How do I get the banjo out of my ear
Apparently there's a banjo in my ear. It's playing F above middle C about once every 20 seconds sometimes several notes in a row.

It's out of tune.

How do I make it stop?

1. I recommend a harmonica in the armpit...Works every time for me...
If that doesn't work, you might try a harpsichord in the parlor...

2. You should be able to push it out by sticking a mandolin in the other ear

4. In the first place, there's no such thing as an out-of-tune banjo...
that makes the rest of your post suspicous... :D

10. I think the bigger question here
is where did you get a miniature banjo, and why didn't you have it tuned before you put it in your ear. Duh!:eyes::D

Also, in the future when you insert small musical instruments into your ears, please document fully if you expect advice on how to stop it; a lot depends on positioning, the color of the hair inside your ears, etc. Photos would be helpful. Thanks! :hi:

11. Or perhaps the real problem ...
.. is that you have over-large ears.

In which case I should keep a lookout for winged chariots as well as stray banjos.

12. I wouldn't worry too much...
...about the banjo. It's the banjo player that's in there with it that I would be concerned about. Banjo players are known deviants.
