FallenFairy321 ~Your conductor is like a father to you. Or mother... or older sister (in my case - my BD is only 8 years older than me xp ) ~When you start cheers during games ~When you have a new reed, you suck on it in the middle of a non-band class so that it's ready when you have band ~You get a CD just because it had a song you played in band on it ~You start a random conversation across the room with other band nerds about how the world revolves around band in a non-band related class... ~~...in the middle of a discussion about Abraham Lincoln and the reconstruction plan

These are kinda old, but here it goes:
You know your a band geek when:
You roll your feet heel-to-toe to stop from spilling somthing
You stay in step with someone walking in front of you
You try to direct every song you hear.
You try to play some of today's hit songs on your instrument (guilty!)
