Noxmad the Blind Warrior The drumline created a christmas version of the pep band song Crazy Train. Me: WE could call it crazy sleigh. Danny: Instead of a symbol we his the sleigh bells. Me: And insted of Ay Ay AY we would yell HO HO HO. Ryker: Then the trumpets could do that neighing thing with there horns. Brent: Yeah! Looool. I would love to hear this. Anyway, we were talking about ideas for next season's shows on facebook group chat... Quote: how about a Law Suit show where we infringe on all sorts of copyrights and we can make formations that infringe on trademarked logos it will be great Quote: we should have a hipster show with music no one has heard of because hipsters dont go to football ames games* too mainstream the formations would be so easy too first we'd make a plaid shirt and then some big sunglasses oh yeah then a can of PBR there's your copyright infringement Quote: the minimalist show would it just be glock? John Cage's 4'33" and like somewhere between movements some random guy will hup kneel or something

Me: Ben, do you know where the scores are for all the stand tunes? You organized the whole library last year, so you're more likely than Hartmetz to know...
Ben: Absolutely.
Me: Really? Where are they?
Ben: In one of the rooms of the 700 [band] hallway.
Me: ...remind me to kill you.
*next day*
Me: I still can't find the music.
Ben: And my fantastically detailed hints didn't help?
Me: ...

Me:"I wonder what would happen if i had a heart attack when are marching in a game." Autumn:"We would keep playing of course." Robert:"She's right we would step over you if you were in the way." Me:"So if i'm dying no one would do anything about it!" Autumn:"Of course we would come back to see if the instrument wasn't damaged while you spazzed around.Then-" Robert:"And only then after we had the instrument secure,would we then see if you you were ok."

Ty: What if I e-mailed you with an anomynous account?
Everyone: ...anomynous? rofl
Ty: ...ANOMY--ANOM...ANONYMOUS.
Andrew: I'm sorry, could you repeat it one more time? I didn't quite catch that.
Ty: SHUT UP. lol
Brandon: *playing a video game* My family name is Watermelonz.
Me: And you just bought an orchard?
Ty: THE WATERMELONZ JUST BOUGHT THE ORCHARD. LOL.
Briana: *walks by* ...do I want to know?
Brandon: Ty, I wish you were a woman so I would have an excuse to call you my b***h.
Me: But Ty's a woman on the inside.
Ty: *poses woman-ly* Oh, yeah.
Danny: I'm a woman on the OUTSIDE. 8D
Everyone: ...no, you're gender neutral. GET IT RIGHT.
Scott: No, three of the four gingers in the band have souls. Danny does not.
Me: That's because my section made him the freshman sacrifice to the band gods, sorry.
Scott: That explains why the gods didn't give us a superior.

This was after I read Puffer Fish's comment about the band god sacrifice. I had to bring it up in class haha.
BD: *is naming off who made it into wind symphony and who was stuck in concet band. Me, Brittany, Mckenzie and our only freshman, Jordan, made it in.*
Tim: I'm a senior. I should be in WS!
BD: I just needed to place people for now. We will all audition later.
Tim: But...
Mckenzie: Sorry Tim, but Jordaan is beast.
Tim: Maybe I'm more ebast then him....(he sucks)
Me: i know! We can sacrifice you btoh to the band gods and see who they choose!
Jordan: Too late.
Entire Section: o_o
Me: jordan, do I want to know.
Jordan: You already do.
Section: o_o
This is a more of funny things that my bandmates did, not said. This was alst year.Our director was out for the day, and so in concert band(i had both band classes) the only dm in that class, Caesar, was in charge. He had a twin brother, Victor, in the tuba section.
Caesar: Alright, lets play a-
Victor: *starts chatting with Marshall*
Caesar: -_- Pay attention victor.
Victor: Sorry.
Caesar: Alright, as I was saying, play at-
Victor: *starts playing quietly, just loud enough to enrage caesar*
Caesar: VICTOR! CUT IT OUT1
Victor: *ignores him*
Caesar(ticked. Nobody ever seen him this mad): -_-' thats it. Everyone, put your instruments away. We are done.
Everyone: o_o Victor, you are dead.
*next day. Caesar is there, Victor is not*
veryone: Um caesar, where is victor?
Caesar: I don't know.
BD; Hes your brother. your twin brother. You live in the same house, and you drive the same car. How do you not know where he is.
Caear: But i do.
BD: where is he? You just said you didnt know.
Caesar: Um...nowhere*looks suspicious*
Jake: Oh crap, I think he killed Victor.

Brandon (1st Trumpet) and Taylor (1st Baritone) used to always say,"ey gurl let me drink yo bathwater!" and,"GO YOU!" Then they, with the help of Buddy (tuba player), would sneak up on unsuspecting woodwind players and drag them into the instrament storage room and say "Shhhhh. . . . .just take it"
we have a very strange brass section xd

that "When I say ___ you say ___" thing reminded me
the cheerleaders at our school do a cheer "when we say 'Go' you say 'fight' and instead of saying fight the whole pep band would say home!

Megan: And there's the piano prodigy now!
Me: ... o.o what?
Natalie: You've been voluntold.
Me: ...ok.
====================
Alison: Okay, let me get this straight. We take the 1st chair sax who can't play drums and throw her on the drumset, and leave the flutist who can play drums up here. Awesome.

"Telling band kids to be quiet is like giving them crack."
This was as we were waiting outside for a surprise performance (hence why we had to be quiet), and amusing ourselves by marching around pretending to be the USC band, and then putting our heads inside one of the tubas as the tuba player held the tuba up to his butt. And everyone shaking silently with suppressed laughter. The best part was seeing a security guard staring with a "wtf" expression.
We're in college, btw.
@Puff/ClarinetGoddess: Oh, we have freshman sacrifices too! Except since we don't compete, the sacrifices are made to the football gods instead. This year's sacrifice: the genius who missed the 11am bus cause he thought it left at 11pm... rolleyes

A few of us packed into a car driving back into the city from a St. Patrick's day parade + an hour or two at a bar.
Rob: Holy God I have to piss pull over!
McSorley (driving): We cant pull over you idiot we're on a highway in New York.
Rob: So?
McSorley: Do you see any trees or bushes n s**t? No. There aren't even shoulders. If I stop, we get hit by a truck and we all die.
Me: I kind of need to pee too.
Rob: YEAH! Pull over.
Babino: No he's right if we pee we're all gonna die.
Rob: We'll die if we pee?
Sean: I pissed at the bar but I'm feeling round two is in order.
Rob: LOOK! An exit. Get off there.
McSorley: I don't-
Rob: DO IT NOW
McSorley: ******** it now I have to piss.
-he takes the exit and we continue for a few minutes-
McSorley: Where the hell are we? Did we even leave the freeway?
Me: Oh god.
McSorley: What?
Me: I'm pretty sure we're in JFK
Rob: What's that?
Me: It's a major airport you idiot.
Sean: Does the terminal have a bathroom?
Me: I don't know, there's seven terminals. Probably.
McSorley: We're doing it.
Babino: Is that cool? What if they think we're terrorists?
Rob: I've got it covered. If they start coming at us, we break out Marine Hymn and march out.
Me: Yeah, that'll probably work.
We proceed to almost crash into a car, and all of us run around in our kilts with our bagpipes making fools of ourselves looking for a bathroom.
Dont drink and drive, kids wink

Evidently, at the alto party this weekend, one kid was dancing with a girl and tried to get her to dip him. She said something about being afraid of dropping him, and his response was thus:
"I'm a gymnast, b***h! These quads can hold me up!"
He's hilarious, especially when he's super drunk. xD
