my band director usually swings his baton around A LOT and most of the time he looses his grip and it flies off somewhere either hitting someone or causing us all to stop playing and laugh
my friend and i were really bored at this one concert (we had to wait for like 2 hours listening to these other skools) and we took our trumpets and put the bells together and used them like walkie talkies..(it does work too) ^_^ sweatdrop

Hmm...my friend's saxaphone and my clarinet mated and had babies during band class. I wanted to draw little "golden clarinets" (I can't remember what they are called xp ) and drop them all over the floor...but I chickened out. sweatdrop

we would be at band practice and we would "shoot" other people with our clarinets, the mouthpiece and ligature is the trigger, or it would be a bozooka depending on the person, I used to be in gaurd, so I can spin my plastic (although not very high) clarinet. We also the the barrel and mouthpiece for soundmakers at pep rally's, its easier than screaming and more amusing than doing nothing.

I shall tell you the one thing I've actually seen happen.
All right in Pep band a Barry Sax player was mimicking how another Barry sax player had no clue how to work a Barry Sax. So making fun of their stupidity the Barry Sax player dropped the neck on the Barry Sax INSIDE the Barry Saxophone. Thus it get stuck! Man how stupid can you get?
Lesson: NEVER demonstrate someone else's stupidity because it may cause you to look even stupider!

Well, my band director found something in one of the euphoniums and couldn't get it out. We started warming up, and he was tapping a wooden hammer on the spot. Turns out someone stuck the following mix:
Play-doh
silly putty
lint
a tampon
into the euphonium. I was cracking up so hard.
This really isn't silly, but once we were playing a song called "The Big Rock" and my band director tried to play an extremely high part on the trumpet..I cracked up the moment he started playing it. His cheeks were all red and he had farted halfway through it. =P

i was in band today and our first chair clarinet was bored. he has an E flat clarinet, too. so he decides to take the mouth piece off of the E flat clarinet and put it in the bottom of his other clarinet. he had the second chair clarinet hold the two together and move the keys while he played. it was quite entertaining.

okay so funny story.... so that is time in pep band, at a basketball game, our team wasn't scoring at all and the band was very bored, as was I. So I look down and notice that my Bari sax bell is about the same thickness as the top of my arm...so I stick my arm down into it and it goes all the way to the bottom of the sax and curves a litlle, then right then our team scored so we had to play the school song well.....my arm was stuck! so yeah moral of the story get a better backetball team!

The bells of the baritones have been used as hiding places for the green bagels at the St. Patricks day parade. heart Our director announces every year NOT to do that but I think all she's doing is makingthem realize that it's been done and it's and easy way to get food domokun
We once found a trombone mute in a tuba. they had to take off the bell and stick their arm all the way down there.

Ha! I've done that many-a-time, my friend! But with football. For some reason, there is a rule in my area that we can only have a pep band for football... Weird...

I would say... me and my clarinet guy friend sword fighting/lightsaber fighting with the flute and clarient. xD
I also, when I learned how to play a high C, went around and blasted it in people's ears.
Then there's the band wars game we came up with where all insturments are weapons and fight one another and make alliances.
...I also hit my baritone friend upside the head with my old flute freshmen year.
...My sax friends, the clarinet friend, and myself play the 'who can play highest game' to piss the trumpets off. =D
