Summary: Didn’t you ever wonder why Davy plays the tambourine or how he got to play that instrument, this here story explains all! Rating: G


3 young men stand in a hot and humid house with the door wide open, playing music. The tallest of the 3 stands playing groovy riffs on a guitar while the shorter blonde stands plucking a bass guitar, all along a 3rd young man sits behind a drum set singing and beating his 7 piece drum set. He sings....

“...Take the last train to Clarksville, I’ll meet you at the station....”

“Stop, stop, hold it Mick, something is missing, but I can’t for the life of me figure out what is missing.” The taller and obviously the leader said.
“Mike, I think I might know what is missing.” The blonde interjected
Mike sighed heavily, “What Pete, what is it that is missing?”
No one ever really took Peter seriously but they listened anyway, just out of respect.
“I think that we need is a tambourine in the background!” Peter says picking up and holding out the tambourine
“Pete that's a dumb idea!” and takes the tambourine and throws it out the open door.
“Come on guys lets go again, maybe the missing link will come to me when we play”

~~~Moments before outside the pad~~~

A short young Englishman is storming around outside.
“Fine! If those blokes don’t want me, I will find someone that does! There is millions of other bands I can be in! Who cares about that one!”
When suddenly something falls from the sky and smacks the short one on the head.
“Owww! What the ‘ell was that?”
He picks it up, and shakes it.
“A tambourine, but where did it come from?”
He suddenly hears music from a house near by and shakes the tambourine repeatedly and in time with the music and walks towards the house.

~~~In the pad~~~

“That’s it guys, sounding good...HOLD IT!”
The music stops abruptly
But the Englishman continues and even does a tambourine solo. When he finishes everyone claps and tells him he was great, which he was.
“Where did you learn to play like that?” Everybody asked.
“Well I just started shaking and got into your song.”

“Fellas! I found the missing link in our song & band!” Mike annouced
“Would you like to be in our band and play tambourine?”

“I would love to but, I don’t even know your names!!!!”
