I was wondering, seeing is marching season is coming to a close, and I have spent the last 3 months watching Band Couples getting it on in the back of the bus, I pose this question:

Inner- Band dating is it cool? Yes or No, please explain why.

Id like to introduce my band to everyone cause I love them all so much and im sure you would too if you knew them (or if u spent as much time with them as I do).So Ill start and just so you know theyre are about 80 sumthin ppl in my band so Im describing them by sections in marching band:

Flutes: Pretty much all girls except for like 3 boys and theyre all bubbly and happy and small and kinda dorky together theyre annoying but individual theyre pretty nice.

Clarinets: The most stuck up section. All generally good looking (especially Kevin). They nice when you get to know them and all in all we all get along and defenetly the section that works the hardest (with little result though).

Saxaphones: Worst marchers, mostly newbies, mostly kinda lost all the time but no touble makers there the least popular marching section since they as a whole arent too much fun but I love em just the same.

Low Brass Section: they know how to have fun, generally hang out with other brass players and defenetly the best sidekicks for any occasion

Trumpets: Swear theyre the best but in a fun way and they loud and fun and really should learn what a triangle looks like lol.

Contras(Tubas): My section the best section in the world. Im the only girl and my section members kevin alejandro and matt are like my brothers and they rock although like real brother just as annoying.

Percussion: The funnest and best looking section mostly really good looking guys and sure maybe theyre not the best drun line in the world but without them the bus ride would be such a bore.

Well thats my band and maybe I didnt discribe them as accurately as someone else might but no matter how much I write I never do theyre awesomeness justice.

Note to fellow band geeks: Attempting to play My Heart Will Go On while having The Distillers - City Of Angels stuck in your head is a sure fire way to give yourself a headache.
Because I'm bored, I'm going to introduce the rest of my band, secretly, so they can't beat me up.

WOOOOOHOOOO!!! Finally my score has arrived!! First rehearsal was yesterday, it was awesome. The only thing is...the score is layed out in a really stupid way, there's two bars to a page so I'll be flipping the pages fast enough to cut myself. No wait, I already did that.
Despite the paper cuts, it's going to be an awesome show, by this I mean "Back to the Eighties - the Totally Awesome Musical". If you're going to be in the Toronto area (that's Toronto, Ontario) between December 1st and 4th, I recommend you grab some tickets. This is going to be the first ever performance in North America...until now it was done only in Australia.
Awrite then, as doubtful as I am that anybody would actually make it to the show...thought I would mention it.

Tell me a good band story (if you have one). At band camp, all the marching techs were working with the clarinets, because there are like 30 of them and most were freshman. This year I happened to be marching Bari and I was standing next to my friend who plays baritone and we got in to this weird conversation about butt plugs. So in the middle of the conversation our band director was like “ That is great you guys do that and all, but can we please work on drill?” I had to do like 50 push-ups.

What makes you so much more band geeky than the other band geeks? I am the only girl in the history of the school to ever play Bari Sax, I play in all 4 of the schools groups and I am a section leader

What do you want to accomplish with your music? If anything, I want to be a music history teacher in a university in England.

Favorite Song to Play? Africa by Robert Smith

Favorite Song to Listen To? At the moment “Famme like u”
