During band practice today my bd was changing some of the sets...
Trumpet: (about the sets) it like rearranging a face! DM/Trumpet: *to me* yeah like something you should do sometime Me: HEY! Trumpet: that was mean (i made him appologize after practice)
later.... Trumpet(different then the one above): *to SL* hey during band camp we should hold 20 pound medicine balls so when we have to hold up our trumpet it will seem like nothing Me: UHH if we do that it'll kill me Trumpet: *gladly* OKAY! Me: *gives him evil glare*

I have tetris on my cell phone. Note the sax in the quote has a trumpet Bf
Sax: But I want to play it during band class. Me: No, It'll get taken up and we'll have to run four laps. But you can play it on the band bus. Sax: No, You'll be playing it. Besides, I can entertain myself...
One of our clarinets was walking around the band room barefoot. Sax: Eew. S, put your socks on. Me: Socks are underwear for your feet.
The Sax mentioned in the last two quotes is very bad with spelling. We were playing hangman in creative writing. The puzzle was: H, your spelling sucks. Sax:* Goes to fill in sucks, which only had su_ _ s* Sax: *puts "u" in the third blank.*
Clarinet (which is a guy): Yep I'm fat. Me: Ya Your Mama's son is fat. Clarinet: Ya I know she is.
Dm: Ya, we all know clarinet mentioned above fantisises about the Vice principle. Clarinet: What about me. Me: Just say no. Clarinet: Since W told me to say no, I'll say yes Dm and Me *Laughs* Me: I knew that would work.

There were some interesting airgrams at the competition we went to yesterday...
"Dear [?], Do you know where your band hoodie is? Do a good job. Love mom"
"Dear [?], your PJs are on the bathroom floor. Love mom"
"dear [?], ah la la, ah la la, ah la la." (that one was funny to hear the announcer say that with a perfectly straight face)
"Dear [?], isn't it great that we're spending our 9 month anniversary at a band event? I love you. [?]"
After hearing all these, one of the alumni who's now brass instructor for the MB came up with his:
Him: When I'm a father and my kids are in band, I'm going to give them this airgram. 'Dear Timmy, don't suck, Love Dad.'

While waiting for our honors band audition, this one horn player from my school, Donny, had a HUGE bloody cut on his knee
Horn1: Oh My god, what happened to your knee? Donny: (with insane poker face) I was drop-kicked by a dear Horn2: A deer? Like the animal? Donny: yes Horn1: (completely serious) But you're too short. The deer would have kicked your face Donny: It was a short deer Horn3: I've always been scared of deer Me: Yes, theyre quite vicious around here
It was really only funny because everyone actually BELIEVED Donny (except me) because hes this tiny little asian kid whos better than the senior horn players, and because he has the best straight face in the world

Me: The evil pencil of doom. *Throws pencil* Trumpet: The evil computer monitor of doom! *Pretends to pick up computer monitor* Me: The Evil Dollar of Doom. Trumpet: Well, Come Sweet Death.
Me: We're going to have a 0-10 record and it's all the freshman's fault. Random freshman: Whatever. Me: No it's true. Ya'll been shouting '010 all year.
We scored 6 points in our game last game, but they came back fast. Me: We'll on the bright side, we're going to continue our perfect season.
