its hard not to be a band geek when you march because you spend so much time with it. for us, we start practicing and go to band camp in july, and then we conistantly have practice until october or november, depending on when the football games and compeitions fall

haha we have a blogring called band geeks united. its mostly just for my school though, but some other people have joined too now

nope im not in the band in school but i sort of am a room band with a friend of mine

[xsweetxcandyx]

You traitor!! lol..jk

[*tweeak*]

i couldnt be in chorus if i wanted to, because i dont have time to take the classes i want to or have to take

i originally intended to drop band after this year, because this spring we go to new york, but then i realized that without band i would have no friends, no life, and nothing to do, so ill stay

i got moved up to the better band class! second to last chair, but oh well

[lilJdawg]

I'm not in band but i think it's cool. i wanted to join but i was too late.

[*tweeak*]

yeah...it kind of helps to know an instrument

today the top band got to miss school for their janfest performance, so all these stupid kids in my spanish class were saying "oh, i wanted to join band, but they said i couldnt today hahahahaha" thatkid is such an idiot. and not nearly as funny as his idiotic friends give him credit for

Our band was the first school in our district to make STATE FINALSS! Yaaaaaaaay ! T.T But marching band season is over for uss.. *sniff

[softball_moose]

I am a HUGE band geek. Band is my LIFE! Woot Woot! When band camp takes up almost a month and a half of your summer, then you will know what I am talking about, and when you have to stand out in 20 degree weather over fall break working on the competition show for marching band, then you can say you are a band geek. I mean, I even have special gloves that have the fingers cut off so that I can play and march during practice so my fingers dont get cold, and they arent normal uniform gloves either. So, yeah. I'm a band geek. I talk non-stop about band! Yeah! It's awesome!!! But, I don't have AIM or anything like that so. Yeah. BYE!!!!!!!!

[*tweeak*]

hooray for band geeks!!

yeah, im not allowed on IM... (which is not allowed to say im allowed on here either, but thats differetnt)

[xsweetxcandyx]

^^ i see

yes colorguard counts because they make the band effects.

i love band

o nikki remember how we used to make fun of the small bands? well my firends moved to ohio and hes in an A band...it was really tiny! almost the whole field was filled with props... i saw them marching and i couldn't stop laught

btw..nikki.. did you get your lettermen yet?

[*tweeak*]

i did indeed. i feel dorky wearing it though. im so anti-school spirit...

small bands are funny. really, they are. especially when they have no colorguard. or when the colorguard if parthically awful. i the worst guards (or lack there ofs) at brookwood. (we soo shouldve gotten 3rd or at least 4th at that competition )

someone voted in my band topic and bumped it, and then no one posted so it just died and i couldnt save it, as it was the last one to post already. dont torment me like that

[jnukes]

well .. i don't call myself a band geek ..

i play alto/tenor saxaphone .. i'm in tha 'better band period' band [[only 8th grade.. ]] .. and i'm in jazz band i got a passion for dat .. haha ..yea ..

[xumop apisdnx]

band geeks are the raddest fools in school.

i play clarinet for concert, marching, and county band and tenor sax for jazz band (me and my friend have to transpose trombone parts because there's only 1 good trombone in the band >.<). my name's julia, i go to bhms in pennsylvania, and my sn is melon x farmer.

we got our jazz band uniforms today (clip-on bow tie and strap-on vest xP) and me and my friend wore the bow ties all day to show our jazz band pride x)

[*tweeak*]

were getting new marching uniforms for next year. i saw them! but theres some disavantages compared to our old ones

[xsweetxcandyx]

sry i let his dies... i was banned form going online...

guess what nikki... i et one more chance to marching a parade!!!!
my band is going to march the chinese new years parade in san franciso during presidents day weekend!!

how aweomse is that... i missed my purple uniform... purple shaikos... black and gold pooms.... balck dinklie barnd marching shoes... o how i enjoy marching// ha ha

we're gonna be on some canto cable network.... ha ha... can't wait!!!!


we must keep this topic going!!

[*tweeak*]

oooh thats fun! the only parades we did this year were the homecoming parade (downtown norcross, of which there isnt much to speak of). it took about 3 minutes after school. what a complete waste of time driving over there. then one saturday morning we had a slightly bigger fall festival parade we have every year. still pointless, but at least a bit longer. another waste of time though, because right after that we had to go to a competition.

were getting new uniforms. im going to miss the old ones. the new ones have some flaws. like the stipe thingy i detatchable, so itlle be annoying and come up like parkviews. and they dont have capes. i like our capes :[

also, our band is supposed to be huge next year. in comparison at least. we have like 140 now, but next year were supposed to have like 200, because the recruitment process is going better than usual

[*mishyerr*]

OMG. Band boys in their uniforms are SOO HOTTT...... *Drool* Don't you think its so cute? To see this dude in a hot uniform marching around with an instrument?

Orr maybe I'm just too obsessed with band.. MARCHING SEASON IS OVER.. I STILL CANT GET OVER IT.. T.T

we did a parade once.. it was cool. we marched around horse poop.. the flutes were right behind the us (the guard). but yeah. it was GREAT! marching in the middle of the street for 4 hours while little kids waved and smiled at us. ^^

[*tweeak*]

hehehe its funny to watch the guys stick their hands down their uniform bands to get their money out (the pockets are in a stupid place)

[xGlovex]

noo never. im not a band geek. im popular + im sexy.
and im gonna stay that way

[*tweeak*]

good grief thats ridiculously shallow


i hate people

[xsweetxcandyx]

i'm popular too.... gosh... how shallow...

if you think about it, only the wannabes won't admit who they really are.. (prolly just trying to be cool)

omg.. i want capes for my uniforms... capes look fun!
my uniform is soo plain... but i don't mind

can't wait for the parade.. if only we did the rose pararde =/

[*lolita kitty*]

nope, not in band

[*tweeak*]

i mean, i guess they didnt like the capes because they couldnt let us take them home, so we had to reattach them every time, like the plumes, but still. they make nice scarves in the stands...

also, our new plumes are funny looking

Not in band, but I got an acceptance to be in one in...5th grade? While entering middle school.

