I had this weird dream once where our band was going to some parade and we were really late. Our bd kept yelling at the bus driver who turned out to be the principal and then the bus somehow ended up going over a cliff. The band people used their instruments as parachutes and landed right where we were supposed to be in the parade, safe and sound. We were actually playing part of one of our songs on our instrument-parachutes as we were landing. And then we marched the rest of the parade as if nothing had happened.

I had a dream after reading most of the TFBC comics online so that probably induced this dream...Our Drum majors woke us up at 3:29 am in Rome to tell us we weren't performing our regular marching pieces and instead we were doing a tribute to Sonny and Cher...It was scary >.<;

I had a dream last night that this lady from one of our rival marching schools was paying me to be a hit-man and wipe out all of the best players from my school so that her school could send more people to all-state this year. I kept trying to tell people that they were under risk of assassination at any time, but by the time they listened to me, the lady had caught up to us and was gonna blow up the bus or something....

I dreamed I was mowing my BD's lawn, and trimming his bushes, and then he gave me 2 dollars, and said he'd give me two more if I shoveld his driveway (even though it was summer). I told him about it in real life, and how i thought two dollars was cheap, so he gave a quarter!!
Then, last night, I dreamed my BD decided he wanted me to play trombone (i play percussion.) Somehow I knew all the notes and slide positions, but I didn't know how to correctly blow to produce sound. So I was supposed to play a song for this ceremony, and I was making all these pffooosh noises. It was bad.
Other dreams just include band people.
My dreams are the wierdest things you have ever known. I'm not kidding. They freak me out, because of their immense level of queersome oddity.

I had a dream the other night about a band bus trip... though I don't think I should post it in its entirity here...
I once dreamed that last season's clarinet sl became dm, and she was making me march around the track (and it's all gravelling and sharp) barefoot b/c I had forgotten my Dinkles and was wearing sandals instead. There was more after, but it has nothing to do with band.

I have had quite a few marching band dreams lately. I can only remember one, and it was that there was a marching band competition in my backyard. It was odd, because there were a lot of bands marching around in my backyard, and I think that no one was watching either! rofl! And then, the band's dressing area was my little brother's room, and I couldn't find my shako box. it was very odd *shrugs* another dream that I had was that I could play the piccolo, and it was fun! he he he. . . i wanna try now. I have no idea why i chose the piccolo.

omg, i just had one a couple nights ago, this freaked me out... so i'm in my dorm room, just kind of lounging, and all of a sudden i realize, "oh man, it's game day, i'm supposed to be at the stadium right now!!!!!" so i magically teleport to the stadium (i don't really know if that was it, i just know i was in my dorm room, then at the stadium) and the band is on the field in the middle of the three in one and i'm like, "i am so dead" then i'm magically on the side lines watching the band play as fighter aircraft go overhead, and i'm all "if that's what they think is going to replace the chief, they are sooo wrong" yeah, weird dream

I had a dream that our band bus was speeding out of control. I think I actually shouted something like that in my sleep.
In addition, my band director or guard director constantly makes an appearance in my dreams.

I dreamed that solo/ensemble was being held on my neighbor's porch and that I forgot all my music and had to play pep band songs instead. It was so awful, and now I'm more nervous for s/e than ever.

oh man. One time I dreamt that some dude broke into my house and snapped all my reeds in half. TRAUMATIC I TELL YOU.
Woke up and ran straight to my reed case. Oboe players worst nightmare.

^I think I said this on the "you know you're an oboist when..." thread, but once, the night before a concert, of course, I dreamt that I opened my reed case and they were all in splinters. I did the same thing on awakening.

Holy fudge, Last night I had a really long band dream! I was playing my trumpet on the marching field with all the other band kids. I was the lead solo chick + SL so I was like this really super-stuck-up person. But for some reason my trumpet was too small and the mouthpiece was super-tiny, so I could hardly HOLD it... Then it turned into this stupid plastic camera so I cried very insanely, and ran to this place behind a supermarket to sweep this really tiny sidewalk for midgets! Then I found out that I was only second chair trumpet, so I got really P.O.'d but then I remembered that Brian, the SL, who I have a crush on, was really the first trumpet, and I immediately ran to him. (i think he was giving me little mind signals about where to find him) I wanted to marry him, so I came up to him and I wanted to say something but I couldn't! Then he kissed me and I fainted and then we had this wedding. But the wedding was full of trombones!! There were trombones everywhere and people were like swimming in the trombones and saying really retarded stuff like: "The trombones of life have arrived, so clip your toenails instead of eating bananas without ugly violins" or something like that. it was really retarded, and I literally woke up muttering something like, "Dude this is messed up"

I have a ton of band dreams! They all started back in 6th grade when I first joined band. We had band every Tuesday and Thursday. It was a Wednsday night and I had a dream that I was at school the next day and I had forgotton my clarinet! Needless to say, I freaked out when I woke up in the morning because, if I hadn't had that dream, I really would have forgotton it. I usually have dreams where nothing strange is happening, I'm just at band practice like any normal day. But the other night I had a dream where I was playing the French horn. I was playing it really well, but I remember thinking in my dream, "wait a minute...I don't know how to play the French horn!" Then I woke up and was extremely confused and disoriented for a few minutes.
