Clue/Question:  After his successful audition, the drummer was – – –

English: tee shirt (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Answer:  UPBEAT

(So long as he was upbeat on the downbeat!  Today’s Jumble was just an excuse for Jeff Knurek to draw his favorite band!  And, it’s a great likeness!  There were no new clue words today, however all of the jumbles came up as new.  The jumble for “video” is in alphabetic order.  The answer letter layout was good, but you can only do so much to hide a one word 6-letter answer.  The cartoon is the thing though.  We’ve graduated from Jeff’s favorite band tee-shirt, to his actual favorite band.  Nice Tweedy and fine Nels.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
