Is this the downbeat part of the show?

I think this is probably the Downbeats part of the show.

gimme a downbeat, maestro!

Oh. I was wrong; it's the Downbeats, not the Downbeats.

How long can we stay downbeat? And was that Hank Ballard singing lead on the first Downbeats?

JOE FROM DC:

Now these are some Downbeats! Did any of them appear on Upbeat?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:27pm
McGroovey:

I'm guessing he's going to play the Downbeats, not the Downbeats, next.

Did any of the many Downbeats cover ‘Murder Most Foul’?

Playing the Downbeats is one thing, and there's nothing wrong with the Downbeats, but I'll be danged before I sit here and listen to the Downbeats!

Maybe there is just one good funny joke, and we've all just been laughing along politely with all the other jokes?
