i love band camp!
we played The Great Steambost Race( kinda a rip off of the Great Locomotive Race) and the percussion had gallon milk jugs full of water. It was meant to be the water churning. Our director was awesome! Hes got the ming of any typical teen. So when we ere rehearsing it, the percussion werent 'playing' the milk jugs loud enough. He yelled as loud as he could(and at a bad time, the dude who runs the camp walked in): "SHAKE THEM JUGS, BABY!" Omg. we all died laughing, the dude who runs the camp included.

Jazz band sectionals always get a little...lulzy.
H: ..okay, piano, start at 130. Ryan: ...where is that? These measures aren't numbered! D: Me:...does your part have the little teeny numbers underneath the measures? Ryan: No...oh, wait, whoa. I've never seen that before XD H: Yeah, it's weird to be so good at playing one style of music...classical, in your case...and then have to kind of relearn everything for jazz band. Robbie: Yeah, I have the same problem, I'm SO good at classical. H: ....*stare*...okay...so...130. Everyone: lol.

I love my BD. He always manages to make us burst out laughing.
Whenever he's telling us what things we need if we're going on a trip or something, sometimes he'll say, "All you need is your instrument and your band shirt ::quick pause:: , and pants or shorts. xP" He always makes sure to say we need to bring all articles of clothing; it makes me wonder what band kid did to make him say that.... xD
Also, whenever he's telling us to do something and it sounds perverted, he starts laughing and everyone else does too. ^^

lol, Bubbles.
Hartmetz always threatens to do weird things to make everyone sit up straight.
"I'll find a way to electrify the backs of the chairs so they zap you when you lean back!" "I'll rig the chairs so spikes come out and poke you when you lean back!" "I'll have a laser system that'll chop you off if you sit up too tall or go too short...I'll be immune, of course...*percussion complain*..and so will the percussion." "I'll tie your instruments to your chairs with rope! Yes, like I did to Lele last year. >_>"

In 7th grade, the BD gave us a little talk about seating posture. He insisted that we sit on the front 6 inches of our chair or sit all the way back so that the special "Posture enhancing" chair would make you sit up straight. He gave us a choice, and I was the only person who sat on the edge of my chair (I had a shirt that tied in the back, so when I sat back in my chair the knot hurt my back...). Being the only person sitting on the edge, Mr.C looked at me and said to the class "Looks like Katie feels like LIVIN' ON THE EEEDGGGEEE!" That isn't the only one, but it's the one I remember the clearest. Now every time somebody sits on the edge of their chair (predominantly in the flute section) they are 'Living on the edge!' rofl rofl rofl

Hartmetz: Okay...you guys heard of Quincy Jones before? He arranged a lot of stuff... Ryan: ...wasn't he the guy from Looney Tunes? Everyone: ... Me: ...that was Chuck Jones, Ryan. XDD Hartmetz: Good girl! Who was the music guy for that? Me: ...>> I dunno.
...and that sparked a ten minute thing about the guy that did music on Looney Tunes, which led back to Quincy Jones, and somehow led to Michael Jackson before he went nuts. Yeah...we didn't get anything done at practice yesterday. XD
