Band Sections expectation vs. reality
Flutes expectation: A bunch of girls who talk about the cute boys in the percussion section
Flutes reality: A bunch of girls who try to kill each other over first chair, the one guy in the section just plays Zelda songs all the time.
Clarinets expectation: Kinda the nerdy quiet people.
Clarinets reality: They're still quiet, but because they talking shit the whole time.
Saxophone expectation: Idiots playing sexy sax man thing all the time.
Saxophone reality: Idiots playing sexy sax man thing AND the epic sax man solo
Oboe expectation: Dorky kid who takes 6 AP classes.
Oboe Reality: Out of tune dork who takes 6 AP classes, overall really nice people. Trust the oboe with your life, just not with intonation.
Bassoon expectations: Probably plays DnD and hangs out with the saxophones.
Bassoon reality: Plays DnD with the low brass.
Low Brass expectation: The foundation of the band so they have to be put together
Low brass reality: wrong. Mix of nerds and stoners, generally pretty funny.
Horns expectation: plays great, never heard them play a wrong note. Quiet, keeps to themselves, no ego.
Horns reality: Stopped playing after the first 10 bars of only upbeats, plays what the trumpets have because they want melody. Biggest egos in the band, but keeps it on the DL
Trumpets expectation: Plays crazy high notes, giant egos.
Trumpets reality: attempts high notes, fails, thinks they got it, flaunts that they got that note. (no one believes them)
Percussionist expectation: snare rolls, lady killers, sunglasses emoji.
Percussionist reality: Was the director talking to us? no? okay cool, so got any 5's?
