No Tee Heeing in the Band Closet.
So we have a closet where all the instruments are stored, and girls would offen gather inside of it and start to laugh, giggle, "tee hee", etc. So now there is a sign on the door of the closet saying no "tee heeing" in the band closet.

Basically a girl in the band was doing some things with a guy on the band bus, after dark. So she said,"I can take three..." So people were holding up three fingers to her and her friends...her friends happened to be gothic, trying not to offfend anyone here, but happens three fingers held up is a death sign from the Necromonicon (Sp?), so the Gothic people knew what it was and got really mad, so know that's a running joke.

One day our jazz band went to a jazz festival type of thing, and this guy talked to us and said that the trumpets were "squeezing the cat" because they were going "mwaaaaah" on some longer notes...
Now every time someone does that in wind ensemble and the band director says, "Don't go 'mwaaah' on those notes!" The jazz band people say "don't squeeze the cat!"

GUARD YOUR SANDWICHES!!! - We had a bassonist last year who everday found that her lunch had been pulled out of her locker with her sandwich stolen. It took I think 3 months to find the culpret.
Raise the el-sucko flag! - If we ever played badly while Mr. Peters conducted during class, he'd make the motion of raising a flag, the el sucko flag. Last year the seniors actually made a flag with a flag pole to raise the el sucko flag.
DANGER DANGER I'VE LOST MY KEYS! - Mr. Slepak, another one of our directors, came whirling out of the band room frantcally swirling his arms over his head screamin Danger Danger I've lost my keys!" He didn't think anyone was around, unfortuenently the color guard had just come back from a competition and witnesseed the entire thing.
There's too many to list XD

Staples.
Once we were being handed packets that were stapled together. The trumpet section leader exclaims:
DAMNIT! Why is everything stapled?!
Like 10 seconds later:
Staples is like BEST STORE EVER!

Let's see...
Birthday Poncho- It was our BD's..BDay, and so one girl had an idea to make her a poncho- out of those big rolls of paper schools usually have. Everyone we could find from the music department signed it, and we made her wear it the entire class.
Later, she said someting to the effect of, "You know, the best birthday gift would be a good band rehearsal..."
And a percussionist chimed in, "Yeah, well, we couldn't get that, so we got you the poncho instead."
Band Discussion Time- Our BD has a hard time controlling us, and she likes to try to 'discuss' problems. Like, she wanted us to be ready at 1:54, and we wanted to be ready at 1:55 (which gave us about 5? minutes to get ready). We started the discussion at 2 (which she was mad about), and didn't stop arguing about it until 2:25. Seriously. Other common topics include band tees, going to the bathroom during rehearsals, wearing our horrendous band uniforms, pep band, whiteboard markers, batons, etc.
BS Bach- We were told for our semester project one year that each group got a song that they had to make a powerpoint or poster or something. One group fabricated a story about BS Bach. I couldn't remember what it all contained, but a senior kept the sheet they wrote it on and it is one of our ideas for the back of a t-shirt.
clap clap clap clap "Band! Attention!" - A normal marching band call to attention... We're supposed to yell out our school mascot... but over half the band has decided to yell "WOLVES!" or whatever mascot the band closest to us is.
We've got a lot more, too. heart

1. "BAND IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
2. "Is that a cruise ship or did the saxes screw up again?"
3. "The world is ending, our director isn't being a b***h"
4. "I swapped my trombone for a chainsaw, Mrs. Mayer won't see it comming." "untill you have to play a test" "shut up drum humper"
5. "I have some advice for you guys, TRY NOT TO SUCK!"

Don't run or you'll get shot!!!
Last X-Mas our band director (a crazy old black guy from Mississippi) was getting mad at us for rushing so he said, "Don't rush! It's Christmas time! When you go to the mall, you don't see people runnin' around, cuz if they runnin', they gonna get shot!!!" xd
We also say that 2 years in wind ensemble (the band he crazy old guy directs) should count as 2 years of foreign language, because you can never understand a single thing he says!!!
And this is more of a funny story but, 80% of our drumline got locked in the drum room right before our last game! It took about an hour and 2 janitors to get them out. They had to unscrew the door becuase the HANDLE FELL OFF!! xd xd

Well it's more like a trick we play on all the new marching band members, we always tell them to go get the tuba plumes but they wear black berets so the freshman are always scrambling around for like twenty minutes.
Umm my friend Michael who plays first tuba once put a girl in the bell of his horn just to prove he could. So he'd walk around with her in there saying he had a Reemba. Her name was Careem but everyone just called her Reem.
Another thing is we have this fire alarm type thing in our band building which constantly malfunctions. And when it does, it sounds like a sax playing a double octave G. If you play sax then you probably know what I'm talking about.. Anywho, the girl beside me in band finally figured out how to play that note so she would constantly play it to death, not to mention out of tune. *cringes* So when ever she did my BD would tell her "Sarah I swear to god if you don't quit killing the fire alarm I'm going to get Michael to stuff you in his tuba."

The basketball court we would practice on for winterguard last year was right next to the port-o-potties. Anyways, one day during practice they were stinking up our court and since the company's name was on each one (Spankey), we started referring to the bathroom and port-o-potties as the spankey. So now my teammates will either say, "I need to use the spankey" or my instructor will say, "ok who needs a spankey break" or who needs to go to the spankey"