[cellardoor979]

AHHH, band geeks!!! Naw, just kidding. I'm not in the band, but a bunch of my friends are. Although, the band hallway does have some problems. People laying accross the floor, others humming and cutting up pictures (its true!), the lights flicker, and there is always somebody going into their lockers cause the school didn't give the band people locks, they have to buy 'em. It's always an adventure goin' into that hallway...

[*tyedyefroggy*]

Haha, this is so me. Jazz band, Marching band, Concert band, Drum line, Orchestra, Wind Symphony....mann....Im such a loser lol

name: Courtney

no aim. xD

I play the Alto Saxophone and Xylophone.

[xsweetxcandyx]

^ I believe I'm in love with you...lol

Aren't there any more flutes here???!?? or French Horns =]

Still I want capes!!! Nikki all i can think about is capes now, thanks a lot jk.

Concert Band is so boring. I didn't make Wind Symphony so I haven't done any concerts yet, while they do one a month with new music each time. Well hopefully I can make the Symphonic Band, not just plain concert band that doesn't get to do anything.

Remember to keep this topic going!

[*tweeak*]

i am so happy i moved up from concert to symphonic, because concert was unbelievably awful

our wind symphony is fabulous though

[xsweetxcandyx]

Same here, ours went to China last year.

I really do miss marching band...I think i had too much fun during the season=]

Seriously which is more fun Marching or Concert?

[opiumphog]

I'm not a band geek but most of my friends are in the Swain marching band and I know the entire band...even though there's max 50 people in there.
I've had two best friends who play trumpet and I almost joined the colorguard.
Band geeks are f***ing awesome! WOO!
I have been snuck into many band oriented places...

[*tweeak*]

eh? like what how? because its kind of hard to blend in a bunch of kids in uniform...

[katiedotcom]

i'm in our school choir.. and i used to play clarinet

our marching band rocks the socks off YOUR band :P

so does the choir

[xsweetxcandyx]

OK first of all.... my Marching band came in second in the SoCal comps.. right behind El Dorado who did the Rose Parade so unless you go there... you have zero right to clain that your band is better. PLus Our choir is one of the best in the Nation, we've gotton so many awards its not funny. so there =D

If you wear the same colors as them you might be able to blend... =]

[*tweeak*]

ok, well, were not on the national level, and were not even amoung best in state, about amoung the second rank, but were still quite good compared to a large amount of bands in and out of state

[Mireh]

<------- ex band geek

[*tweeak*]

[xsweetxcandyx]

i just realized that every state has different regulations about the marching band.... they need to make it a national thing

[IHeartEmoBoyz]

Ha ha :]
Im wouldn't say I'm a band geek.. But I'm in band. o.O
I play the flute and percussion.

[*tweeak*]

what kind of regulations are you referring to? if you do BOA, then you have to adhere to national standards because theyre national competitions

[easilyboredguh]

Hi~ My name is Gloria, I play the trumpet in my Wind Ensemble, Marching Band and Jazz Band. Out of all of them, I prolly like Marching Band the best. Just the competitions and knowing the fact that these ppl have seen u at ur worst, they're almost like a family. Our school band program is pretty small, our marching band only had like 50 ppl last season and our Wind Ensemble (our highest band) is juss a little bit smaller than that. But we have like one of the best band program in the state though because our school got remodeled and so all the school instruments are new, the band room is new, just everything band related is new.

[xsweetxcandyx]

I want new band stuff too!! =]

O and I was talking about how each state has different Band assocaitions. Like in California there is a N. Cali and So. Cal branch and they're slightly different and well each state is kindda like that right?

[*tweeak*]

were getting...some new stuff. i think we have new tubas coming. not to mention the uniforms.

georgia isnt divided like that, and not just because of it being a good deal smaller (although that may play a roll). we dont have curcuits. until i started taking to people online, i didnt know what curcuits were, or even tbat they existed. weve competed against bands from various places in GA and some from tennessee, alabama, and south carolina. we still all follow the same guidelines or whatever...

[xsweetxcandyx]

well idk, i just know it that the states rules differ from eachother, but its all minor details.

My band always get new instruments but like, i want actually new things like front essmeble stuff and uniforms too..lol

my school's uniforms are soo simply..=\

[*tweeak*]

our uniforms were very simple, extremely in fact, but the new ones are white on one side and black on the other so theyre supposed to "pop" when we turn around. yeah, i dont know. and we have gauntlets (i think thats what theyre called) now.

people have been very anti-band the past 2 days and its pissing me off

[xsweetxcandyx]

anti band people are evil...

I really have nothing interesting to add right now...

[*tweeak*]

yeah, they were talking about how the only useful band instrument was percussion because you can use it in a "real band." another guy said the only useful instruments period are the guitar, piano, and drums. i hate you, i hate you all. it was funny that both these very different people said practically the same thing at completely different times. they hate each other to, so it was fun to inform scott that he sounded just like kirk...teehee
