Here's my band:
Flutes: A lot of them don't care. The other ones are really quiet, but don't practice either
Clarinets: Actually good for once this year. (For me, they've always been the worst) Most of them don't talk much.
Alto Saxes: All the really nice people, with a few annoying obnoxious ones thrown in.
Tenor Saxes: ... Don't really know, can't really see them where I sit.
Trumpets: Annoying, they think they're the best, yet don't care at the same time.
Trombones: There are a few really dedicated people, the rest of the section doesn't care, and everyone hates them.
Low stuff: They're kinda a random mix.
Percussion: They're all annoying this year. They're all grade 9, and like to smash things.

Haha, I'm a flute and we're usually yelling at the trumpets to shut up since you can't hear our section. Very true, though.

haha heres mine
Flutes: really quiet never talk, and always are the first to learn a new piece of music
Clarinets: really quiet. Only like 3 of the people in our section actually know the music. the rest just say they do, and get an easy A.
Alto Saxes: shes really nice, and caring. always the first person to learn the part.
Tenor Saxes: ANOYING AS HELL! enough said
Trumpets: think they are the best, but there tone blows
Trombones: only have one. He thinks hes funny, but really not.
Low stuff: we only have one "low stuff" and he never shows up to practice because he hates the tuba, and band all together.
Percussion: all of them are ok, but this one kid NEVER LISTENS!! when he tunes the drums he never listens to the BD, and does not know what heal, and toe is. (idk if thats just something my BD says or if thats actually what you say to tune the drum)

What kind of low brass are YOU talking a bout?
in our band, the low brass is usually the best section in both music and marching. if we're goofing off during sectionals, it's because we already have the music perfected and we want to save our chops for the rest of the rehearsal.
easier music? sometimes, but we usually have it as hard as any other section, albiet with fewer trills.
and "not dedicated?" NOT DEDICATED!?!?!
we live,eat, sleep and BREATHE band! it's the center of our world!
I can't believe you would say that! crying

baritones: most dangerous weapons of mass destruction of all time
trumpets: good god, they're annoying
clarinets: what an odd bunch indeed, quiet crazy psychopath's
flutes: wait we have a flute section. funny cuz I'VE NEVER HEARD THEM! and dont get me started on piccolo, you can hear them, but only because they're so out of tune their sound drills through your brain like a probing alien
saxes: ours are kinda cool, but are a little akward
trombones: second only to baritone
mello/french horn: french horns sound like dying cows and mellos arent much better. they are good people but i hate their instruments
tuba: he's a freaking GOD man

As far as our school band goes, it's kind of creepy how well those stereotypes fit so well. o.o

I think our flute section is the only one that actually talks during practice... Then again, there's only two of us XD
The rest pretty much fits, except the clarinets are all geniuses or annoying, or, in one case, both. The drum kids are ALWAYS dropping their sticks. Our BD finally told them that if they drop them again they get an F. He wouldn't hesitate to do it either -.-
