"I need a whoopie cushion..."
"You're starting to rain."
Both from Hartmetz being insane.

So my band directer last year was a trombone major. So in class one of our two trombones was saying how he would like to smash the bell on his trombone. My band director geniusly told us that one of his professors said that even if you smash your bell, it would still sound the same. So the professor took a hammer or something to one and played it and it sounded normal. Of course, the trombones got mischevious smiles and my band director was, "Oops... shouldn't have told you that... Don't do that at home!" yup, we all laughed.

My band directer told the our very small trombone section that the trumpets were more enthusiastic and were playing beter than us. And we ,the trombones were all "Haha, that's very funny" (lets just say we turned stars and stripes forever into a 150 measure long trombone soli) wink

Last summer band, we had this pinwheel thing where one side was marching forwards and the other was marching backwards , and our BD was yelling at people while they were marching and was turned around and didn't notice the wall of people coming at him (the backwards people) and he got hit by probably the smallest person in band and fell, and she just kept marching and stomped all over him, it was hilarious. Now everytime he's walking past her while they're marching, he goes "I'm sorry! Don't try to kill me again!" or something along those lines.
Another one was when we had 2 boxes of people that had to sort of criss cross marching towards each other, and one of them was off somehow and it ended up in everybody but 2 snare drums tripping up, and the snare drums stood there and had a drum off. yeah that one's not funny.

I believe that Hartmetz had to wear our tall Euphonium player's tuxedo pants for a picture...
Mangus: Hey, are those my pants?
Hartmetz: Maybe. They're either yours or Chris's.
Chris: What? No. They've got to be Mangus's. I'm not scrawny like him.
Mangus: WOOOT! I'M SCRAWNY!
..yeah, it's weird.

"We're not marching Cs, we're marching Is"
"boobs to the box"
both are referring to posture, although the second one has changed since i first joined, it was more of a class thing that the BD too

Two people who we don't know came over the hill nearby and had signs saying:
"KEEP IT DOWN"
"OUR CATS DON'T LIKE THE NOISE!"
Hartmetz said: "Oh, noise is good for cats, they'll get used to it."

Heh, Hartmetz and Stein were talking about something entirely different, then I walked over, and this happened:
Hartmetz: And so---how are we gonna get rid of *name*?
Stein: Yeah, she's just so darn loud.
Me: stare
They were being totally sarcastic, Hartmetz stopped in mid-sentence when he saw me. xd

My BD, Z always tells us stories about his past band trips. one of them went sorta like this:
year back, they were on a trip and some kid (lets call him ryan) had brought along a 24 pack of mountain dew. The trip was about seven (or so) hours long and he chugged them all. As they were getting off the bus, Z stood outside the door and when Ryan walked off, he said. "Mr. Zimmerman, i dont feel too good." then keeled over and pucked right on Z's pants and shoes.
then another story is like this:
The MB took a trip to florida (i think) and played for either a Pro football game or minor leage hanlftime show. well, the band was on the sidelines waiting, and Z had told Desens that when he blew the whistle, send the band out. Well, somehow Desens got all confused and the band ended up going out late. So, of course, the show went a little long. And then, they learned that they didnt have as much time as they had thought originally, so they were even more scrunched for time. So Z tried to make the show go faster, but it just wouldnt make it. They were halfway through the last song when the football teams came out to start warming up. So, here's the band, still performing on the field, and there's football players running inbetween and footballs flying over the band. Let's just say they werent invited back.

Here's some of the better ones from my directors. :3
"Sleep makes you want more sleep; food gives you energy. That is why we feed you at band camp."
"Be so good they'll throw their babies at you!"
"But that's okay, I've got coffee."
"STOP PLAYING LIKE PANSIES!"
We also had some retarded kid come near the hill top over our practice field once and yell "You suck!" so that the entire band heard him. Our directors have this microphone thing and replied back "YOUR MOM." which needless to say, boomed out over the whole field. xd
Then at our band camp talent show, all three of them sat together near the top row and booed every time one of the band council guys came out on stage. But that was fine with me because the kid they were booing is a jackass.
Did I mention my directors also flipped over a golf cart at band camp?
