When you boil in the heat and freeze in the cold because of your uniform

Getting the Biggest Wedgie because of your Bibbers

And you can’t do anything about it

Losing your flip folder in the bleachers

And hearing it tragically hit the ground

Chipping Your Reed

Especially at a contest

Learning Drill

And the hazards of getting to your spot in time

Summer Band Odor permanently in the Band Hall

Learning visuals

Having a Cool Show

DCI Show goals

Going inside due to a heat advisory

Fearing for your life while standing on a wobbly bleacher

Cadences

And the dancing on the bleachers

Uniforms and Weather Conditions

If it's hot, you're baking. If it's cold, you're freezing.

The gloves and gauntlets Velcro problem

'Nuff Said

Rivalry Games

Aka a "Who Can Play/Perform Louder" contest.

The Senior Dog Pile

And watching your directors slowly being hunted down.

Practicing in the rain and having all the woodwinds panic
