Reality Check by Dave Whamond for January 26, 2024

Eh? Cancel culture eh?

Was it the winter of his discontent?

He wrote a lot of concertos, though.

Groan!

We’ll see how many readers get it.

Do you mean I can no longer get seasons tickets?

He went baroque!

Dobie beat me to it. This is hilarious.

Now he’s going to go baroque! What a shame.

Now, they gotta break up the band.

Just wait until the invention of TV, you can watch the reruns.

I like Vivaldi.

Antonio wrote 32 concerti for bassoon. And that was in the 1600s and 1700s when the instruments did not have as many keys as they do today, making playing a bit more difficult.

But Frankie Valli went on to have a successful solo career without them…

Summer better than others.-Tarzan

Few plays on Broadway get four seasons so guess the old priest was happy with his run.

Give it a rest, Ralph.

Well, there’s the lavish buffet and Ball to attend…off we go!

Pretty sure this one will go over a lot of heads.

I thought they closed my browser.

Lasted longer than ‘Firefly’.

The Four Seasons Lawn Care outside Philly? There’s an example of when taking it on the road ain’t better. Plus, Rudy Gulianni can’t do farce.

If you have read this far, you deserve to know that “Four Seasons” is the name of one of Vivaldi’s more popular violin concertos. The joke is that any true classical music fan would know that and this guy is a poser.

“You can’t Handel the truth !”

Even they did not save him from dyeing in poverty.

And he couldn’t even say “I’ll be Bach.”

Ugh.
