all of these apply to my band not sure about others:
flute- bubbly girls very talkative most are popular or crazy
first clarinet- very smart hard working poeple that usually have a fun and whacky side
second clarinet- stupid unworthy slackers that only pretend to play or play so off key it screws everyone up
saxophones- all very different people that can be bipolar (me)
french horns- defination unavailable beacuse they do absolutely nothing
first trumpets- hard woking very talented slightly weird boys (or girls in other bands)
second trumpets- stupid boys that are mean to all people (except their fellows)
trombones- boys that could be good if they werent to busy with football

Chicken- The plumes that you put on your marching hat.
Bread Truck- A reference to spacing in marching positions (ex. Fix that gap you could drive a bread truck through it! or Spread out a bit, you'll be hit by a bread truck. [one of our band members actually almost got hit by a real bread truck on one band trip...after that we didn't know whether to laugh or to be scared])
Piccolo- A high pitched mini-flute designed to deafen other band members and be practically untuneable. (Q: How do you tune two piccolos? A: Shoot one.)
Clarinet- A wide-ranged woodwind instrument that PWNs all.
Trumpet- The instrument you don't want to sit near.
Arch- An unintentional nearly straight line.
Line- An unintentional arch.
High Step- A ridiculous horse trot like form of marching.
Train Song- The Great Locomotive Chase
Starting Together- Failure

Flute: a bunch of girls (and guys believed to be gay by most) who have nothing in their heads but hot air and do nothing but gossip all day.
(yes i just smacked my own section accross the face. so what. i hate it when they act like that)
Clarinets: a long wooden stick with a hole running through the middle, and are being fingered by people who never seem to play loud enough to satisfy the director(s).
Saxophones (all kinds): the wierdos. aka-pervs, idiots, and just plain strange. if you're normal, you're the odd ball out in that section, so that's an indication to get out if you dont' wanna be considered wierd. many of them are jerks.
Bass Clarinets: for some reason they laugh a lot...
Trumpets: donnot even realize that dynamic levels below forte exist. and some of them are strange, but most are cool in a wierd way.
Trombone/Baritone: smaller versions of the tuba (perverted side. the rest is cool).
Tuba: they try to act like they're the best and deserve praise just because they have the biggest instrument. they're perverted. are they trying to compensate for something...
Percussion: they can do anything with their hands/fingers. for some reason they seem to know how to play every song in existance on the piano.
Oboe/Bassoon: double-reed instruments rock!
Guard: the cheerleaders of the band. many of them are stuck up, but every once in a while you will find someone who's miraculously not. it is believed that any guy who enters Color Guard is majorly gay.
