22. Another drummer joke (long)
A drummer dies and goes to heaven.

St Peter takes him on the tour, shows him all the great things you can see and do. After the tour, Peter asks him "So, what would you like to do first?"

The drummer says "Well, I really enjoy playing the drums. Do you have a place where musicians can practice?"

"Sure!" says Peter, and takes him to the music building.
"Here, we have thousands of music rooms. You can practice by yourself, or play with any of the great musicians that have passed on."

The drummer looks around, and hears something familiar. Some great drummer is playing.

He walks down a hall following the sound, and ends up outside a door. Inside, he hears the familiar drumming of his idol, Buddy Rich.

"Wow!" he says to Peter, "I didn't know Buddy Rich was here!"

"He's not" says Peter. "Thats just God. He thinks he's Buddy Rich"
