Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well. It wasn't just me that got the embarrasing thing, it was our whole band...

Every year we go to this band competition for concert band. And we had prepared since January, when the competition, usually is in April. We were ready to go. Larson (Director) gave us this one piece of music that was almost completely trumpet based. And he mentioned aomething about it having to do with JFK I dunno. But we started playing at the comp and it was going good under the last quarter of the piece and the whole thing fell apart, literally. The one trumpet player that held us together, stopped to take a breath and the rest of us didn't know what to do. And then, seeing as the trumpets fell apart everyone else followed. Then, it came back together by the end. We managed to get a 3 somehow. But it was incredibly embarrasing, because we're such a small band and everyone makes fun of us anyway, that just made it better for them, I guess. =

This is my band's most embarrassing moment

We were marching down a road in a competition, we had two songs we played... Land of 1000 dances, and a classical marching song (forgot wat its called). But we were really good until like, just b4 we get to the judges. We were going to play land of 1000 dances. But suddenly, the trumpets started to play the marching song.... Then, we all just stopped playing (except some of the drums). We were all confused... So our drum major said continue to play the marching song... so we did. we got to the judges... and nothing we got like 5th place... we didnt even diserve 5th place. if our teacher saw that, we wouldve died that very second.

two years ago i was in band and i was feelin crumby in the tummy. I had just began to play this cool song and I um.................puked into my friends tuba that she set next to me. She still doesn't know who did it cause no one saw me.

my fisrt ever marching show. the front line started out in little 4 persion "diamands of love" in 8 steap ensrevans. well we march out on to the field from the side and we do a 4 count turn to the right but I turned to the left. ans not only that I passed out fron nerves xp

I'm not in marching band at the moment (Or...never have been. I don't think middle schools do marching. xD), so no trampling and falling over there. But back in 7th grade, a couple years ago, I was playing for a playing test. At home I could hit all the high notes PERFECTLY but when I got into the band room, I couldn't even get up to a high C on my flute. o_o; The BD just kept telling me to blow until I hit it and I never did...he made me keep going instead. xx;;

(I can't believe i'm telling this)

Well, when I was marching in the Junior Rose Festival parade, we were going past the television camera towards the end of the parade, so my feet were kind of shuffling. And I tripped over the street divider! Right in front of the camera. >.< redface

i can't remember if i posted here....oh well

a embarassing moment in band?

well after a seating test for some reason someone sat in my chair so I had to force myself it go to the third row and play...yeah it doesn't seem weird...but i had to stand...my band director was staring at me...I couldn't even play anymore! eversince that day i've learned to grab a chair as fast as you can in the band room! o_o

another embarassing moment was when I use to be in tenth chair last year in sixth grade, for some reason i was the only clarinetist in the second row with first part. So the girl next to me got confused once and said, "why are you playing first part? isn't it hard...it's all high notes" and i gave her a weird look but shrugged and sometimes she'd tell me not to play or play because she got so confused and i was embarassed when our band director asked the first clarinetist to play and i was the only one in the second row playing with the front....so glad i got third chair gonk I can't remember any other embarassing moments...except for my clarinet squeaking like hell in band once....
