Harmony's night out

C, E-flat and G entered a bar.

The bartender said, "Sorry, I don't serve minors".

The E-flat left and the C and G had an open fifth between them.

After a few drinks, the fifth was diminished and the G was out flat.

An F entered and tried to augment the situation but was not sharp enough.

A D entered and excused himself to the bathroom, saying "I'll be just a second".

An A entered but the bartender wasn't convinced that this relative of C was not a minor.

Then the bartender noticed a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar. "Get out right now' he yelled "you're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight".

The next night the E-flat returned to the bar in a 3 piece suit. The bartender said "You're looking sharp tonight. This could be a major development".

This was the case, when the E-flat took off the suit and stood there au natural.

Eventually the C sobered up and realized he was under a rest.

He was brought to trial, found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and was sentenced to ten years of D.S. without the the possibility of a coda.

On appeal, he was found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental, because the accusation was bassless.

The bartender decided he needed a rest -- and closed the bar
