-During about the beggining of the school year we had bronchitis [of course] going around my band. Which happened to be started by our assistant band director. I had the pleasure of catching it. lol Anyways, now everytime some coughs my director gives him this look of death and makes like he is going to throw his baton at them.
- We need more cowbell! [What band dosen't have this joke? ]
- "Clarinets.....I can't hear you on the field..." "Screw it! I wanna be a trumpet." [Actually one of our judges on our festival tape said he could hear the clarinets. We cheered for a good while. ]
- Children of the Pit [This was made after being in the dugeon of our schools pit for our spring musical. ]
- "Another chance to get better!" [What our director says to motivate us to practice our 15 min crazy marching show AGAIN ]
-"Please, let's keep our erections down you guys." [Our marching band uniforms have the zipper on the front and sometimes the zipper likes to poke out like a, yes you guessed it, ERECTION. I said that to some freshies this year, the look they gave me was truly priceless. ]

Each time we finish a concert, the whole section must designate a Bathroom song. This is the song in which the whole section stands up when we are about to practice it and goes to the bathroom.
One kid can make these really accurate animal noises so as the quarter goes on he decides where exactly in each song he will make each noise.
Ever since an asian girl spread the rumor she had friends in the Latin Kings, we deign her the Asian Kings.
Screaming Brucey and Brocky is acceptable.

xxIm_Amazingxx OOMG! if your a sxophone you'll get his right away. but if not...umm idk. but you know how F# is fingered. so when someone in the band room is playing F natural then he basically flicks them off. itt is HILLARIOUS. then all the saxophones whenever some one is talking about flicking someone off then they're like, "give'em the F#! Hah, when this happens in our band, she just shows us her index finger and says "Not this one, the other one... I don't wanna have to show you which one you're supposed to use." I ask for an example every time she says that, but she's never actually done it.

If you won't stand for our troops...."BRAD, HIT THIS NOTE!"
"I can't."
"Just do it."
"....holy s**t I can. biggrin "
And also.
We got a new piece of music that we needed to sing and I was looking through it and saw a D on a ledger line up above our staff (Bass Clef) and I'm looking a this. Me being a Bass I'm saying. "....holy s**t."
The director looks at me and says "Brad, no."
He's against swearing.
"Oh, sorry, my bad."
Then I went into falsetto and hit the note silently while saying "Holy s**t."
And he just shook his head at me like he usually does when I do anything sarcastic. biggrin
Me and my best friend Carrilyn just randomly started calling our director "Barnsey"
His name is Mr. Barns, so we called him "Barnsey" Just to spite him. :3
But she's an Alto and I'm a Bass so we can get away with it. XDDD ....then go stand in front of them.

My band has a inside joke. Every time we all get together, we all pretend we're going to kill Ryan, the jokester in our band. We also make fun of each other like any normal 'family'.

Well, first of all, my band director ordered some mauve (school color) bracelets that say "Band Geeks for Life", which we all love.
Also, the band director would say, push it in a tad or pull it out a tad. But apparently, there are different types of tads, so whenever he asked us to pull it in or push it out we would automatically ask, "A Flute tad or a Saxaphone tad???"
We also had Sex-my-phones. xd

We have a few.
1. Band theme song- I taught our incredibly small band how to play "Yellow Submarine" which we play everytime we enter the band room or at random times in a football game. Our band director hates that song and nearly goes insane from us playing it so much-which makes us play it even more.
2. Band version of the school song- the year our favorite band member graduated, he took our school song and changed the words to complete comedic nonsense. The first two lines were :I like to eat my chicken with a spoon/ so my tummy will have lots of room. After that we rewrite the school song every year but it always starts out with those two lines. Then we might sing our new song at a pep rally or a football game or anywhere really. The results are hilarious.
3. Initiation- If we get a new member in band, it is so wonderful that we have to celebrate. And the first thing we do? Initiate them of course. I grab the piccolo, the quads and bass drum get ready, and the trumpet plays her part too. Then we lure them into the band room and start playing the loudest notes that won't damage their ears for a few seconds.
We have more but I don't feel like listing them.

My friend in the Honors band is always telling me how half of the class is one big... Essay sort of thing. O.o The Director has an intro, body, conclusion, and an a review... Every time. O.o
We give our instruments different obvious names. Sexyphone. Sex-on-a-phone. The Hobo. The Homo. a** Clarinet. O.o Assoon. surprised
We have an inside joke for Tenor Saxes; the Alto is too small. The Bari is too big. D: The Tenor... It's just right. ;D
My band period has an inside joke for juggling. :3 It's all my fault. Haha. Something about playing our saxes in mexico for money. XP
Edit: The Blood of a beginner band student - My friend is the drum major at my school, and the day we took our pictures for band, she had to wear her uniform all day. During lunch, they had chicken nuggets, and those are the days my friend Stephanie gets load and loads of ketchup packets for no reason at all. My friends Uniform is white. Stephanie put ketchup on my friend's boots. :3 We were telling people it was the blood of a beginner band student.
Instruments of Sex - My friend, Gabii, and I got really perverted with band this year. Really obvious stuff, like we have to finger our instruments... and tounge it, too... You have to blow the instrument. If you finger it right, it makes the right sound. Tounging makes the sound stop then start quickly. ;O Blow... Just the right amount. And the band directors can do it best. :3
