Garfield by Jim Davis for February 06, 2021

And that’s when he starts living alone

you sure had a thing for the accordion, Mr. Arbuckle

Hey, someone had to smash it.

Well, he’s no Weird Al.

haha, good staring sad ending

I think the accordion is a nice instrument, why make fun of it.

Being like Jon is a talent itself, Garfield.

Sure Jon, they went screaming alright, they all hated your polka music.

And then he switched from the accordeon to the bagpipes…

The audience has left the building.

I hate accordions, banjos but love bagpipes.

Very Impressing, Jon! Read more!

And yet he didn’t get the clue and still loves playing the accordion!

There’s worse music than accordion: any kind of rap.

I remember one talent show I participated in. I had taught myself a couple of simple, rudimentary “twirls” with the baton, and choreographed a routine to “All For the Best” from Godspell. There was one other baton twirler in the show; a girl who had been doing it for years. The audience liked mine better. Hers had technicality; mine had musicality.

Jon, you should have learned to play the sax, did wonders for Bill.

For once, the crowd showed good taste.

I wish but I think not….

“Perfect Pitch”: they threw it in the trash can without hitting the rim.

Well, they DID go wild. Just not in the way we’d hope.

Something tells me that performance did not land Jon first place in the talent show.

They obviously weren’t Polka lovers!!!

Here’s a little something for Jon to aspire to: https://youtu.be/32osODmoW9c

Sometimes, you even feel bad for losers

Love the comics!

Jon your schoolmates could only handle hearing, “Lady Of Spain” so many times before they went postal.

Big rip

He should have gone with the bagpipes.

I wonder what kind of “wild” That was,angry wild? Or happy wild? Probably angry wild or probably:crazy wild and disappointed wild,LOL

the accordion is not inherently annoying, one time my granduncle found one on the shelf at our local k-mart and just started playing it on a whim, he drew a legit crowd of admirers consisting of shoppers AND staff. When his impromptu performance was done I made sure it was properly put back in the box so the staff wouldn’t get in trouble.

If Jon was on “The Voice”, then all four judges would strike him out and make him the first person eliminated from the show. That is my guess. #notalentnoskill :)

It seems as though concertina players are better at defending their main squeeze box than accordion players.

you know, I wish Arlene and Garfield could announce that they’re either going steady or even marrying- that would be a cool change.

Unforgettable….. ok, forgettable.

poor guy :o(

OK all you accordion haters, tell me truthfully that you find THIS music obnoxious:

Duh they smashed your accordion, Jon. What do you expect?

Learn to play good songs Jon.

was it polka music?

So the crowd literally went wild? Seems like it.

I just felt like changing it, that’s all @Dogface
