the division bell you know when your a band geek when you talk to people who arnt in band and they look at you like your speaking some kind of alien langue. you know your a band geek when your boy or girl friend breaks up with you becaues they have nothing to talk with you about becasue all you know to talk about is band.
*You know you're a band geek when you are actually comfortable in uniform.

You know you're a band geek when... You have songs from your previous shows on your MP3 Player. You still cry about missing band because you graduated four and a half months ago. You made a "Band Video" as your senior project in your video class and you still watch it and get teary eyed. You still practice marching even when you probably won't need to anymore, and people ask why you're walking like there is a stick up your butt. When you point out something about band life to a non-band geek and when they don't care about it as much, it pisses you off. You show off how tough you are to other people by telling them about your marching band practices. Example... Conversation Non-Band Geek: Well, I once took a foot to the face! Broke my nose! Band Geek: Oh yeah? Well, I had to march the left corners of the box in 95 degree weather while wearing an itchy uniform, while playing music on a sax that is straining on my back and neck, while being very thirsty, while roll stepping, while trying to keep the music memorized, while watching the Drum Major to make sure I was on the correct foot and while making sure we weren't stopping in the middle of a street FOR FIVE MILES. *deep breath* Non-Band Geek: ...damn.

You know you're a band geek when...
your band locker is organized ever so specially, with a hiding space for cookies.
you experience more Drama than the drama club.
you've only ever dated fellow band geeks. (No one else will do!)
your email expresses your geekisms. ;3
you meet a really cute guy, and ask "is that a plume in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"

Tis a beatiful thing. Everytime he see me he yells "Hey Tuba Buddy!"

You know ur a band geek when...
-you carry atleast 2 extra reeds and a swab in ur binder (just incase)
-with anything beeping or blinking, you start to sing a song that tempo
-when ur band director gives you a ride home, and on the way he askes, hows that new mouthpeice doing?
-during a hurricane, you took ur mallet, and kept them in ur pocket
when u remember ur flutes b-day better than ur moms
-during band class when everybody is silent, you have to play a tester note, b/c ur so bored.
-when you ask ur dad to come to the football game with the school colors painted on his face.
I've got more, I'll have to remember them...

You know you're a band nerd when you mouth is somehow 'glued' to the mouthpiece and you can't stop playing.
You also know you're a band geek when someone taps a pencil, and you tap yours and make it the beat of a song you play in band.
Dude, today someone did it and my pencil just started tapping.
