-When you get mad at your parents for not understanding how important band is for you
-When you love your nickname to be 'Band Nerd'
-When a new person comes to school and your other friends introduce you together and says, "Here's my best friend, the most band obsessed person I know."
-When you tease your mom that you're going to get her some things that say,"I'm a BAND MOM" for her birthday then realize you are serious.
-When you wish they came out with a video game for marching band, well, basically any kind of band.
-When almost all your friends are in band.
-When you practice on your little brother's snare drum and you're not even percussion.
-You bug your parents for music lessons.
-Your mom tells you that you need to not be so band obsessive and you snicker and roll your eyes.
-When you feel disappointed that this year's seniors are leaving since they are the best marching class to date.
-When you name and gender-ize your instruments. My flute is Missy and a chica and my oboe is a dude and Mr. Obie courtesy of my cousin.
-When you hear stories of your junior high and high school directors and only start to laugh so hard you cry.
-When your non-band friends look at you funny and you say, "Oh, sorry... Band moment." -_-'
-When you talk to your parents about High School Try-Outs and you're freaking out about the scales and your parents just glaze over.
-When your dad thinks your instructor/teacher guy (or chic) is hitting on you.

when you stay after school for hours just so you can make it to the pep band game, and you are only going just to blow your lungs out and make everyone within a 10 foot radius deaf for the rest of the night!

"-When your driving or riding in a car/bus, and you expect the cars to be in step(everytime i get in a carXD) -You are disapointed when you realize that a car cannot be in step, yet still expect them to be.(major guilt" That sounds like me! rofl
*When your only reason to get up in the morning and go to school is band. *Your BD is friends with your parents. *You don't walk. You march. *You don't run either. You jazz run. *You're closer to your instruments than your best friends. *You have a really bad injury and you're not able to march or play your instrument but you do it anyway. *You come up with "you know your a bank geek when..." jokes. *If you're in winterguard, you listen to a song and make-up routine to that song. *You join numerous band geek groups on facebook.
I'll come up with more later maybe.

You know you're a band nerd when you know a Metallica song is in 3/4 time.
I was playing guitar hero and I was counting the beats and it was in 3/4. Otherwise it would be wrong.

OMK they should make a game like that! Man, I had a really good one.... Crap. ._. Hmm.... You know you're a band nerd when... -- you get mad at college football games when they don't show the marching band -- you're favorite class of the school day is band practice -- you hate the days when you don't have after school jazz band practice (I'm a sax, so I love jazz...) SAXOPHONISTS..... WE'RE SAXY!!!!

When you're reading a list that says "You know the specific smell of a band concert" and you say out loud "I love the smell of band concerts!" then your cat looks at you funny and you tell it "Yes, I love the smell of band concerts."
When you can name every single person in band
You can say who's going to marching band in high school and who's not.
When you've done everything mentioned above.

-When you don't have your isntrument, you feel liek you are forgetting soemthing
-You panic because of the above, thinking you lsot it
-You are so used to having your isntrument that you forget it is in your hands or next to you.
-You panic because you forget your instrument is in your hands
-The taste of new reeds is better then the taste of icecream
-You can never have a life because you always have band rehearsal
-Your lifeis band rehearsals
-When band rehearsal is cancelled, you think you are supposed to be there
-You almost go to rehearsal even though it has been cancelled
-You think that you need to be at rehearsal when you don't have it
-You get upset when rehearsal is cancelled
Guilty. ogf all of them. I was supposed to have rehearsal at this moment, but it was cancelled because my bd's "daughter was sick"(There are a few unlikely rumors going around. it just seems like hsi daughter gets sick a lot) But at the moment I am all twitchy because I feel like I'm supposed to be somewhere, because my mind never registers when things get cancelledd. So, i'm sitting here hoping that he didn't change his mind about cancelling rehearsal.

My most priced family herloom si the wooden clarient I just got back from the shop that plays beautifully. i have 3 clarinets. After getting the clarient and reeds from a music store, I begged to go to a different music store to look around while my family was getting their eyes checked, but I didn't want to walk across the street and my dad wouldn't drive me. I begged them for a art kit to decorate a tote bag because it had a treble clef iron onin it. I bought a spool of ribbon because it had music notes on it. The onyl person to beat me on total isntrument count is the new girl, with a total of 4 carinets, while i only have 3...

heart When you hear a random song on the radio and try to play it on your instrument heart When you actually do your practice charts heart When band is the only subject you don't fall asleep in heart When you hear your friend attempt to sing a song and say "You're too sharp/flat."

You know you're a band nerd when.....
-You have nightmares about loosing the beat
-You have nightmares about playing wrong notes
-You have some of the the songs you're playing in band on your iPod
-You walk to the tempo of any song and think it's perfectly normal
-The band director is out of the room you play your instrument louder than anyone
-The band director is out of the room, the person who is going to collage to be a band director stands up in front of the class and make fun of the band director(good times)
-When you join a Band Nerd Guild
