4 letter words will go no further than the idiots you say them to.
Just ignore them. Music can take you anywhere you dream to go.

I kind of understand what you're going through. I went through it as a freshman. Until we made State Contest and our football team didn't make the play-offs again. I still go through it too... not as much as I did however, the administration is starting to understand and care more. But the student body, not so much. I personally think it's because the members of my band don't take it seriously, and they also make fun of it too "Be Cool" but it doesn't help any. We're really young this year though. Which doesn't help anything because the freshmen and sophomores haven't yet to understand that they already fit in with a certain group of people and they don't need to be popular. So, yeah, I know what you're feeling.

I understand band pride and all but try not to get into fights about it.You may feel like your sticking up for them but if most people around are against you, you make the band look like nutters( we are) and you wont gain any respect.Just do your thing and work hard, you represent the band so don't act in a way you don't want them to think of the band as.The best revenge is living well.

Wow! I never thought of this the way you put it. Thanks for everything. I guess I just want people to stop so badly that I would do anything to stop it. It is getting better. Things in the band with certain people are not going well, but we will survive.

Yeah I agree with you Hansel. But for me, people don't make fun of me for being in band because I give them the "evil death stare" and they never make fun of band again. At least not to my face. I've certainly made a lot of enemies by doing this, but they are insulting something that I love very much! If someone insults the band then they are insulting me and I get really ticked when people do that.
