Great joke, but wouldn't it have to be D#m?
No. Actually the joke only works with the Eb, which is enharmonically D#. You see, C and D# make an augmented second, whereas C and Eb make a minor third, and the two intervals are distinctly different.
-
Is that an SM57 in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
-
whereas C and Eb make a minor third.
Or just a plain old minor since the deffinition of a minor is a minor third or flattened third.
edit: and as far as what I said before. I wasn't thinking of D# in relation to C, but as it's own scale. So in that case it would have to be D#m, but I should have gotten it because C and G have a fifth between them thing.

Rushed to hospital, he awakes from the anaesthetic to find the surgeon has done a marvellous job repairing his damaged member. As he dresses to go home the surgeon wanders over and hands him a business card.
'This is my brother's card. I'll make an appointment for you to see him.'

Actually, if you're talking scales, you need a flattened 3rd, 6th and 7th. Next person to mention melodic and harmonic minors gets a slap.
The flautist joke is cool.
