That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for July 11, 2019

“First of all, I’m not from Spain!”

These kids with their noise makers now-a-days!

“You do? I love muddy feet too!” (In fact, play something by Muddy Waters, maybe “Good Morning Little Schoolgirl” or “Mannish Boy”).

Hillary almost peed herself when she heard the first tortured notes from Gunter’s squeezebox. In fact, it was more than ‘almost’.

Mama’s got a squeezebox, and Daddy doesn’t sleep at night!

And boy did I just date myself. Again.

Girl thinks to self : "Silly me, I thought he wanted to skinny-dip. Yet he kept asking me if I had a yellow, polka- dot, bikini !

Boy waits in vain for upskirt shot.

“Thank God .. at last we can play those duets I wrote for my bagpipes !”

Modern dating: “I should probably tell you that I’m trans…”

“Oh please honey!!!” Don’t play another note or I will scream!!!!!!!

“I’m not stupid. You’re not looking up my dress.”

she was hoping for harmonica, I’ll wager.

The prettiest girl in town/ almost fell for the rustic clown/ but the first time he played/ the relationship frayed/ and they found him floating face-down.

You really want me to trade it in for bow and arrows, Katniss?

Could have been worse. Might have been the sitar.

“I know you love me. I know you can do multiplication tables all the way to the nines. I know you can swing a bat real good and you can run fast. But can you kiss like my doggie Sparky? Can you do that? If you can, we’re good to go.”

Girl: Play something from Led Zeppelin Boy: I don’t know anything from Led Zeppelin Girl: Great!

“Let me squeeze out a tune for you big boy. Unnnn…..PFTTTT

Fenstra: Has “…now you show me your squeezebox” ever worked? Heinrik: No but I’m feeling pretty good about my chances today!

Ticklin’ the ivories…

Definition of a Gentleman: Someone who CAN play the accordion, but DOESN’T.

Weird Al Yancovich first attemp to impress an audience….

both have sparse info about this artist (the 2nd in Swedish; again, Chrome can automatically translate), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the title URL. This is the first work by him used here.

Lawrence Welk – The Early Years.

You brought me out here to hear you play? Oh, I thought you meant something else.

The boy is playing a concertina.

“Do you know ‘Smoke on the Water’?”

“Could you wait a minute before you play another song? I really have to pee…”

Albert, hoping that the gust o wind from the music box will lift grace’s skirt.

geez … I skipped going to the dentist for this? :(

Free Bird!
