Of course humour has a place in music. It's everywhere. Examples: Django slipping the funeral theme into blues en mineur, or the conversations in the middle of the two My Sweet recordings. Julian Bream did a great video for his Guitarra series in the 80's in which two Breams sit opposite each other and exchange all sorts of little gestures whilst playing Boccarini(...spelling?...)'s fandango for two guitars. Old Hip Hop characters like Big Daddy Kane and KRS1 were riotously funny....need i go on?
