Happy nipples!- Something to do with my drum major, Adam and the trumpets.
Pull a Laurie- when someone falls on the podium
IT'S GO TIME! -BD is a Seinfeld fan. Would say it whenever we're having a show.

Since we went to County Band, some of us (7th graders at the time) got to play songs with the 8th graders in their concert. So we were practicing with them. I'm a flute, my friend let's call her "grandma" is percussion.
Our band instructor stands up suddenly while we're playing a song and starts clapping going, "GOOD JOB GRANDMA! THAT WAS GREAT! YOU KICKED BUTT ON THAT PART!"
Yeah...So then like three eighth grade boys go, "whoop! whoop!" My friend is blusing like crazy...she's shy so she doesn't like attention being brought to her.
Well, by now all the eighth grade boys have started clapping and my band instructor goes, "CALM DOWN BOYS. YOU CAN GET HER NUMBER AFTER PRACTICE."
...and my friend turns bright red.

I FORGOT ONE!
The flutes were rocking (I'm a flute). Well, the saxes and clarinets, frankly, were really bad on this one song and the flutes were really good. The girl in the chair behind me goes, "They are gravel to us! We are MOUNTAINS!" And I burst out laughing. We even had hand motions. One of the poor clarinets was trying to figure out what the crap we were doing.

One of the poor clarinets was trying to figure out what the crap we were doing. flutes have some of the best jokes... anyway yeah ours are 1. Needs more cowbell (this one's pretty much every band in our district tho') 2. Put your hand down billy (billy's our barri sax player and he always has something to contribute to the lesson) 3.(this one is about me)My puppydog eyes... my band instructor Mr. Blaker stands on a soap box when he conducts us during class. when i mess up (being first chair flute with barely any sightreading capabilities) he wants to yell at me but he says he cant because of the way i look at him (the puppy dog eyes) i don't move my head up but i do move my eyes up to look at him (i sit right in front of him) so long story short whenever someone messes up a song our first chair trumpet says "just give him the 'ole robert puppydog eyes'. it works every time!

During marching band, my friend Vicki and I were singing to "Close the Door". We decided to make fun of the other marching band. We were singing and there's a part where you go "dan dun dan dun dan dun dan dun dun dun dun dun(stressing the second "n"). I was thinking of saying "you suck, you suck, you suck..." when that moment came and both of us said the same exact thing. My drum major turned around and almost fell out of his podium.

* "i've got rhythm," my director says and does a hilarious dance to make fun of the white people who dont have a beat in their body.
* "eat my butt out with a fork," my director sings into a rhythm of how the song is suppose to go
* "elvis," my director says when he farts xd
* the notes "F - A - G" when someone says something stupid, or at other bands!
* "Whoa" when someone says something that processes into something else nasty, or wrong.
and i cant think of anymore

Oh yeah! I just remembered the S.O.B chord! Mr. Jordan calls it that because they had a chord like that in one of his songs from back in the day. It has 4 chords that progressively pile onto one another. He said that they all agreed that it sounded like the music was saying: "Son of a b****!" xd

1.) There was this one band who always did shows similar to ones we'd done before, so whenever a plane flies over us at practice someone yells "It's C--------!"
2.) "The Game"
3.) Adam's shorts
Our marching instructor, Adam, used to wear shorts that were pretty short, and he used to get made fun of a lot.
4.) Kevin
Real name: Adam. Plays french horn. I think it's from "Home Alone."
5.) Old Potatoes
A couple of years ago we got 2 of our instructors to sing "Old Potatoes" from the podium.
6.) The Adam-Michael Skit
Adam and Michael, 2 instructors, used to do tis skit ever year at camp that really cracked people up, but its too hard to explain.
7.) Satan
When I was a freshman, on the first day of camp, Adam our instructor came up to the stretch block and my section leader said: "See that guy? He's Satan." That was his name.
8.)Beans
Real name: Scott. Plays alto sax. One morning at camp he came to the table with a plateful of bacon and nothing else. Thus, he was named after the Even Stevens character.
9.) LB
Also Scott. Stands for "Little b***h, " so named by his brother's section (trombones). We convinced the chaperones it meant "Little Brother."
10.) Michael
Our visual/colorguard instructor. He is gay, which is unique in our area, so he is the brunt of many jokes.
There are more, but I'm being kicked off the computer right now.

1. Azn invasion: 5 years ago when our bd first started their was one asian, a freshmen, last year we got roughly 20,000. Our bd was conviced ALL of them were named Abe and when ever we did this the "twinkie" screamed "THERE'S TOO MANY ASIANS!" or, "IT'S THE ASIAN INVASION"
2.The Twinkie or gaysian: Aaron is the one mentioned in the thing above and here is why we call him twinkie. He's chinese and is convinced he's white, see, yellow on the outside, white on the inside? Twinkie. As for gaysian, he started as one of us (clarinet) and became obsesed with colorguard, so gay asian, gaysian.
3. Did the old man die on the stump?: Our freshmen show was "The Giving Tree" and for anyone who read the book on the last page there is a picture of the old guy sitting on the stump and at the end of our show a big cloth banner with that pic came up and we all sat and wondered that question.
4. Cat Parts: Last year at some after school rehersal we found cat parts in the grass and just kinda stared and called it a hype. Then at the Etawanda show when we were warming up our section went off and found more cat parts. Everyone came over and called it "an omen".
5. Cat Parts Revenge: This year during band camp our band room was in two art class rooms due to construction and when Jorden (bd) went into the tuba/drum/crap room one of the school kittens was there. He went after the cat and the final score was Kitten 1 Jorden zilch. He was "mauled" in the face by the cat and got a stich and rabis shot...needless to say he was taunted the rest of band camp.
