The Grumpmeister You know you're a band geek if you pretend your instrument is a weapon: saxophone: bazooka clarinet: musket trumpet: any type of gun tuba: a weapon of mass destruction flute: a tazer trombone: a continuous trigger machine gun Hmm...I'd have to agree with you on those, except the tuba and flute.... tuba: Grenade launcher flute: sniper rifle twisted

I got a lot.....excuse me if some of these have already been said.
When everyone you're interested in is in band.
When you like wearing your uniform.
When people ask you about your social life and you say, "Oh, you mean my horn?"
When you consider your drill book a fashion accessory.
When you've had a "Trombone-ectomy."
When being mauled by a drum is a normal part of life.
When people worry when they see you without your instrument.
When you respond to "band nerd."
When someone says the word "attention" and you automatically put your head up.
When you remember the order of flats and sharps more easily than your name.
When you are alone, you suffocate cause there's no one telling you when to breathe.
When slides feel normal.
When you remember your instrument's birthday, and forget your mothers.
When you give your instrument a birthday party.
When making a diagonal is your biggest accomplishment of the day.
When you see your section more than you see your family.
When you accidentally call your band director "Dad."
When you CAN sight-read.
When you can put on your uniform in less than two minutes.
When reeds taste good.
When you think your plume is alive.
When you have a neck strap tan line.
When numbers past 8 aren't important.
When letters past G aren't important.

Heh, when you think your plume is alive, holy crap, that's funny. xd
(this has probably already been said...)
You know you're a band geek when you go nuts to get your old uniform when the band gets new ones so you can run around with your buddies in your neighborhood on Halloween and get a personal high off the whole experience.

you know you're a band geek when...
you designate part of your room just for instruments/music/etc.
you're excited about learning new drill
when you don't even think about the fact that you're changing with 30-something other people on the bus at a competition
can't think of any others

You know you're a band geek when people come up to you and say "this one time at band camp.." and when they don't actually have a story to tell you get all insulted and depressed.
you know you're a band geek when you walk backwards without thinking and you're director compliments you on you're backwards roll-step.
you know you're a band geek when you analyze the ability of a piccolo to become a blow dart shooter in great detail.
