Musician Joke

After years of hiding the fact that the love is gone, the last child moves out of the house and Mom and Dad announce they are getting a divorce.

The kids are so distraught, they hire a marriage counselor as a last resort at keeping the parents together. The counselor works for hours, trying all of his methods, but the couple won't even acknowledge eachother's presence.

Finally, the counselor goes over to a closet, brings out a beautiful upright bass, and begins to play. After a few moments, the couple starts talking. They discover that they're not actually that far apart and decide to give their marriage another try.

The kids are amazed and ask the counselor how he managed to do it.

He replies, "I've never seen anyone who wouldn't talk during a bass solo."
