Freshman year region band auditions were pretty fun ... one kid was horrible(including over half the room) and he decided he had no chance. He went up to the performance chair and played a pedal Bb, got up, packed up his horn, and left the room. The head judge said please warm up on the first note of the etude only as the kid is packing up his horn. The judges just waited on nothing as everyone laughs. Our room moniter was too confused to do anything. Next up is a very uncoordinated (way below average band nerd) who started 3 lines from the cut. He gets up from the chair sniffling, then tries to squeeze by the row closed to the dry erase board. Now this kid is overweight, and happens to hit two porcelein sculptures that fall to the floor and shatter. The room is pretty loud now and the even the judges are laughing. That is the most fun i have had waiting in region tryouts ever. Btw, you really had to be there to see the kids.
