My high school band teacher was trying to get the band to do more accents, "You have to really surpise them, like- Like- If I was hiding in the closet then pop out and yell, 'I'm coming out of the closet!'" It took him a minute, then he turned bright red.

My BD's name is Mr. Peters. One day a clarinet was talking to him and was asking, "Is it Mr. Peter or Mr. Peters?" so my BD replies, "Plural, but I'm singular." WTF!!!! THAT IS THE CHEEZIEST PICK UP LINE I HAVE EVER HEARD AND CONSIDERING THAT SHE WAS 7TH GRADE AND THE BD IS THIRTY THAT'S JUST CREEPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hartmetz: You know why British comedies are so funny?
Tucker: Because of the accents?
Hartmetz: ...no. 'Cause they always understate everything.
Everyone: ...um...what.
Hartmetz: Like in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe, the world blows up and the guy's just like 'Oh that's a shame.'
Nerdy kids: It's 'Galaxy', H.
Hartmetz: Whatever. We have to play this song understated. Right now we're too...
Me: American?
Hartmetz: ...no...>>;

My band directors say crazy things like
"don't be the fly in the cream" and "don't sit there like a 'shroom on a log and desire to be more than a fungus"
neutral question neutral question rofl

A classic line from my BD is "No more crack for you." But we've had a few moments...

Well, My teacher's name is Mr. Brewer and he is sooo funny.
Whenever you bring him band money in cash he yells "BONUS!" It's so funny! And he has a really funny was of conducting. Like if we're doing really well and he likes the song, he'll stand up and get all jumpy. He does the same thing at concerts and the adjudicators always laugh at him.

Since our trombones couldn't play the part, Ms. Buechele was calling out the notes.
She called out the last note and then pointed at the saxophones, giving them their cue, and that went a little something like this:
"...F, you!" xd

Well, my freshmen year, we had alot of angles in the routine. And our BD can't pronounce his 'g's. So, when he'd yell, it'd come out, "GET IN YOUR AN'LES RGHT NOW! I DON'T WANT NONE OF THAT LAZY CRAP!"

So my band director, Tad, is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and he is one of the two best band directors I've ever had. He also can be quite amusing at times. It's college band, so he treats us like we're professionals, which I love, but he wants to have a good time and he wants us to have a good time. Well, we were in rehersal, I think it was around mid-April, playing a song with a lot of trumpet, it was either Prelude and Rondo by Holsinger or Beyond by a japanese composer whose name I can't remember right now. They trumpets messed up either a rhythm or a harmony, can't remember which. Keep in mind this is two or three weeks before our concert and we only practice two days a week. Tad just puts his arms down, everyone stops, he's looking down at his score and just goes, "Trumpets. Oh no you didn't." rofl It was the funniest thing and half the band started laughing.

Another was when This girl was wearing a shirt that said "if you like it put a ring on it." They talked about it and somehow he got in this ghetto, gangster conversation thing So he went all ghetto and talked like he was in the hood. Now everytime she wears that shirt or says something about it he talks like that. IT's really funny cause everybody already thinks he's gay so he sounds like a gay gangster. It's really freaky and hilarious. Now the girl that wore the shirt got the nickname Beyonce. And since we have 12 people in our band class we all were able to be around and hear what happened instead of passing it on....That was an interesting day....

well over the course of three years i have had four band directors.... there has been some really weird stuff said.
band director 1 (who is going to be my new band director (again) as i move into high school) once said (hes a french horn) to the french horns a little story "god, is that what you really played horns. i mean come on" *sits back* "that sounded like something ive heard before. you see everymorning as im leaving the house i turn animal planet on for charlie(his awesometastic doggy) and that sounds like the one day i came home and they had mating walruses on there!"
o.o... i was seriously abot to fall out of my chair
band director2 who was basically a sub director. he had a thick country accent and as a clarient is siting down he looks at her and says "there is crayap on your instra- ment"
third director who is and will always be Mr. T
hes second day there, kasey asks "do you pity the fool?" Mr.T looks at him and says " I PITTY THE FOOL!!!" (he looked like he was right out oof rocky)
He would theme everyday and every tuesday was T-Rex tuesday. he ran around the room acting like a T-Rex it was fricken hilarious
band director 4 my last name is moss and he called me mossolicious. o.o a wee bit creppy but also funny. he even wrote it on my graduation shirt...
these were possibly the funnest band directors and if i were to catolog everything they said or did that was funny itd take up pages and pages...
