ah, but it can be nice to have someone to spend the long, cold bus ride with, eh?...

if you know the b-wood director mr. koch... then you've heard "my gosh!" way too many times.. strangely enough ive prolly heard it literally hundreds to thousands of times... and its still frikin funny when he says it. (cell rings) "hello?" (its his wife) "...riiiigghht... im in jazz band, bye" (hangs up) "anyone can march... i could grab some random druggie in the halls and teach him to march... its how you play that defines your talent" "push to the hit!"- more this year than ever "MY GOSH!" (stands up on the rail of the tower, with everyone gasping) "i want your bell up here on that horn flash!!" "i want you playing every note... if you fall down backward marching, and get your face stepped on... i want you playing every note." "b-wood? my gosh! more like B-WILL"

-when you have nothing to do in class,so the only and most brilliant idea in the world is to take 45 minutes composing the trumpet swing jazz etude on your cellphone...and use it as your primary ringtone -when you yell at your non-band friends to lower the third in the 1-3-5 chord while singing "barbara ann", and never once realize they have no frikin clue what you are talking about. -when you sign up for one of these forums -when all 4 of your trumpets were the first things you put in your car during the hurricane rita evacuation -when you get mad at non-band people for liking the movie Drumline -when you get mad at all the beginner band students wanting to be a percussionist... because of said movie -when you find a hot chick in band to be that much more uniquely hot... because they are in fact a hot chick in band...(no offense to the general female band population...) -when you reconsider dating someone... because they're in your section -when your elected homecoming king or queen... because band holds ALL political power -when you listen to a 'the mars volta' song and think "this would be awesome as a marching show".

mine would be 'The Professor' by Damien Rice... woo! go depressing music!

high brass sectionals are **** now after my recent split... we're in different sections but being in symphonic (the same period), her bein a french horn and me a trumpet, almost everything to do with band pits us together... not good timing when you break up the day before summer band starts 0_o... i mean we're still cool... but if you knew them previously well as a fellow band nerd it'll just be wierd after it like almost no matter what... and i wouldnt know... but there would prolly be a positive and negative side to being in the same section after a break up... 1.it'd be easier to get used to it quicker or 2. it'll be sucky with drama or etc... ya... wow... im bored

"he/she's jus blowing up all over the place" (which is supposed to mean they're doin good) "the first time in buc band history" (he says that every year about same things) "hey guys... thats just not the buc band way..." "if your talking/chatting/standing with your heels apart/not at your spot you dont want to go to State" (this term was introduced last year before area... its now like the biggest (and funniest) inside joke to use among band nerds... like "if your not going to the movies with us, you don't want to go to State"
