Cow Bells - do they serve any other purpose other than to annoy everyone in the neighborhood?

1. All I know is that we just need more of them

2. It's A Bovine Alarm

To let them know if there are "bullies" in the neighborhood.

3. You can never have too much cowbell.

There aren't a whole lot of songs that feature the cowbell. So you are doing all of us a disservice so remember ... always perform the hell out of it (the cowbell). I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell.

On Edit ... BTW what neighborhood do you live in where cowbells are a problem?

[Aristus]

6. Yes. They're my prescription when I gotta fever...

[Sancho]

7. They keep cows from sneaking up on you from behind!

Too bad we can't put cow bells on concealed permit gun possessors!

[UTUSN]

8. Not to mention the poor cows they annoy!1 "Doctor, I get this *RINGING* every step, every move!1"n/t

[hibbing]

9. Dinner time

My mom used to ring me home for dinner with one when I was out playing. I wish I had that thing, fond memories, and she doesn't know what happened to it.

Peace

11. so you can find sneaky animals in the brush,

on horses to serve as a "lead" sound. We had a BLM burro that liked to stay with the cows, so I put a bell on her. Those brushy longhorns probably didn't appreciate it. LOL
