We made our band teacher cry once.... I felt bad because it was her birthday. It was because everyone kept messing up at the end of the song sweatdrop

When my band director wants us to play something a certain way, he describes how to play it using food. It's strange, yet slightly amusing.

Hartmetz: Now, I know you can all send e-mails, talk on the phone, and watch a movie all at once...but please, let one of those things you're doing be me!
(forgive me if I've said these already)
Hartmetz: ...and by the time we had finished for the day, I was so wasted...
Hartmetz: For our Halloween concert, PLEASE don't wear anything that covers your entire face...I tried that once, with a gorilla mask...playing trombone through rubber doesn't work too well.

Hartmetz: Your lungs should squeeze your guts out a bit...that's why your stomach goes out. Mine only goes out a little...but that's cause I'm long and tall...but for those of you normal people who aren't freaks of nature...

Hudson: (demonstrating how to advertise) You like donuts? Me too! Wanna buy a discount card?
He also calls band couples "teams."
Hudson: Who's your beau these days? (insert the trumpet kid's name)? Me: Yeah Hudson: Go over his house and smooch.

A bunch of us told our two BDs (older/more experience is the women, drags, the other is a young guy) that the night b4, one of our trumpets made a group for our band on facebook.
we were talking about what were were trying to put on it, when Drags said "You should put hot nude band chicks on there" rofl
Me and my friend were crying it was so funny

The night before our Disney trip, we all stayed in the band room (cuz we were leaving at like 3 AM anyway, so the majority of us spent the night in there, lol). Somebody needed a belt, but wasn't wearing one, so his underwear was showing. Hudson: Hey you! Pull up your pants! You don' want to see my underwear, I don't want to see yours! You wanna see my underwear? *pulls his pants down a little*
ROFLMAO. heart

I was ready to be sought out by those who did not ask, to be found by those who did not seek me. Okay, my band director has a reputation. He tells us clarinets when we squeak or squawk this, "Hey, clarinets...I think I heard a couple of chickens, do you think I should bring some chicken feed to feed these chickens?" I'm a freshman but I've heard that he actually has brought bird feed and gave some to the clarinets before XD.
My other band director who runs drill says when he sees us looking at the ground, "Hey, why are you looking at the ground?! Are you scared it's not gonna be there if you don't keep your eyes on it?? It will still be there, I promise you."
And a funny thing happened when we got our band director excited while playing the first movement in Romeo and Juliet. Well, he told our drum majors to stop us at certain measure, and we're playing really good and you start to see him jump up and down. Moving his arms really violently when he's conducting. Well, soon enough we got to the measure we were supposed to stop at and the drum majors stopped conducting. He suddenly got angry and said, "WHY DID YOU STOP?!" And they were like, "...You told us to stop..." <.< And people started laughing and he was like, "Oh yeah...sorry, guys, my bad. I got excited."
Also we have to scream a kinda yell when we get our horns up and sometimes we have to do it 2 or 3 times in the morning because everyone is tired. Well, if we barely scream it at all our band director will say, "That was great guys, I could actually understand that one. Now, if you would put some Intestinal Fortitude behind it, I might actually think you're a marching band."
Oh, and one hilarious moment! You might've had to been there but once when we really weren't motivated to march our band director started lecturing us on how we need to stay focused. Well, somehow he got into a lecture with being happy with who we are and he asked, "Are you happy with you are at home? Really, are you happy?" And a lot of people were just like, "..." And then he almost burst out laughing and just said, "You know what, just forget I asked." And we all laughed for like 5 minutes.
I'm sure there is more...I'll post about them when I experience them.
I said, "Here I am, here I am," To a nation that did not call on my name.

Um, a lot of times when we're going through stuff and are practicing, some people mess up, right? Every once in awhile one dude messes up and my BD is like, "ALEX!!! What are you doing?!?!? Last year (before my BD was my BD) he got a fake wig with pigtails as a gift (my BD's bald so it was pretty funny)
