Well, you obviously dont speak Dutch, because he didnīt make an actuall joke... He told how embarrased he was one time in England when during a demo he called the Bassoon by its dutch name, which is a fagot..

So if you ever hear a dutchman talk about fagots, he is taking about Bassoons..

(the dutch word fagot is actualy derived from the ittalian word fagotto)
