AoiNamida When we bring our instruments up to play, we yell "Eagles" Alot of the band has come up with other things to yell: Beagles Bagels Egrets (swamp bird sort of like a heron. We live in florida, so their common) Knights (mascot of our rival school) Our mascot's the Eagles as well. Many of the band yells "Seagulls", or "Emos!"

heh ^_^ if i was in competition band, then i have that feeling that at attention i woulda gotten like shot and had to do like 50 pushups, along with the teachers LONG rant about how "perfect he is" and how his "tubas play louder than we do" pshh in regular marching band i dont turn my head but i sure as heck talk. esp with the stupid ppl in the way when we march and they're like "who cares its the band" and then we're entering the field SOMEONE always has to yell all the time, along with that everyone talks. half the time i kinda lag my instrument lol

Don't scream death threats at the quad player.
Don't direct pelvic thrusts at your friend across the field.
Don't say 'and one!' to long/loud/in another language
Don't make a phone call to another person on the field. gonk
Don't call/text the person whose phone is now in posession of the band director.
Don't taunt the drum major, it's not his fault that he's a wimp.
Don't say you have to leave to help your realitives cross the border.
Or you'll have to be called to attention over... and over... and over...

Don't lapse into embarrassing band camp stories while the band instructor is breathing down your neck and you don't notice it
>.<;
Also, since I play flute, when you get called on break, DO NOT leave it on the ground. Especially when you're at band camp and there's a rabid golf cart on the loose

Things not to do while at attention..... well anything really. I've never gotten in trouble with moving at attention from my drum majors, they don't notice, or my Band director, i have piles of brownie points with him. I've never gotten caught by the instructors we have come in, that's because I impress them with my wonderful marching skills, and my vocals that I always get comments on...... so why aren't i drum major? i have no clue, take that up with my band director.
umm things not to do, freak out at a bee, that flew past you, make comments on the pretty butterfly that flew past you.....following the bee (or before the bee. XD) Swat at the bee that flew past you, itch the spot that the mosquito bit you the night before at the lake party. Talk about thursday's overnight. Apparently your not supposed to talk to the drum majors either. (but it was their fault) answer a question aimed at you by the band director, (I did that my freshman year, i didn't get into that much trouble though. I did answer correctly i said "Yes sir") Say 'Two' after everyone's said 'One' the senior sax players enjoy doing that. Say one after the student with the loud vocals said one in response to the drum major. (Ours really suck at being loud so everyone answers to me when they aren't paying attention.) Don't stretch, or yawn if you can help it don't sneeze or cough. talk to the football player coming off of the field who also plays tuba. (we also had one who played trombone, he graduated last year) Don't tap your foot impatiently because no one else can stand still at attention. don't b***h people out for their inability to stand still at attention, while your at attention. Don't continue an argument while at attention......with someone across the field.
wow there are a lot of things our band does at attention that we shouldn't. (apart from talk)

Ah. Don't make rude comments while the drum major's taking off his hoodie. (and for a drum major...NEVER take off a coat while on the podium. You get lots of rude comments, lol)
