The_Moons_Reject Trumpets:: Even though my bf is one, hes not as bad as most of them. There always talking and we have so many of them they over take the band, and there really loud. There's these 2 girls that sit behind me and there always talking. And then the first chair trumpet does really dumb stuff. Again he never shuts up. I have to say my bf doesnt talk because hes by 2 people who make fun of him and hes no where near friends :/ Flutes:: >.< They think there all that, and there sooo out of tune all the time. My BD has discovered our music sounds better without them.. They've gotten better though, but there still pretty bad. Low Part of the band:: Im not sure who it is, but there always blasting sound. It overtakes part of the band. TH elow part, well, I play clarinet in MB and bass clarinet in concert band Ive found that, as a upper wind , you need to give more then a low wind would. Because they tend to have more power natuarally My thing is , when I play clarinet I try my best to crank it, so, my theory is that if you cant hear yourself , play harder, if its your hardest, well, just give it your best our low brass does that in marching band too.

The benefit of my bd being stupid and sticking me with third parts(despite the two years running as my school's top clarinet player>.>) is that I don't have to try as hard to get notes and rythyms right, so I can crank it up to overpower everyone else. If the bd doesn't say your too loud, then your fine. If he says your too quiet, you have a problem.

Clarinets.
They don't practice.
They don't try.
They don't care.
They really, really irritate me.

Trumpets- They're all pretty lazy, never on pitch, love to be idiots, the list goes on
Everyone else I'm okay with. Our trumpets are just.. ehh..... (even though I was a trumpet before but not for my school band)

Mmm You see, like you, ive never had the problem of being too soft xD except, I do get yelled at for playing too loud =_= LLOL if you watch videos of my band the obnoxius clarinet thats like totally balsting (the only one you can really hear xD) is probably me. (lol so is my section obnnoxius? not really, they always practice, and we always have our stuff so..... oh and considering half of us are serious. )

i think every section has their moments...
Flutes: extremely ditzy, never kno wat's goin on
Clarinets: Don't kno how 2 play their instruments
Saxophones: always crackin dirty jokes
French horn: either plays rly loud or not @ all
Trumpets: don't show up 2 practice & wen they r there they can't play
Tenor Saxes: only 1 knows how 2 play & he can't read music...
Trombones: play so soft u can't hear them
Baritones: gay lovers, never payin attention
Tuba: would rather b dancin
Bass Guitar: is always half asleep
Percussion: loud, obnoxious, annoying...
this is my opinion of my band...

Yes the saxophones are pretty obnoxcious. wahmbulance I mean seriously, even though that's what i play. The TRUMPETS are the absolute MOST outrageous for sections though. scream Sometimes i feel like slitting them with my reeds. But that's just me.

We are. As in percussion, as in drumline, as in we have some of the funniest and obnoxious yet very dedicated to band people in the band.

I can hardly say a section... it's just the one guy that pisses me off. Loosemore (that's his last name but people like to call him that.) He plays Trombone and tuba. He absolutely SUCKS at the tuba and he's always out of tune on trombone. Plus he will play directly in your ear. OUCH!
I figured it out. The SECTION that annoys me the most it the drums. They never stop playing. Whenever our BD is talking to us about something important, they are drumming on the floor or on the drum equipment cabinet. And they don't cut off when she realizes something's wrong with the song. You know why? Because they are looking straight down as their drumming and they are lost in their little world.
Go Saxophones! We are always the first to cut off and we are all good at playing. So good that our BD said we should form a band outside of school. The school band has a concert tonight and we are going to perform our sax quintet. I'm excited!

that would have to be te baritones! we have a small band so there is only 2 of them but they really get our director pissed off. When we have crescendo's they overdo it and sound like dying elephants! Our group is "advanced band" not a little first grade band!!!!!!!!!! And they never stop talking! When the director cuts us off they either keep playing for a long time or they talk...Ugh! and after the director has had enough he makes the WHOLE band run a mile burning_eyes gaaaaaaah!

Percussion. I'm a clarinet player and I can play better percussion than them, but they act smug and talk all the time. They come in late and forget their music too. They EPIC FAIL.
But I heart Low Brass wink

It changed over the years.
When we first started out in middle school it was the trumpet section. Then it became the percussion section in highschool, and is the clarinet section now that I've graduated.
