xx_killer_kisses_xx i had a really bad case of hiccups during class once. lets just say the clarinets were sounding a little staccito that day...... something similar to that happened to my friend who sits next to me. the BD was giving one of his speeches and he just happened to have his clarinet in his mouth and right before he pulled it out he sneezed and made this wierd squeaky noise

Okay, marching camp. my sisters Sophmore year. her band was doing their sets when the drum line got up in front of the band. (Every one except the drum major and the teacher.) And when no one was looking pulled the backs of their pants down. But you couldn't tell fron the front, Our bd wondered why the band couldn't stop laughing. As we continued marching( in the style we were marching we were always facing forward) he never knew but he knew it had to be the drum lines fault, as always.
(My sister)
(Me) Our bd told us a time way back when. The goofy tuba kid in his first years as bd. He was always doing something. Once he was making faces into his tuba bell, another he had a dent in his bell where he was banging his face into it. Grossest was when he would pick his nose, show what he got out to everyone, and put it back again.

my sis just remembered a story about bd mr.O.
In the 06-07 year, we were on our way to st.Louise missourie. Halfway there, we stopped for lunch. We were given about an hour to eat. There were several fast food resturaunts to chooses from. Along with my freinds we went to burgerking. Being first in line, we got our food faST. As usuals the bd's Came in last. This B.K., it was very large. It was already filled with half the band. When mr.O walked in, the whole band looked at him, raised their arms in an 'O' shape, and yelled "Ohhhh!" Mr.O is his nickname. We do that whenever he walks by. It wasn't just the BAND in the burger king mind you.

the day of my band's last consert I would suddenly would start coughing with no warning at all, so during our first song THE second before we started playing I had to cough, but I didn't want to cough during the song so I ended up not playing for the first half of the song, so I sat there shaking from the need to cough, at one point a tear ran down my cheek.
btw the clarinets(my instrument) where the only ones with the melody and I'm the only one with second part.

This past marching season, the following things happened:
1. We have a "Freshman Day" on the day of our homecoming fb game. It's when you prank, pick on, and beat on the freshman. Our prank: we fillrd every freshman trumpeter's mouth peice with petroleum jelly. Funny as hell when the went to play and they were like "Wtf?"
2. At an away fb game we were about to play a song (Old Time Rock and Roll I think...) and the opposing band started a drum cadence. 5 minutes went by. 7.8. Someone*cough*Me*cough* Yelled "WTF is this???Free Bird?" And when I tell you everyone laug I mean even the people in the bleachers who heard were laughing. 5 point s for me.
3. This actually happened last year. We're unloading some trailers out of our old storage room for out trip to the state marching festival, a tenor sax(real macho guy), a Tuba and myself. When we moved the first trailer, like 4 cockroaches crawled on it, on onto the tenor sax'sw and. he freak(and screams like a little girl),drops his side of the trailer, I'm laughing so hard I drop mine, and it lands on the tuba player's foot.

We were sight reading the Alamo, for a concert and one of my fellow saxs got lost and decided to play jingle bells throught the whole peice. The band director started starring at him and then he thought she wanted him to play louder so she did. Then all of the saxs started cracking up biggrin

said by the lead alto 1:
E, u REALLY need to make it STAND OUT HARD, FINGER AND TOUNG HARDER!!!!!!!
*cue laughter*
lol
also, heated card games. "no you can't play because ull beat us!"
"is their anything worse than being vice-janitor?"
and when director has to leave for a bit, we become musically disabled for whoever conducts, tell me, how hard is it to hit every note wrong in jingle bells?
and instrument wars, "don't piss her off her, sax is bigger than ours... she could hurt us"

just remembered another one, before a board concert we were filing onto the stage, no lights on but curtains were up, i have the music for me and my friend who was right infront of me. the senior vocal ensemble was performing as we were going on. i was wearing heels and a skirt, i'm not extremly good at walking in either,and i had my alto around my neck, so, of course, i trip, drop my music, grab my friend, take him down and 2 stands with us,i was humiliated, and he was laughing so hard... so after we perform, my band director was trying not to laugh at me but sujested i wear flats next time, and a flute player from my school comes up to me and was like i knew it was you, nice one, and we all died laughing...
and the rest of the band found out by the next practise and wldn't drop it...
