Mr.Tapia:"What did i say about eating in the band hall!" Me:"It's not allowed." Mr.Tapia:"Yes and no because you can eat outside in the hallway." Me:"So what if i dirty the hallway?" Mr.Tapia:"You can make that hallway look like a tornado broke in as long as you don't dirty the band hall." Me:"So what if i-" Mr.Tapia:"No you can't cause if you do i'll tie your neck from the ceiling and let the 1st band throw food at you." Me:"I won't ever do it again..."

Note: I am a 5'2" female, my director is 6'6".
Mr. Hartmetz: STEVEN. GET OVER HERE AND MARCH NEXT TO KARA.
Steven: *runs from other side of field, looks very silly and obviously doing it on purpose*
Mr. Hartmetz: ...I haven't ever seen a more ridiculous run in my LIFE, Steven!
Me: Have you seen yourself run, H?
Everyone: Ooohhh.
Mr. Hartmetz: You wanna race, *my last name*? With those short stubby legs?
Everyone: Ohhh, burn.
Me: Bring it, old man.
Everyone: LOL.
Thankfully his sense of humor is the same as my dad's and that was all in jest...I'd hate to be written up in my senior year, of all times. xD

The trombone section was playing too behind the beat, so our BD stops rehearsal and says: "You guys are like a bunch of emperor penguins at the edge of a cliff. And all of you are saying 'Nu-uh. I'm not going first, you go first.' And all of you should be jumping first...and only one of you will die."
Our BD was gonna show the study hall class some youtube videos on his iPhone and in order to get the classes attention (The class is about 8 or nine girls) he yells "Come girls. Gather round the picture screen."
We were playing too high before warming up and out BD says: "You can't just pick your horn up and blast it! It's like getting punched in the face!"
Me and a friend were hand hugging in class and our BD says "No hand hugs!" Later, I'm trying to steal his pretzel and he starts hitting me and our BD sees and yells "See? This is why we can't have hand hugs! Cause it turns into hand violence!"
We were playing with bad tone and not using our heads and our BD got mad at us and was trying to explain why so he says "It's like you already know all this! Like I'm telling you something you already know! It's like if I were to say 'Red is red. It is the red color'"
Also, our BD has a tendency to yell "Shenanigans!", "The Goggles do nothing!", "Up-and-at-them" and "Eff the day..." He's pretty hilarious.

-------------------------------------------------
-While talking about music-
Mr.Stevens(BD): I wanna see s**t-
Everyone: *Laughs*
[He meant to say spit, for the brass section.]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Trombone Section - For Row Decs, one of the freshmen got toy babies for all of us and my section head, the director's son, messed it up, with using other stuff from Row Decs. So the baby had like fingers sticking out of it's head and had facial hair drawn on it.
So one day Mr. Stevens brings it outside and goes up on the lift-up. And while everyone was listening to him talk, the baby falls off the lift-off and another trombone goes:
"That's my baby!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talking about part of our show, where one person steps off and joins to another person and so on:
Mr. Stevens: Pretend that you're legos and connect your lego to someone elses.
Everyone: (Hilariously giggling and laughing)
Mr. Stevens: What I say?

This has to do with one of our songs:
BD: People who play the melody stand
...
BD: Now you see, it's those two against the whole band and they aren't very loud. So, you two blow while we back off a bit.
Everyone: Laughs
He doesn't know his own humor

Hartmetz: *phone rings*
Everyone: Where the heck is that random band music coming from?
Hartmetz: *answers phone* Yes?
Everyone: ...lmao.
Then our drum major had to leave so our assistant had to take her place.
Alvis: *conducting, band does something fail*
Hartmetz: STOP. Wow, short AND ugly.
Fellow Pit Member: Did you mean the band or Alvis?
Me: Probably both?
Alvis: HEY. ;_;

One day we were headed outside (into the rain yet again) and the BD was making the announcment for the schedual for the day but you could hardly hear over the din the colorgaurd was making.
"Ok, everyone, we're gonna get wet today so everyone grab your... GIRLS!"
That's the last time she interupted herself to yell at the CG every again. It took like 10 minutes to get everyone to stop grabbing each other and another 5 to get everyone to quit giggling.

Last week we were out on the field, rehearsing a song where the clarinets had a long rest, so some of us were doing a little hoppy dance, nothing too extreme.
We do stuff like this all the time so we were surprised by our BD's reaction...He stops the rehearsal short, gets down off the ladder, points to the clarinets and yells "WHAT THE F--- ARE YOU A--HOLES DOING?! STOP DANCING ON THE F---ING FIELD!!"
I know it sounds shocking, but it was pretty funny and we've been making fun of him for it ever since. I think the rain makes our BD crazy. rolleyes

H: *drags a giant box out of the band room*
Me: o_o
H: You want this? You could add a new room to your house and sleep in it.
Me: ...no thanks---HEY. ENOUGH WITH THE SHORT JOKES.
---
Skyelar (tuba section leader): NEW TUBAS!!!!! CAN I PLAY ONE CAN I CAN I CANI---
H: No. We're going to keep them unplayed and un-fingerprinted and UNDENTED forever so we can show off how nice they are.
Skyelar: I'm so glad that's your sarcasm voice. *runs away to get her mouthpiece*
Brooks (new to band, typically clueless in general): *didn't hear Skyelar* Really? That...seems like a waste of space.
H: You're a waste of space.
Everyone: HARTMETZ DON'T BE SARCASTIC TO BROOKS HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND SARCASM ;_;
