The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for April 10, 2024

Wawa Wawa girl?

even her hair color is brassy!

Waaa waaa wa wa wa waaaaa.

The best Charlie Brown music is when’s he’s walking down the street. That piano is still great today!

Reminiscent of offthemark/2019/05/17

“So far reaction to he performance has been muted”.

Her prize pupil, Gerald McBoing-Boing, went on to bigger and better things.

Later, they merged bands and became

“Peaches and Herb Alpert and the Minneapolis Brass”.

Had to hunt the web to find out about Lee Mendelson and Vince Guaraldi to make sense of that…

With the 3 Stooges Larry on the trumpet!

She doesn’t need an instrument!

Have any of you seen the clips on you tube of an orchestra doing spaghetti western music? It’s amazing. This reminded me of them.

If it was drawn intentionally, that’s a pretty good depiction of holding the mute in the French horn.

St Paul Brass Quartet would be more accurate.

Well done!

Actually the sign says: “Minneapolis Bras Quartet”

Oh it took a second !

Wha?

She does the trombone parts. (She plays the part of the trombone.)

? and ?

I have no idea what the joke here is. Peanuts never showed an adult, much less a teacher.

Could someone explain this to me?

Wah-wah-wah, wah wah

I expected to see a round headed kid in the audience.

He was from St. Paul, not Minneapolis

Why is the trumpet upside-down?

Wah, wah, wa-wah-wa….

For all those questioning: Here’s the explanation….. you’ll have to type in the “you tube” /watch?v=7xOTLkFoSXA

Still don’t get it. Who’s Charlie Brown’s teacher? Mark, age 72

I have to get this one stupid joke out of my system after seeing today’s comic.

“Knock, knock!”

“Tuba.”

“Tuba who?”

“Tuba toothpaste.”

Seen on Captain Kangaroo many moons ago.

If she played guitar, she wouldn’t need a “Wah-Wah” pedal.

She does the scatting. ???

Obscure, at best.

She could only play the mutted parts.

They’ve allowed this to “slide” for too long.

Charles “Sparky” Schultz was proudly from Saint Paul, Minnesota. Minneapolis is “that other city”.

Mrs. Othmar?

I’m glad Scott doesn’t draw a left-handed tuba.

None of these guesses really seem to make sense. I checked with 3 neighbors and none of us smoke cannabis or consume magic mushrooms, so we’re stumped!

She is an instrument all by herself.

What’s the cutoff age for getting this joke?

I don’t get it, please enlighten me!
