Welcome to Gaia! ::

OHH YEAH! AND THEN CUZ WE'RE SO COOL HOLDER DISMISSED THE FRESHMEN FIRST!!! has it occured to you that we wont be dismissed first until we're seniors?! thats liek a looooong time! sweatdrop

flippin Jetsons...wow i hate that song with a passion xd the jetsons dance is stupid...our gay choreographer looked even gay-er when he was teaching it! i fell over during the dance when we did class marching...drumline is sooooo cool! hah not! 3nodding

This was more traumatizing than embarassing...okay both.
Well for marching band, our fflute section has this cute little trail arms thing where we switch flutes(we start marching to the field with each others flutes and get ours back during the trail arms) Usually, me and Katelyn(the pic) would trail arms but this one time, I was trailing arms with my friend Steph. Somewhere along the line we miscalculated the moves and my flute went straight to the ground. Immediately I dropped down and grabbed it, all the while glaring at Steph. The entire band started laughing, while i marched along checking my instrument for scratchs.
It wasn't fun for me, lol. It turned out that little tune-thingy on the top(the weird thing that twists on and off) got a huge scratch on it. It was pretty funny. I'll add another story too, but this one isn't about me.

We were performing at halftime at mt pleasant and the field was completely torn apart. It was muddy, and slippery and most of the grass was gone thanks to the football players. We march onto the field(a few of us slipping but not falling) And begin our show. In the beginning of the second movement my foot gets stuck in the mud, but I quickly moved out of it. The next thing I know, I hear and 'oohhh' from the crowd. I later came to find out that one of our trumpets, Patty had slipped in the mud during one of our movements. Our cheer that day for 'potatoe chips' was 'patty slipped dun, dun, dun dun' it was great.

This has probably happened to every trombone player once, but when you drop you're slide, everyone looks at you and laughs.It's pretty embarressing.

Oh my, I have a lot of these. The first happened to my fellow trumpet freshman year: He was trying to spin the trumpet around his finger like a gun because his big brother was doing it and it fell onto the track right on his mouth piece...not even the machines can get it out now xp

Another time I was teaching my friend Laurence to throw this lofty toss with a practice flag...he tried it, but it came down and hit me in the head...less embarassing, more painful, but our winterguard instructor took that toss out next week...ow.

I had first period off my sophmore year and always went in to practice piano or some other instrument. Apparently I got so into my practicing that I didn't hear the end of class bell. My friend came in and asked what I was doing knowing that I had second period band...I told her I was practicing and she said the bell had gone off. I ran to class (which was close thankfully) and the whole class laughed when I came in ten minutes late... redface

Oh yeah, I have my DM's most embarassing moment:
Ok, so before and after every marching band event we do (like competitions or games)we have this cheer, we also do it right before we're dismissed from practice.It's called"Eyes with pride"It goes like this-
Drum majors: HOW ARE YOUR FEET?Everyone else (at attention): TOGETHER!DM: HOW IS YOUR CHIN?E:UP!DM: HOW ARE YOUR SHOULDERS?E: BACK!DM: HOW IS YOUR CHEST?E: OUT!DM: EYES...?E: WITH PRIDE!DM: EYES..?E: WITH PRIDE!DM: EYES...?E: WITH PRIDE!(And then we do Detail fall out)
So it was after practice and (we have two male dms) we were starting our cheer. One of our dms (Blane) started, but when he said feet his voice cracked highest of any I've ever heard. They couldn't continue, and we could barely, we just did out part without there commands.
Now when we do detail fall out one of the drum majors tells us to jump as high as...or jump like... Well our other dm told us to jump and yell as high as Blane's voice just cracked. It was hilarious. Everyone still laughs about it!

Happy Carrot Day Everybody!!! blaugh

My Freshman year I missed the first week of band camp to start things off because I was in Maine. So the first day of the second week I get there and I'm late... crying It was the worst. I had to walk across the practice field in front of the entre band to figure out where I was supposed to be and get myself introduced. sweatdrop I've gotten slack for being late to everything ever since even though I'm only late to 3/4 of everything. xp

So . . .for concert band we went on a trip to Canada. We got to play in the snow and I decided it would be fun to attack the band directors. Too bad one of them is a judo champ. After hitting him with a couple snow balls. He threw me into a snow bank. Well it wasn't deep thank gosh. Anyway it's way better then what happened to my friend who go thrown into the snowbanks like 5 times by the director.
