Ensemble! Puns

Dad: "Ok, How do I acquire a vocal ensemble?"

Nothing beats sax on the beach!

"Al Gore Rhythm"

Every year for the past few years, I’ve written music for a tuba ensemble for a summer band camp. Last year’s music was titled “TubaChristmas in July,” which had “Hallelujah” by Pentatonix, “Carol of the Bells,” “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” and “Have Yourself a Merry TubaChristmas.” This year I’m about 90% sure we’re doing rock/classic rock. So far I have “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen, “Paint It, Black” by The Rolling Stones, “Livin’ on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi, “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey, and some fifth song I haven’t chosen yet (BTW I’m open to song ideas).

I need a pun that mixes Tuba with Rock or with Classic Rock. Similar to how TubaChristmas in July doesn’t include song names, but you know it’s Christmas music on tubas.

She was telling me about a handbell ensemble she's in, and asked if I was familiar with one of the songs they're practicing.

I said "Hmm... it doesn't ring a bell."

She giggled and said "That's terrible."

She was telling she had to hang back after her tap class because "they needed a soprano for singing ensemble".

I said, "Why didn't they give Tony a call?"
