We have one about one of our Clarinet boys in a dress. For about fifteen minutes one class we had him convinced that last Halloween he wore a dress. The director helped us out too.
Now whenever he bugs us we remind him about that lovely floral pattern dress.
During a Jazz practice one day, I was playing a solo and I accidentally started on the first part of beat one, as opposed to the end of beat one. My assistant director noticed this right away and then asked me "What are you starting on there?" I didn't understand his question at first, so I said "I'm not sure I understand your question." He reworded it to "You're supposed to be starting on the end of a beat." I got it that time, and then he asked again:
Director: "The solo starts on the off beat, what beat is it on?"
Me: "Ah?"
Director: "On the end of what?"
Me: "The end of that!" *points to page*
Everybody cracked up. It still comes up occasionally.

The trumpets at my school have this joke about stupid people. There's one French horn who never learned a part of the warm-up. Whenever we got there she'd play with her valves, pretending something was wrong, until that section was over. Now whenever they think something is stupid someone pretends their valves are broken and they all crack up.

Ok, my band director once asked if anyone would dress in a pink tutu saying it was a band tradition if we played this one song. This one boy in the trumpet section that I sit next to actually agreed to do it. All of a sudden all the chairs start to scoot away from him. We still joke about it as a whole. Even among friends he isn't safe from the joke.

alright, so, first, Mr. Ogren (our band director) has these names for all the sections, so like, for example, saxaphones=slackerphones, trombones=slushpumps, and they're not all inside jokes, but here's one. percussionists=concussionists, drummer=dumber. If you're wondering, I play percussion.
Second, mr. Ogren has this song he sang when we were in his class the first year, anytime someone made a mistake. It was to like a simple, toddler song. I will use smilies to demonstrate his face.
Guessing is evil smile
guessing is bad smile
as long as you're guessing smile
the music is bad too (the last note is scarily out of tune) evil

A percussionist kept having to play this one part over and over again and when he finally got it right, the percussion teacher went "Rock on!" and put up the rock on sign with his hand! It was soooo funny! (we have 3 band teachers)

Well a new Barri Sax player recently joined Stage band. Though she has the same name as one of the trumpets so they decided to call her 'Shoobert'. She's now known as 'Shoobert ooh ha ha'

Heh, our Band Director makes perverted jokes and doent even notice. Once he was passing out new Music sheets and he got to the Saxophones and said, "ah, the sax... Give me some sax.... Sax is good" Then I was talking to my friend and I said "PERVERT" really loud to her and he looked up and said, "Hey, is it my fault they call me that online?"

Don't make me take the Billys >3 So, I used this paper towel tube, drew a face on it, and named it Billy. Over like, 2 months, people kept adding to the Billy family. On April Fools day, someone held them all ransom. The Billys had to go bye bye though
