 

Yup, when we say lemonade we mean a concoction of fresh squeezed lemon juice, water, and sugar.  smile  ALWAYS made by the pitcher full!
