___ ways to annoy your band director

[Takuya Kanbara]

Our band HAS to wear gloves, that doesn't work for us...

-When your instrument is in the shop, pester him about its location until you get it back.
-Distract the band by pretending to be a bird right before you begin to march your show during rehearsal.  

[LuckyDan]

When beginning to learn our positions for Marching Band, our band director uses a CD of the pieces to give us some idea as to what we're playing when we're marching. I've always wanted to switch the CD out with a highly embarassing one (Cher, mayhaps?) and have him accidentally play it.

xd I did that last year. Use techno, it throws off the ENTIRE band. It was soo funny. xd

Some of what we have are...

pretend you're a fire alarm during long measures of rest

sit on a pillow during class and say it channels your creative energy when he wants to take it away

eat candy... offer him a piece

Have a conversation with the walls, give them names, when questioned tell him that you can't trust the ceiling so he's being shunned.

Put signs that say "musical focus exits here" by all the exits or not exits

Give him presents, things like My little ponies and his very own fart machine!

Statement....the senior class when i was in 10th grade named all the sound blockers in the band room (they are big bumps on the wall that makes the sound stay in the room) there were like 30 of them with names like Glen and Adagio you name it, it was probly up there. pirate

dont know your steps
you claim you cant walk heel toe
your postures crappy
both your feet are not flat on the floor
you loose your music and say "someone stole my music!"
touching the Sike (big white wall behind you on the stage that is worth $15.000)

aw man. our drum section made 356 paper airplanes and dumped them all into his office (which is VERY small).

i think that would annoy any director....except ours. lol

This probably won't apply to your band director, but...

Ask him if you can decorate his bald head with your glittler glue.  

[Iasitni]

if your director's short, put the batons ontop of the chalk board

After I saw this, i totally asked my BD if I could. xd  

[Iasitni]

ask if you need to wear your plume for a game/parade.

if playing a rock/pop song sing instead of play (works wonders with bohemian rhapsody)

if you're a brass player and you frack a note, stop playing and start messing with your case, when asked what you're doing say you need to find a new reed.

get your entire section to turn their music upsidedown and play it.

pass around a plastic animal/figurine while playing, if the band director takes it get it back and have someone on the opposite side of the room hide it.

bring a lawnchair or kiddie pool to marching rehearsal and use it during breaks.

have waterguns with you at rehersal and use them liberally when given a water break

on an exposed part miss a sharp/flat/accidental. next time around have another person on that part miss it, repeat as many times as necessary

on a long stretch of repeating eighths alternate notes with others on the same part. continue to do this when he asks your part to play by yourselves.

write notes to each other on your music and don't erase them

have a notepad ready to write down the odd things he/she says during rehersal, then make a website of them all

set the dr. beat to the voice, on sixteenths (or some other odd rhythm) and as fast as it will go.

*i'll have more later when band camp starts

Skip instead of march.
Blow bubblegum bubbles when you're supposed to be playing.
