He started singing Money Maker over the loud speaker during a practice on the football game. It was so freaking hilarious!

Today, Nico was out, and Ms. Naumann was like, "Ok, who has timpani part?" Dan was like, "Nico." Ms. Naumann said, "Oh, great. The timpanis play Nico? Wait...I mean Nico plays the timpanis?" Then when she messed up conducting, she said "CRAP! Ok, my bad, my bad.." That sounds like somethign we'd say!

My BD was telling us that he wanted us to wear our band t-shirts at the upcoming pep assembly and one of the drummers said that his sports coach wanted them to wear their jerseys and which one he should wear, the jersey or the band shirt.
My BD's reply "Can you wear the jersey over the shirt? then you could be like 'mild-mannered athlete by day BAND MEMBER BY NIGHT!' Then you say 'my work is done here' and dissapear in a cloud of smoke."
It was halarious, because his acted it out as he said it.

Being that I'm in guard I didn't hear this myself but it became a huge joke in no time around the whole band because Mr. Coyle was directing symphonic band when he said to a newer player on the chimes, "Pip, you can't get just stick it in wiggle it around and expect something to come out."
He didn't even realize what he'd said to the poor boy haha. IT was hysterical I hear though.

"Look, don't laugh! None of YOU play trombone! Yeah, they messed up but in a band this small, we are VERY FORTUNATE to have two... two trombones... to have two people who play trombone!"

This isn't hilarious but it sure made me laugh! Anyways, so a few weeks ago I went to the seventh grade band class, and I was sitting in my band directors office and Mr. Wells, the assistant band director was in there with me, well Mrs. Hopper, the other band director's wife who is very pregnant, she was about 8 months pregnant at the time, walked in and Mr. Wells looked at her and was like, "Oh my god! Are you pregnant?!" It was funny to me because I am not sure if he was kidding or not! So for the rest of the year me and about 20 other people walked up to him and were like, "Oh my god mr. wells, are you pregnant?"

Oh oh, very corny joke. My assistant band director was talking to my friend Kelsey and they were in the drum room practicing. It was her 1st time playing the mallets and she was dragging. Then he said play it faster, and she rushed through the whole warm up. He looked at her and said, "Kelsey, you are not suposed to be a dragon or a russian so play the warm up correctly will ya?" It was funny to me. He is the kind of person that laughs at his own jokes so that made it twice as funny.

But seriously, you can't see some of mine without their expressions..
This isn't so much what Ms. Naumann said, but more or less what happened.
Ok, so the drumset player, J.R., was supposed to do a solo, and he screwed up.
J.R.:"Oh, crap. I screwed up."
Kyle: "IMPROV!"
So J.R. did this super fast Sting-type thing, and lost grip of his stick. It went flying, and nearly hit the clarinets! Actually, had Ian been in his seat, he would have had head injuries...
Ms. Naumann was like: surprised biggrin all in one. It still hit Ian though, but his foot and not his head. Allison was mad because it came like an inch from her head.
*Note to Ms. Naumann: Do not give J.R. drum solos with improv...*

Our director this year refered to a group of sets as the "flat spilt grind swish swish grind" without knowing how perverted it really sounded. The really funny thing is that he never figured out it sounded wrong. The clarinet section made up there own dirty dance for it too. xd

Yes, well, today in Resourse, I was fixing my *evil* snare drum part, and Ms. Naumann said, "Oh, yeah, he was fine today; he lost his voice so he was a little quieter." 'He' being a 6th grader who forgot his homework in the band room. I said, "Yeah, that must be like if Michael lost his voice." Michael is an obnoxious brat who never stops talking and being annoying. Both her and Margarita made faces and laughed. I said, "No, really! He lives across the street from me! I've had bad experiences with him....he tried to choke me once! Trust me, he's better now than he was in elementary school..." Actually, it's true, but they looked at me in disbelief for a second; the period ended though so we couldn't continue the discussion.

I'm a snare and one day when we were playing this new peice another drummer, josh, was dragging (playing slower then tempo) so we had to play it again, but this time josh rushed so Mr. Wells (Drum instuctor) said "Josh stop either rushing or dragging, but I'd rather you be Russian because Dragons breath fire." It was SOOO Stupid, no one would've laughed but he did the stupid duh duh chhh thing or whatever comedians do after telling a joke. He thought we were laughing at his joke but we were really laughing at his stupidness.

This is more of just a section thing but...
So in my Section, I'm in the minority. As in, all everyone else is a guys. So when we went to a Jazz festival, one of them shouted out "Where's Rachelle!" So they would say that too me all the time. Well one of the other kids kept missing his crash cymbal part, and so when we played it at a festival, he missed the most important note. Well, we went back stage, and one of the other kids was like "where was your Crash cymbal, so now every once in a while, I'll just randomly say, "Where's your Crash Cymbal" It's just kind of an inside joke.
Also, our percussion teacher always says, "Why is it a Bra and a pair of Panties?, And why do we Park in a driveway, and Drive in a Parkway?"

Well, I've got one, but it isn't about my BD.
In my area we have a school that goes Pre-k to 8th grade and then you can go to 2 different schools. Well, they are closing 6-8th grade part of that school and my BD took a bunch of students that went to that school (I went to it but for some reason wasn't invited to go. I do the most for that school and I don't want anything. The people that went only do stuff if they want something alright) to try to get the band students there to come to the school I go to now. Well, the senior tuba player, Barry, was talking about trips we take and this is what he said:
Our band is like one big family. We eat together, we play together, we even sleep together.
Well, all of the High School students took it the wrong way, I bet I'm not the only one to do that either. But our BD told us about it the next day, so yeah...
