Welcome to Gaia! ::

Our tuba used to play the Imperal march when we were losign bad. man the stares we got at that last game. if we had onme we would have finally gone tro playoffs. Also if you are behinde the goal posts (cant remebeer name ) try and catch footballs it the tubas. And if fog or mist builds up on said tuba write stupid stuff on it

You get someone to turn off all the lights and then everyone starts screaming.

When you walk into the class, grab the remote for the speakers/CD/Cassette player that your teacher has and at any random moment while she/he is speaking, turn them on.

Rest your feet on the stands.

Have your headphones on and play to those notes, not to the notes of your music during your solo.

Argue about your parts/notes.

I think this one is only Oboe specific, but my senior Oboist did this once and nearly killed the band. During any form of silence, rest, BD leaves room, special section attention, etc. have the Oboe play high G, it really hurts. I tried it once and wow, the bassoons wanted to kill me, but it is fun! Though I have since forgotten the fingering for the highest G its on the net somewhere. *searches* xd

when spelling words on the field, misspell them and make them dirty....

example: "ET PHONE HOME" ---> "ET PHONE HOMO"

he totally blew up.....

but i cant annoy him.....my friend and i were skipping around him, laughing really loud, and we jumped in front of him and asked "OMG ARE WE TOURISTS YET?????? HUH???? ARE WE??????" and hes like

"yes you are. very good."

and we were like " neutral wtf?"

Once, we had talked way tpp much while our BD was tried toc onduct so he gave up, threw a chair and his stick and made us do theory sheets that were worth 50% of our mark.

Mind you, accoring to him, everything is worth 50%.

Anyway, so, when he asked us to write our names on the theory booklets sheet things, you had to write your first and last name and your grade. Mine ended up looking like this.

Name: Billie Joe Armstrong.
Grade: 8Weed.

I threw it in the pile along with everyone elses and BD almost shat himself when he saw it. He gave us a lecture and had the principal come in and she yelled at us. Me, being a dummer (Percussion) sit in the back and my friends and I were killing ourselves laughing. No one ever found out it was me.

: ) When I was a freshman, some guys tried serenading the director at his cabin, at like 2 in the morning

turns out he was already awake, and getting read... yeah i know

and came out with his shirt off : o



Yeah, and we had to write essays once on why we're in band

One of my friends put:
Because it's a class where I don't have to write essays

Another guy had:
Playing tuba pleases Thor, the thunder god!

But mine, was something like:
When the green power ranger played his dagger-piccolo thing, the dragon zord came out of the bay and destroyed all the warehouses, every time. You have no idea how much the dragon zord pwns.

I also emptied my spit valve over his stool after every jazz band practice towards the end. : )

If only I played brass! : )

xd
lol, we've done that too. Once we even dared a bass drummer to yell 'OOOH, OH BABY!! YEAH, THERE YOU GO!' during a concert. Needless to say, he did it, and made $50. omg, the BD was so pissed...
