The S.S. Marching Band

Just a blog about some of the crazy stuff that happens in a marching band. (Run by one of its members.)

Why do people always think that band students are responsible??? In my school all the band students are screaming and crying half of the class

You know those days where your tone is just… inexplicably good? Like you sit down and start running through some scales or something and the sound is just so full and warm and it doesn’t feel like your instrument is fighting you and you feel so in touch with the world… I live for those days

How to do instruments

Get an instrument

Decide whether it is a doot, bang, or skree instrument.

Doot, bang, or skree accordingly

Congratulation you did an instrument

Just senior things:

Being able to figure out what the band director is going to say based on how he starts a sentence.

I’ve finally hit the marching band jackpot...

My entire section picked up/ remembered marching on the first few tries. It’s a pre-band camp miracle.

You're all welcome for that education,

Band Director after explaining that versa vice is the same as vice versa.

Me: Wow, I've toughened up so much after all these years of band.

Also Me: Tired after moving for any amount of time, feet constantly in pain, honestly awful.
