Yet in the midst of all this ice and snow... These are all I can remember for now...I 'm sure I only know about half~ sweatdrop
But here they are:
"Do a barrel roll!" "Daggum!" (our director always says this~) "Music is always *going somewhere*" *=the name of our show last year "Too much booty in the pants dance" xD I probably missed all the good ones
...our hearts stay warm cause they are full of hope.

we have a whole bunch, but I if I say them all, that would be too much, but here's a few. xd 1. Mr. P: Once you satisfy Kendra, she'll go. Kendra's our drum major and our teacher, Mr. P was waiting for us to stop talking he said this and of course everyone started cracking up.
2. At Red Robin: We want more ranch! It's one of the low brass's traditions to go out to eat for breakfast or dinner and at Red Robin, they serve a lot of ranch there and we wanted more than there was, which was a lot.

One day in band, we were really bored because the director had to keep working out parts in the woodwinds (I play trumpet), so one of my friends passed me a note. Here's what it said:
"When you read this, say 'Oh my God', then pass it on."
And surprisingly, it made it's way all the way to the director. She opened it and said "Oh my God," and then threw it in a little bin beside her.
They tried again with one that said "I like it hot n' spicy," but that wasn't as successful.
:]

VASELINE! xd
Okay, so our BD had a couple students that do this little show at their church every year (it's a comedy thing). So, they act like they're on a commercial, and they're promoting Vaseline. So, they're like, "You know, I didn't get to take a shower yesterday, and I really smell..." "You know what would help with that?" "What?" "VASELINE!" and they slather it all over themselves. The last one they do in it is, "Gee, my breath really smells, I had too many onions." "You know what would help with that? *both at the same time* VAAAASELIIIIIINE!" and they take globs of it and shove it in their mouths.
When our BD told us that story, it instantly became something we say all the time now.

We have three different Lamontagne children in our band. Myself, my cousin and my other cousin. Our BD is constantly getting our names mixed up, so when he says our names correctly, somebody always yells out 'That's not Brittany, that's Emily!' or 'That's not Aaron, that's Brittany!'
Our grade school BD once lost control of his baton and it landed down the front of this girl's shirt. That poor clarinet looked at the baton stuck between her breasts and fainted. Now whenever we see the BD, we ask him if he still has the baton holder handy. The clarinet thinks it is hilarious now.
The practice where we accidently locked all of the percussionists along with their instruments in the basement, our highschool BD was so pissed off. But now, whenever the percussionists are slacking, he says he's gonna lock them up again if they don't behave. The freshmans are so confused at that, and we're all just laughing because they don't get it.
Whenever anybody sees myself and the bass trombonist together, they ask us where all the hotdogs are. And then the bass trombonist says that I've already eaten them. When we went to Fernie, I beat him out of a chili dog-eating contest by four franks and ten minutes. Those were good times biggrin

Our middle school conductor always gave us the most random times to be at a concert.. she would always tell us to be there at 7:37 or something like that. For our band trip, we were scheduled to leave at 5:02 AM. Now when I make plans to hang out with my band friends, we arrange to meet up at a random time.

Whenever we are learning a song, our band director normally gets a mental image to go with it. (mainly when the people come over from Elmhurst.)
In 2007, we were playing Farandole, Barnum and Bailey's Favourites, and Irish Tune From County Berry... or something like that.
Anyway, for these songs we had to image our band director (who's a male) : in tights, flying on the trapeze, and as a little boy Billy returning to home. The night of the performance, Professor Judy would hold up cards saying certain things. The funniest was "Picture him in tights!" Now it's pretty much a thing we do for Farandole...
Another thing is when we went to New Zealand to perform at Rhapsody Rotorua, our band director was chosen as a "chief" for a Maori demonstartion. Every time he would get up to speak after that, we always would call out "CHIEF CRAZY DAVE, OOH HA HA!" It's something we do every time.

emtpmpknhed "Oops, I forgot. I can't say crap." -Webb "*giving speech at the dome* Avon POWER! *gum flies out of mouth. A few moments pass. He picks the gum up off the ground and puts it back in his mouth. The whole band cheers*" -Webb "We're not stoppin' on the way home, so if you have to go to the bathroom... Tie it in a knot." -Webb "Ooooooh...." -band "But some of you don't have anything to tie!" -Webb I had him once! I can't remember if it was for band camp or honor band but he was awesome! Right. Our jokes? "Throw up, ****ville!" (um the stars mean my city's name, not an explicative) The directors used to yell either "Show up ****ville" or "Grow up ****ville" when we were getting distracted, but, out on the marching field, sometimes you can't quite hear them right...... "Well, if you're leaving fifteen minutes early and you normallly get out at 8:45 that means you're good 'til 9:20 and it's only 8:30 now, so you're okay..." Yeah. Glad he's a band director and not a math teacher........ "March straight! Stop waddling like pregnant peguins!"
