I'm the drum major of my high school's marching band, and I just did my first holiday parade on the fourth of july. This was my first time leading my band in public. My director told me to give the band a forward march command... I accidentally gave a halt command. I was so embarrassed to hear my band yell "Your mother is a goat, sir!" (Our version of the "As you were, sir). First time jitters had gotten the best of me.

We are a small band and normally don't have a "conductor" to lead us during a parade. However, i'm one of the drum majors this year and our piece for a patriotic parade had three parts/songs to it. Our instructor had me hold the number of fingers corresponding to song 1, 2 or 3. I was nervous and I made the band play 1 twice. Then, I was concentrating on when to put up my hand...i tripped on train tracks and almost dropped my piccolo.
