This is for all the folks in the tenor/bass trombone room at 4A Region 18 Phase 2 at Vista Ridge HS today...

 

You know you're a band nerd when the whole room gets bored after waiting 45 minutes for the judges to get there and you all decide to bust out "Land of 1000 Dances" to pass the time.

 

If there is anyone on here that was in that room, that was the best and funniest region moment I've ever been a part of!! I just hope we weren't too loud for the trumpets!!

...when you wake up at set

...when you would rather get out of a class that was watching a movie to go clean the band hall

...when you miss a review for a big test (that was the next day) because you were marking time under your desk

...when you hate it when you're listening to the radio and you turn on the turn signal and the tempos don't match (this surprisingly happens quite often)

...when you could google band nerd and a picture of you came up

 

*all of these apply to me*

sad but true :D
