"Trumpets!!! Get your mouthpieces out of your a** and play"
or how about this
"Hunter! scream Start looking at your music instead of Joe's a**!"
On a bus trip
"Trumbones!! stressed Put the Play Boy up and stop using your slide grease!"
"Amber, stop flirting! AMBER PUT HIS PANTS BACK ON!!!!"
*Pulls Amber off to the side* "You are no longer allowed to have your head bellow the seat"
God I could go on for ever.

My band director pronounced my last name wrong, so I corrected him. He said "You're a Bassoon player, I'll call you what I want."
That also leads into my Music Theory class. My teacher (also one of the BDs) kept saying "The bassoonist says it could be a minor 4th" or whatever else I said about the piece we were looking at.

So i was playing a solo in a broadway medley we were doing. it's "Let Me Entertain You" from the show Gypsy. It's basically a stripper song ^__^
"That's not good enough, Nicole! (that's me) Play it even more dirty! Make it loud and raunchy!"
mr bean was getting a little bit excited -__-* he never talks to any of us really so i got a kick out of it. plus i got to bend notes and growl into my sax, so it's all good ;P

My band teacher made us play one note and then sing the next. EVERYBODY in the class did really bad at sing the note.

My teacher hasn't really said anything funny, but he has been given some interesting gifts. 1) our concert band gave him a flaming baton, 2) our symphonic band gave him a bucket of wet spounges (he always threatens to throw wet spounges at us when we don't play.) and 3) our gift to our student teacher was..... the seniors in band saran wrapped her car (yes all of it, all of the outside was saran wrapped)

Funny things my band director has said or done...
He walked behind the flute section since he was helping the trombones and was then directing for the whole band. He noticed one flute using improper posture and called her by the name on her pants. Then he went into a 10 minute long talk about how girls could sell adverisements on their pants.
Most of the time he gets too into the music and ends up throwing the baton at our oboe section. Each time it hits the 1st chair oboeist.
Yelling at one of the kids from the trumpet section to stop flirting with a clarinet player and then telling them both to go to the library for talking. Sending them both with the same punishment. Interesting desicion.
He said to us during festival season that he was not our friend. That he wasn't a PS2. If we wanted to play we could quit now. Never mind it would mess up all the music.
I can think of more, but since our school year just ended it might be a while on him.
The assistant director told everyone to stop copying her jokes, because then she can't be funny.
The Symphony director is entirely psychotic and you would think he never gets presents. You give him a present and he hugs you. Other then that only the string players know how to decode where he wishes you to begin to play.
The chorus director just has serious problems when you try to quit and will threaten you.
Think, all this was in one year and I know there is more.

*a group of bandies sitting in the corner near the school library*
*BD walks into library, walks out, walks over to group.*
Bandie: "Mornin'"
BD: "Hey."
*. . . . .*
Other bandie: "Well... This is awkward."
BD: "Whaaaat? I like hanging out with you band kids."
You probably had to be there to get the funny.

This is the first time I've come here, but:
Director: "Trumpets, you must play lighter and fluffier."
*apparently not fluffy enough attempt*
Director: "Trumpets, you must play even lighter and fluffier. Imagine yourself as whipped cream or jelly in a jelly doughnut."
*confused looks about and yet another un-fluffy attempt*
Director: "Trumpets even more so! You are the whipped cream police, and you must restore order to the land of French pastries!"
*Wanh-wop*

So, I'm carrying a cymbal on a stand (I'm a percussionist), and, because all school instruments suck, it doesn't have the thing on top that holds it on. So, of course, it falls off, and while everyone's playing. So they laugh into their instruments (which, by the way, sounds really funny), and the director says "you know, greg, that's what makes band directors cymbal minded." And then, of course, Jack (the other percussionist) says "that's not the right way to do a drum roll"
