Welcome to Gaia! ::

This year, our field show was Pirates of the Caribbean. In true pirate spirit, we decided the only way to start the show was with Pirates' Preset. The whole band stumbling around drunk singing "A Pirate's Life For Me" and our two drum majors crashing into each other was something to see, especially since after the second chorus, everyone snapped to regular preset and we started the show. We played it quite well, I might add.

The following story is for AnnieMaeve1315, but anyone else can read it. Our freshman year, AM started dating a senior in the band, and on the way back from our band trip to Chicago, she sat with him but wouldn't kiss him. His friends were sitting in the seat behind them and started singing "Kiss the Girl" from "The Little Mermaid". Three years later, that song still makes her blush.

thanks aegeantea for bringing that back up

Last year, my freshman year, the band went up to Thousand Oaks, California for festival. The festival was being held at a highschool, so while we were there classes were still being held. The students there had to be the whitest people I've ever seen, and I'm white. I was so used to being around all the Hispanics, Asians, and African Americans at my school that when we got there I was like: "Where'd all these freakin' white people come from?" There were the ditziest girls there as well. We were walking around the campus to go to the auditorium. A girl shouts out, "where are you guys from?" We say Norwalk, and she said: "Oh that's a 562 area code." The only thing that went through my mind at that point was, "No wonder people here think white people are stupid." That's when one of the drummers leaned over and whispered to me, "You are so Mexican compared to these people." It was pretty funny.

Our band went to a band competition at a amuzement part so, you can say for sure we went crazy..the girls stripped into bikinis and we went wild..girls agaisnt boys basketball which was wild..really wild. It was fun all the same. But the worst and crziest part was for my friend patrick..see patrick was made fun of before this event, and it didn't help him much. Patrick had an emergency on the bus so he went to the bathroom on the bus in the back bus bathroom sadly..kids were forced to sit by the bathroom door. Poor patrick forgets to lock the door of the bathroom and the door swung open on him..i felt really bad..because people definetly saw that. xp sad

Well, we have this tradition to go to Cedar Point every year. On the trip home, everyone usually sleeps. This year, however...

Too much cotton candy in the majorette/non-talented drummers section. Since the band director fell asleep, and the tenor sax's dad, who was also chaperoning, was in the process of falling asleep... They decided to play Strip Pididdle. (spelling?!?!) The object of this game, since it was 11pm, was to find a car with one headlight out; motorcycles don't count.

So, they're going along, and it's getting kinda annoying having twelve people scream "PIDIDDLE!" and smacking the ceiling. They manage to snare the newbie trumpet player into playing, and he's trying to get me to help him because he's sitting there in his boxers. (it's not a pretty sight with some of the players in thongs or completely naked...)

So, instead of stripping all the way down, one of the losers decides to go to the front of the bus and shove their bare butt in the director's face. She goes up to do it, when everyone realizes... the chaperone is still awake!!! Luckily, he just laughed and she didn't get int trouble or anything, but let's say that the game died down pretty quickly after that...

I've got two stories: The first one happened in my freshman year...the buses were all parked in a line before we headed out to the football game. Well, my friends and I sat up front and we noticed that at the very back of the bus in front of us were these two kids seriously making out. So we told the bus driver to honk at them, and when she did the kids about jumped out of their uniforms!!! It was so funny, omg, we just cracked up.
The second story happened in my sophomore year--our bus broke down on the way to a competition and so we were stuck on the side of the interstate. Well a lot of truckers travel that interstate so my friend and I were screaming and waving at each one that went by and every one of them honked the horn at us. Good times. whee

This always happens in my band when section leaders give their section presents. It's so much! Next time I am going to try to get somebody to squirt or bd.

this year my band was coming home from a marching contest and someone was taking off their uniform pants and a old lady pulled the bus over and told the driver people were striping in the back blaugh
