For whatever perverted reason?  Do you hate banjo players?

 
That's why God created capos.  For me as a fiddler and mandolin player,
whenever I see a guitarist putting a capo on the 4th fret,
I know I'm in for trouble.
 
Why is it that female vocalists love to sing in B?

I don't sing or play in a group so keys are sort of a moot point. I do
play whistle and Irish flute so a lot of what I know is in D or G, or
mixolydian and ionian, I guess. I've got a couple of whistles in other
keys and a cheap Boehm flute if I want to get adventuresome.

For guitar I favor A, C, E, and G and the related minors. For banjo I
usually stick with the standard open G or sometimes G modal. I use A and E
mostly for blues stuff with a pentatonic scale.

I've got a capo around someplace but if you're not working with a singer
it isn't too useful.
