I guess this goes here... Ok, so my school newspaper at the end of every year has a "You're so IHS if..." contest, where people submit things that make our school unique. Here was my favorite one: "You're so IHS if the band has more awards than the entire athletic department." And it's true, too, lol.

tuba: You know how when you're going to challedge someone you smack them across the face with a glove? me: *nods* tuba: We use mouthpieces here
tuba: *to me* You're the kind of person who pisses me off me: *tells that to tuba next to me* tuba2: That deserves a high five!
me + tuba2: *begin to gentlely hit tubas together like a fight* tuba: If you're going to fight do it right. (I think this is where he says the 1st quote but I don't know). And use tubas as swords tuba2: No tubas make better shields. *to me* Remember when we'd fight using our flute? hey! Flutes would make good swords! tuba: I think I like using my tuba as a battle axe better
tuba: Remember we have power over BD. If we do something that is really bad what's he gonna do kick us out? (Me and him being the only marching band tubas. tuba2 does mellophone)

at parade yesterday
me + tuba: *begin fighting with tubas*
during band today
tuba2: I challenge you to a dual *hits my tuba with hers* me: I accept *hits back in same fashion* tuba2: you dented my tuba! me: No I didn't I just hit it lightly and not there anyway
I can't remember if I posted this or not so:
tuba: *confiscates my anime magazine* me: *begins to make crying sounds I think* tuba: *puts magazine in folder and sits on folder* me: *halfheartedly pull on part of folder sticking out* tuba: be greatful it's in the folder. me: good point *still sulking*
End result: Eventually he gives it back to me and says that I went into withdrawl because I didn't have it.

Our director cheering on the football team at a game... BD: LET'S MAKE THIS GAME! I'M TIRED OF LOSING!!! A tenor player heckling opposing team members by making fun of their names... Tenor: Hey, Pauley! Pauley wanna cracker? ... Tenor: Hey, Cowsette! It looks like a cow sat on your face! After the game, when I couldn't find my sticks and went to tell the director they were missing... Me: [BD]? BD: Yeah? Me: Before I tell you this, do you promise not to hurt me? BD: What did you break?? After I managed to tell the director... BD: *shakes head* [Keyboard]... Me: I'M SORRY! BD: Now you're going to Hell. (He was kidding, but I still felt bad. ) After another bass drummer comes over with my sticks in her hand... Me: Yay! [Bass 1] has them! *runs to get sticks, runs back inside* I'm not going to Hell!

Section Leader as we are marching into the first football game.
Section Leader: "Everyone, as we're marching in put your left hand on your ovary...boys if you don't have one....GET ONE!"
----------------
BD:(before our first competiton): "Let's go out there show them crunk tight c-town is!"
Now, this is and old-fashioned 60-something year old white guy saying this....pretty funny! ;D

We had to march in a "post-season" parade yesterday, and since the seniors graduated, many of them didn't come back. It's a short parade and the band is usually considerably smaller. So, instead of 8 trombones, there were 4, and no seniors. I'm technically the oldest, so I had to lead the brass squad and be in the right corner.
Me: *to other girl trombone* See, I jinxed myself, now I have to be on the end! Girl trombone: Oh, you'll be fine. You're good at that sort of stuff. Me: True, I've been doing this forever. Other trombone: Here's how I see your performance today: not perfect. I'm gonna say you'll march... A minus. Me: Hey, we can't all be perfect, right? *parade starts; we just barely turn the corner* Me: *trips in humongous pothole* Other trombone, next to me: *snickers, at attention while marching* ... A minus. *keeps giggling* *later in the parade, luckily at the very end* Girl trombone: *drops slide* CLANG! Girl trombone: *laughs* Me: *to her* WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE GIRLS TODAY! A MINUS!

tuba: I'm staring at the puddle and thinking, trying to find away to light this torch (he seriously has one. it doesn't work though) ............. now I'm think of how to light the puddle on fire using nothing but the torch and the water. me: ummm....freeze it? tuba: no it would melt...... You just gave me a great idea. Make gasoline icecubes. I just need to get another freezer so I don't put it in my drink. I need to wait for winter though. Then I can put the gasoline on a lawn and after it freezes over night light it on fire.
tuba: And remember cat in chinese is Chi ken me: No it's not. someone told me it wasn't tuba: you asked? me: *telling him as I got off the bus* No. They just told me.

At marching practice
mbd: Okay band! Listen up! At the end, we're going to turn in four, stop, play, bend over, rise, then spread your legs and flare. band: Okay, that just sounds wrong.

Oh this is our director's quote to us. I don't think there has been a day last year that he didn't say this to us:
"Quit doing stupid things."

A couple of the senior guys in my band wrote down crazy quotes from my BDs all year. they're compiling a book to give them at the end of the year. My favorite: "I really hope you're not writing down all the stupid stuff we say."
When I get another chance to look at the book I'll post up more.

BD: [talking about cornets] and that was back when they were the jazz instrument...the EVIL jazz instrument.
^ I have NO idea what he meant...but it amused me. Apparently, since a cornet is similiar to a trumpet...I play THE EVIL INSTRUMENT! WE WILL OWN ALL! haha oh wow I need summer.
