My band director completely blew up today. He said that its against the law to hit this stupid annoying kid named Durrico so he threw a stand at him, and kept on going, "SHUT UP!!!! JUST SHUT UP ALREAD, I'M TIRED OF YOU!!!" Then he cracked a joke afterwards and said that theres a garentee that these stands are unbreakable and he laughed and set it back up and completely ignored Durrico the rest of that period. I couldn't help it but I had to laugh.... I'm a horrible person, I know. Has your Director ever blown up? Well heres where you tell your story!

OMG my band director is a grumpy old person. he always gripes about us complaining that we can't feel our fingers when it's cold out. Sorry but us clarinets aren't exactly used to our fingers freezing off and going numb and sometimes purple. Or when it's too hot outside and we're casually talking about it here, he blows up. Oh and don't let me get started about when he yells at drumline... it's rather scary when he blows up at them. eek

Our band director is extremely, scarily, calm, collected and very passionate. As long as we are trying are bestest, she will not kill us.
Once she "exploded", it was scarier than hell. One of the PE teachers (PE and Music have a feud I swear) stole half the band for something useless and we had a performance in 2 days that we only found out about 3 days before. She didn't yell or scream or anything. It was actually more of an implosion. She was right again in 10 minutes, but it was the most intense 10 minutes of my musical career - which is fairly short, but still.

if my bd ever blew up like that, the world will end. he's a very young band director, just turned 32 on monday, and hardly ever gets mad, but you could definately tell he gets stressed sometimes just by how he walks and how his eyes are always beet red! but the only time i've ever seen him explode was when the soccer team was practicing on our field and nailed the flautist next to me in the jaw with the soccer ball after she just had surgery and the soccer team, including the coach laughed at her and it was right in the middle of our transition to the next set!

Never quite like that.
In high school during marching season we did a run-through and he stopped us half way through and said "What the hell was that?" That was the only time I ever heard my high school teacher cuss, so you know that he was mad. lol

Back in school our bandmistress could get very tense around competition time. Especially if we were playing sub-standard or the judges were evil, and one time she was so angry that she broke her conducting baton thingy... it was so funny, except she was so angry at us.

my band director from two years go freaked out on us once only because we couldn't stay in step for the life of us. we had it right yesterday, but it was raining and we kept getting our feet stuck in the mud D: next thing we knew, she threw her headset down and kept screaming: I'M DONE! I CAN'T WORK WITH YOU GUYS! JUST... I'M DONE!
we didn't really say anything afterwards. our other director (yeah, we normally have two, just for that matter) took charge while the other one hung out in her office. our faces were priceless though. i'm not gonna lie. blaugh

It's not as bad this year since the band is split into two different periods, but last year we were really loud. I like to think we have the attention span of a 2-year-old with a
particularly bad case of ADD.
We got daily lectures about how "if we every wanted to go to the Music Festival we'd better shut the hell up and play".
I love my BD. ^_^ <3

I don't really recall our BD blowing up at our class, but the Freshmen...yeah.
Freshman have band the period before us, so we walked in one day, and our BD was just like "Do not piss me off, I'm already mad at the Freshmen"
Then I talked to some of the Freshmen at lunch. One was just like "Mr. G is scary when he cusses."
I laughed.

During marching pratice my BD blew up at this kid and started cussing him out, it was hilarious exspecialy since nobody likes him! i am very surprised that he hasnt been kicked out yet, but every time my BD threatens to kick him out he doesnt show up at school for a couple days.
