The Tale:

My sister got married in a really tiny little church with an aisle about twenty feet in length. The church had a tiny organ to match. The organist asked my sister "What music would you like?" She said "Well, what can you play?" He replied that he only knew two pieces, so she said "Fine, I'll have one coming in and the other going out."

All went well on the day up until the moment when the bride reached the alter and was claimed by her husband-to-be. The organist kept on playing as the assembled parties waited helplessly for a break so that the service could begin. Eventually someone had to go up and tap him on the shoulder. It turned out he was pretty deaf, and couldn't tell when everybody was ready to begin.
