We always get judged by this one BD from another school and he is only really concernd about the clarinets. Every time he judges us, there is always this comment on his score sheet: "The clarinets need new mouthpieces." even when they all just got new mouthpieces.

we seem to get a lot of flak from judges for using all 4 bass drums for both Drumline and Band competition...A lot of judges mispronounce the name of our school also (it's not that hard... scream ) one judge said we had two much bass and then about 10 secs later he said there were too many high voices question We did have one funny tape tho, the judge's tape palyer was slow so when we listened to it he sounded like frickin Mickey Mouse or one of those Chipmunk things.

We never did hear it for ourselves, but the guard, driectors and drum major kept bringing it up.

"The majorettes..... are really distracting...... They're taking away from the performance." razz
"OMG! She dropped the baton! The grass is on fire!"
And one time we counted how many times a judge said "very good" or something like that. I think the total was like 48 or something... I swear that must've been his favorite phrase.

We've had many so here are a few of my favorites starting with last years show cause that's where all the weridness is, and yes this is marching band judge comments here. "What is the point of that note?" Lead trumpet dude plays a double C during a chord while we're all on normal notes. "What is the point of that flage?!" Same judge where at the end of opener guard girl runs all across the feild with a rainbow flag. Our show is Shades of Blue. This year's show's odd comments are mostly all from the same judge but differant show locations. "Is that a black widow? Yes it is!" Phobia show and song was Aracniphobia and giant black widow sign randomly pops up on the feild. "Alright, Pycho!" Yes, same judge same song, at the end the clarinets play Pycoh. "Did we drop a clarinet?" Same judge, differnt location, Niecce's clarinet's lower half fell off right when we were in home 50 area. She was gonna leave it but section leader gave her look that read "Leave it and die" so at this part where we're "franticaly shaking spiders off ourselves" she was able to grab it and only that one judge saw it. "I didn't understand your show at all" Some old judge at the end of our show.

One year we did a marching show, the music from Jekylle and Hyde. My band director has issues. We did the full thing. A baratone player played Jekylle and a melaphone player was his girl Lisa. Jekylle turned into hyde by going behind a large triange we had constructed with an image from the play on the front, a smoke bomb set up by a flag member would go off and he'd come out at Hyde.
A judge was in the middle of watching this, and this is about what he said "What's going on? Is the field on fire? Oh! he's turned into hyde that's so- hey that tuba player's out of line- anyway, that's so cool." mid sentance stoped to say that.

"YYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH now if you can just get the trumpets to control their dynamics better that would be something to get excited about....YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHH" that was what some judge at our comp was yelling into his recorder and I mean he was yelling I could hear him yelling on the sidlelines in the middle of the full band drill and I was in the dead center of the field. I had trombones be hind me and the trpts in front of me. I think he went hoarse after that.

We got one judge one time who hardly said anything. And when he did speak, I didn't really pay attention anyway because he was a music judge and I'm in guard.

Music effect judge: "Nice silks" and "I don't understand the colouring of your backdrops."
If you're a musical effect judge, shouldn't you be listening to the music and not really watching anything?

"You shouldn't bring your practice marimba to competitions." Unfortunately, our school is so cheap that the marimba we were using there was our only marimba, and a crappy one at that. It died recently.
