No, I don't have anyone in my group thats like that. They only say "Good job Erin," or, "You're playing really good". Except they don't ask me for advice on the clairnets. They ask all the pretty, snobby girls who make fun of others...
Anyway, my answer to your question is no, nobody in my group acts like what has happened to you.

there's this one guy in clarinet.. he's in my year and.. he's so annoying!! first of all, the clarinet is almost taller than him when he sits down and he's always squeaking and he acts like he's so good at the instrument when in fact the other girl in clarinet who is also my year, she's good at clarinet.. he's just.. scream scream scream scream domokun domokun domokun
i guess i just have to be glad he's not in euphonium.. otherwise.. argh.. i may have done something very evil to him... or quit..

Okay, normally it's the upperclassmen that act like if they don't know it then it isn't worth knowing and so on, right?
Well, I got into a souting match with a rookie in marching band...
We were in sectionals, and low brass/woodwinds doubled up.
Now, see, the rookie plays tenor sax, and his officer was telling him he wasn't articulating right and kept flubbing a fingering, and was trying to help him fix it.
But, the rookie took issue with that and started flipping out at the officer...
So my officer went over to help, but to no avail...
So I asked my frustrated officer if I could try, and he said yes.
NOTE: This is the rookie that hates/fears me because I hauled him across the field. However, being REALLY short, he feel he has to be the most macho guy around to compensate.
So, I go over to play good cop/bad cop with his officer (w/me as bad cop). So, after trying to get him to shut up for a moment, he started yelling in my face (or as close to it as he could get...I'm about 5'2" and he's an easy four to five inches shorter than me).
I took issue with this.
So I started "projecting" at him.
By this point, his officer knows what's coming, so backs away...
NOTE: When I say "projecting", think stage-voice type stuff (pervs...).
Well, he starts yelling at me about my yelling at him, so I showed him what my yell is like...
By this point, his officer has told the others to brace themselves...
And I yell at him really loud...
And it sounds pretty "manly" according to my friends XD
So he shuts up and is very meek for the rest of rehearsal...
Though I did catch him complaining to his mom...
Who high-fived me, saying tha he needed to learn discipline, to shut up and do what he's told, and to be more respectful.
And now he REALLY listens hard to what I say, plus what the officers say when they threaten to sic me on him XD

We do. Thank God she is leaving! YES!!! She said our trombone section sounds like cows. Well she can't read music, finger valve positions, or play her trumpet. She sounds like a dying cat, and people told her that! She just laughs...

Yeah so we had this third flute player. He thought he was god's gift to the section despite the fact he was pretty close to last chair. He would flutter tongue instead of trill. He would miss notes constantly, or give up when he couldn't play. His tone was horribly airy. Yet all he did was criticize other people. And not even constructively, it's just like, "Your tone is crap." Gah.

Ugh...i dislike when there's that "one person"!...there is NO "BETTER THAN YOU" in band!...it takes practice to be good and if EVERYONE practices, then we would ALL be on the same level!...it's just people who THINK they're really good...are very cocky and don't have consideration for others who are new...ya know...before that cocky person was "really good" it took them one time in there life to truly suck too...No one is good at something the first time.. xp
