bossman Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I think there are some things you just don't do when it comes to band behavior. Thou shall not wear marching shoes to the prom. Thou shall not wear concert uniform outside of a concert. Thou shall not speak in sightreading. Thou shall not fake a heat stroke to miss marching rehearsal. Quote
Danpod Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Thou shalt not hog the water cooler. Thou shalt not breathe during retreat. Thou shalt not have thy shoes cleaned more than once during warm-up. Thou shalt not covet thy Drum Major's podium. Thou shalt not consume food while playing. Thou shalt not commit a Horn Job (Placing a concert tuba, bell down, on someone's crotch and playing it) Quote

ClarinetGlissandoInBlue Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 Thou shalt not tune out the almighty "Met" Thou shalt not dry clean the un-dry cleanable parts of your uniform Thou shalt not collapse in fatigue after a performance Quote

BassoonPadwan Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 Thou shall not eat in uniform Thou shall not poor water down the mouth piece of a brass players instrument when they get up to use the restroom when sitting in the stands. Thou shall not rip off somebody else's gauntlet while they are wearing it, and throw it on the floor. Thou shall not give a *sigh* of exasperation, and moan and groan when the director says, "Ok, let's run that from the top". Thou shall not EVER walk to set when a director says, "Go to set 32". Thou shall not be low energy during marching band, no matter how tired. Thou shall respect every other band. Thou shall not put GATORADE in your water jug instead of water.lol Quote
