ffuturesAccording to Gary Larsen's cartoon they give you a harp in Heaven and an accordion in Hell.
Assuming no knowledge of playing either instrument, and a VERY large number of people playing one in each venue, which is going to sound worse?
Update - unanimous agreement that the accordions would sound much worse because even a poorly played harp can sound OK as background noise. Thanks to all that commented.
