Mr Shingai (Conductor) Told one of use to conduct once. Quoc (Our Baritone player who looks alot like Russel from Up the movie) went up and conducted while we were playing Louie Louie. Instead of keeping a straight face and moving one arm, He starts headbanging and dancing like he is jamming to his fav song. xD

The three people with nicknames are inside jokes in themselves.
Boots cause... He's pretty much self explanatory
Fluffy cause of his random outburst at a pep band game a couple years back
Snickers... Well... That's a bit more confusing neutral

My band director, Mr. Ogren, put a limb in the ceiling of the instrument closet. It had a note that said,
"I didn't practice all summer, it's optional, right?
Kiss, Kiss, Hug, Hug,
Little Brittany"
And then there was fake blood dripping down, and the whole band thought it was real for about a week... Then he put more in the tuba case, the piano, and in his ceiling.
Then, there's
"Da SQUAREZ!"
Mr. Ogren's endless "Twilight" jokes
"DO NOT ERASE THE STRAWBERRY"
"There's nothing dumber than a drummer!" which leads to
"There's nothing drummer than a dumber. Wait... what?"
"Felipé! No!"
and of course the Lollipop Guild...
We will all dearly miss our dearly departed (not dying, retiring) Mr. Ogren.

The band director got this mole removed, and for some reason the assistant band director had us go, "Set! Up! Mole!" instead of "Set! Up! Play!"
D:
Also, during my freshman year, the assistant band director was making this "epic" speech about how the freshmen think they know everything, but they only have two little horns, and go, "Nyih! Nyih!" And then the sophomores--they know a little more, apparently--have four horns. Juniors have six, and seniors have eight. But then when the "annoying little freshmen" (as he put it, I think) would "butt heads" with the band directors, he said something like, "But then we--the band directors--are like the big deer standing on the hill in Bambi! We will pick you up with our huge racks and slam you into the ground!"
It's not really a band inside joke (that I know of), but my friends and I joke about it a lot, like with the banana being chased through the band room by two or three gorillas (but that's a whoooole other story). It's also probably one of those "you had to be there" moments.

-eternal phantom- 1. Number 19 in the Treasury of Scales Book I think my band uses that book! So, we had this new woodwind teacher at camp, and there's this joke that when she does it, she yells out random musical terms. (i.e. "quarter note" "half note" "FERMATA")
