At our christmas concert this year one of our trombone players went mysteryously missing in the middle of the concert and then in the middle of a peice he came out in a santa suite, walked on stage and sat down and started playing as if he didn't do a thing.
Oh and then you have our directors anologies, ' I want this to sound as if an elephant had been dropped from a plane and had just landed on somebodies house.' and another one is ' i want this to seem like somebody is shooting flaming arrows at you and your running away.' to the last one a trumpet player threw a mess of waded up paper at him all saying 'learn proper anologies'.

Well we like to yell... of course.
We originally were going to play the p***s game at football games (where you yell p***s progressively louder and who ever yells it the loudest without getting caught wins.) but it always involved it being played with the BD in hearing range at pep rallies, which often resulted in a "p***s!" "Shut the ******** up!" combonation.
And we like to play really loud outside when people are still there so one time there were still some people outside and we were going inside from parade practice so I thought it would be a good idea to run and play Charge at fff. So I did, and I ran into a bush and almost hit other people but then I started over and finished it. It was awesome.
And on pep band songs where we yell a lot, I'll randomly scream words. So on Go, when all we say is Go 16 times, on the 5th and 13th and 16th ones regularly, I yell as loud as I can.
And on the Hey Song I yell as loud as possible. I can't wait until I'm drum major then I can yell without worrying about getting set.

During Pep, at the end of Tequila, I always scream something like "VODKA!!!!" like half a second after everyone yells "TEQUILA!!!"
at GHHS, We annually played frisbee during class whee
Our drummer at GHHS, Nick, would always yell "I LOVE YOU NUMBER ____!!!!" at a basketball game. The ________ represents whatever Number he felt like embarrasing. xd

I can't believe I forgot this...!
During my freshman year at GHHS, we were recording Pep Band Tracks for the cheerleaders, and our Band president (a senior and the "Czar of Drumming") would whisper really wierd things into the microphone right before we started playing.
Examples: "...cheese, I like cheese...."
(before tequila) "...tequila gives you the winds..."
And that same year, when we were in the pit for the musical, one of the props almost nailed our director, Mrs. Eccleston...! HAHAHAHA rofl

Once my friend in my section was on a pep band trip (I was there too) and it was 9 hours away from home. We loaded everything up and left at like 10 in the morning and they kept telling us, "Don't forget your stuff!" So we get there and my friend's just standing there with her eyes shut and I ask her what's wrong. She told me, "I left my saxaphone at home."
... She hid underneath the stands for the entire football game. xp
And this year that same friend is a drum major, and she asked me where this guy that stands next to me in the show went. I said "I don't know. Maybe he got eaten by YEAH TOAST!!!" (If you don't know what that is just forget about it)
Then when our BD was talking to us he made the mistake of saying duties, assets, and johnny on the spot all in one sitting. xd Yeah I'm immature.

When we're in big circles doing stretches and instead of streching, we play duck-duck-goose.
When doing arm circles while actually stretching, we use bra sizes to tell ppl when to get bigger/smaller. Or when Anthony moved his hips while doing arm circles two years ago and we still do it.
When the BD says the DM can hit the flutes/clarinets with his mace while practicing, as long as he stays away from the brass. xd

So many....so little space. rofl
One day during a winter percussion rehearsel, me and some others decided to got to subway. Me, melissa, Rodrick, and Brandon all rode in one car, while Erica, Matthew and one of the Vibes players rode in another car. When my group got back to Mel's car, Matthew was on the hood of Ericas car while she was driving it. Then when we start heading back, erica pulls in dront of us. Then matthew decides he was going to moon us. lol
Then Brandon says "Melissa, pull in front of them!" So when we pull into the parking lot, brandon moons matthew back. Then everyone inside is looking at us like we lost it when we came in luaghing rofl
One time Melissa saw Trey (sax player) walking by, so she yelled out "Trey, youve got a cute butt!' Then trey stroke a pose and said "Its not cute, Its saxy!" rofl
Gotta love band.. 3nodding

We were practicing for our marching competition and the flutes and clarinets grab a pair of flags close to the end of the movement. I grabbed my set of flags and started doing the routine behind me a clarinet player trips on his flags and falls down and doesn't get back up. The director was very upset that this clarinet guy wasn't trying to get up. He stops the band and screams at him to stop being a beach whale and get up. It may not seem funny but I guess you had to be there.

I had a spar with some of those colorguard swords during a free day. I lost to the trumpeter I was sparring with, because I suck with swords xD
But, that wasn't really funny, I suppose... I can't remember any really funny times in the class.
However... at a competition, they had airgrams... Me and the same trumpeter from the sword match sent one up... with one word. 'Souls!!' rofl
Inside joke, I'm afraid. Our band has a good number of gamers, so... yeah xd

we were on stage practicing (sp?) for the concert that night and we have foldable (sp) chairs because there just isnt room for normal ones and one guy that plays sax, it folded on him and he fell backwards (sax was fine, but was injured smile ) then the same thing happened to a 3 clarinet players, 1 baratone, 2 other saxes and a trumpet and as soon as we fixed the problem and finally started playing, my friend that i sit next to (were in the front beacuse we play flute) she knocked her stand over, which knocked over mine and the girl next to me. it was hilarious biggrin

C H A R G E R GOO CHARGERS C H S! R E G R A H C AHH CHARSARD! C H S! Well, I have quite a frew. I'm a freshman in my school's marching band, and I don't like things to be quiet and people to not be laughing, so, me and a few friends make sure funny stuff is always happening.
One time, today, during practice my friend Teri's knee was hurting because of the marching, so I belt as loud as I can "If I could Teri, I would totally use my ice-spewing powers to make your knee numb.". And it turned into I'm the consession stand for the marching band at the game tomorrow, complete with Ramen hair, Pepsi nose despenser, and an mouth for an ice despenser. Of course the junior I really like just had to be there. But it was great...
And then at Marching Band camp, we were quick stepping and practicing for on the field and I literally ran into the guy I liked. And he ended up hitting someone and it was dominos. Ahhh, good times. T O E G A M E , F L U T E S!
