And the Band Played On and On

Every time I think all the band names have been taken, I hear of a new band with a wonderful, memorable, stupid name.

John Denver is one of my favorite performers of all time. Wish I had seen him live.

I like the Celtic Women, for a song or two, but it’s not the kind of thing I want to sit through a whole concert of.

And I don’t even like the original song. Mainly because I don’t like the movie it’s in. I don’t like musicals.

I’ve sung it this way all my life and no one has noticed. I think they’re just trying to ignore my singing all together.

No, Phydeaux’s explanation makes no sense. The punchline is really in the second panel.

If you had Doctor Tuttle in your local paper, you would have seen this one before Christmas! Call your editor today!

For those who are thinking this is a riff on “What Child Is This?” it’s not. It’s from a song called “The Peace Carol”.

I’ve sung it this way all my life. I’ve tried to explain the joke to people, but they just don’t have a sense of humor, I guess.

Google doesn’t agree with my spelling of “somnologist” but I got it straight from the dictionary.
