What I'm about to say totally doesn't involve me, but I feel it must be mentioned....

 

 

The #1 rule of Band: WHAT HAPPENS ON THE BAND BUS, STAYS ON THE BAND BUS! :lol:

 

As for band pervertedness (sp?), I've only had one personal incident: a non-band kid laughing at the fact that I carried a clarinet fingering chart, labeled "Fingering chart"...uh-huh, you get the point

wow things like "finger it while you wait" just don't even register in my head as dirty anymore lol and it should........ plus "stick more of it in your mouth" and "get that tongue workin"........ jeez theres actually alot of stuf that i don't notice anymore

Trombons:

 

If you cant get it right, try a new position!

 

Guys finger through your parts.

 

Oh yea and the "what happens on the band bus stays on the band bus this is soooo true".

and then on the back really big it says

 

"we dont finger, we dont blow, we just BANG BANG BANG"

Lmao, that's almost as bad as the tuba shirts two years ago. They had a whole chart of stuff.... It had vertical line of musical aspects and next to it a line of procedures to fix/adjust them.

Eg,

Tuning: Get the F in tune

Tuning: When in doubt, pull out

Posture: Assume the position

Tonguing: If all else fails, faster and harder

Tone: Raw is the best bet

 

And more... I can't remember all of them.

 

Oh, me and a fellow trumpeter were discussing tonguing techniques and we got into it about double and triple tonguing... suffice to say, reactions of outsiders were priceless. Especially the more 'proper' of the girls, lol.
