Our poor BD, he doesn't know what he's saying half the time. That is, until we laugh at him for making whatever he's saying sound completely wrong.
"I don't know why more people don't come to the girl's basketball games. I think they're funner to watch than the guys"
"There's tension and release there. Like Uhn, Uhnn, Uhn, Ahhh." *it sounded really bad when he said it aloud*
"When you're in Wind Ensemble, you can do THAT GUY!" *there's a big picture of a famous composer on the wall behind our BD*

This is a quote from one of my indoor drumline instructors. Some of us (the cymbals) were having an issue playing on two in 3/4 time and he was like "YOU GUYS HAVE TO MASTER BEAT TWO!!!" and it turned into a giggling fit for about 30 minutes (4/6 of the cymbal line are girls).
This one wasnt from a BD but it was still really funny. The cymbals ere practing in a hallway one night at practice and this little boy runs up Boy: THATS NOISE! His mom: no that not noise it is beautiful music and they dont need hooligans like you interupting them.
Our cymbal shirts say on the front "that is noise!" and on the back "no its beautiful music you hooligan!"

We all know the CLASSIC band director (lie) line : "One more time guys!" But one my band director keeps using is: " A line that's not in line is not a line."

"We are NOT that kind of band!" Lol that was funny! "Never play louder than beautiful" That's just one he says 24/7. "What did I tell you about using softer mallets?!"

Harris is amazing. and says so much stuff, its hilarious.
icr exactly what we were talking about, but i think he was trying to say, like we all make mistakes or something, but he said "We're all stupid on the inside"
about using you muscles and such for marching and air support. he was trying to demonstrate this "now try to look... it may not seam like i have any ab muscles, but trust me, under all this fat, their there."
"Do what i mean, not what i say"
and he has many analogies... oh the harris analogies smile
"i want your sound to be smooth and rich... like cake" (and along with that, or an analogy like that) "i like cake"
"no you have to sound like a big fat black guy." (if anyone plays the song half time, that what we were playing)
"you have to be sneeky... like a ninja"

The one that always makes us groan: "Discipline is not a punishment."
Ha, one time during class, the band was playing something, then he was all like, "Wow. This music sounds like something out of an Annie-May." (Trying to say anime.)
That and, he was talking about comics and said, "Yeah, something like out of a comic or a hentai comic." Say WHAT??? O.o?

That, and he can't pronouce his 'g's.
My freshmen year, one of our main sets was a angle. He'd always says, "GET IN YOUR ANGLES!" But, it comes out, "GET IN YOUR AN'LES!"
That was on the senior's shirts this year along with, 'We''ve got our han'ers too."

Well this was my former flag coach; "Ladies that is NOT a fake batman run! THIS is a fake Batman run!"
"Don't make me stick that flag up your==" 'LAUREN YOU'RE THE COACH NOT THE STUDENT!!!" <--Angry BD.
Band Director;
"Blow harder, yes, thats it. Your almost there. A little harder....YES! There we go!" The whole flag team was laughing so hard as we watched them warm up!
