Once when we were heading back up to the school, someone turned on loud music from a car. A few seconds later I found that I was walking in time with the music, with my left foot on the downbeat. All subconsciously. (sp?)
And...when you point out anyone who's wearing a band shirt...and when you keep saying "Band concert tonight!" when there's a football game.

you know you're in marching band when
-when your favorite spongbob episode is the marching band one
-when the most amazing thing to you (besides yours instrument) is cold water
-when whenever your BD is critisizing how bad you are, he/she always tells you your as bad as your rival school
-when you have a rival school
-when you go over the drill in your head before you fall asleep to make sure you don't forget it
lol omg. these are so cool! i love making these type of lists! lol most of them apply too! haha

Nevira Shadowfire -You get annoyed when people in the hallway change the speed of their step when you're in step with them. -It is a tradition to get sugar high on Pixy Sticks before every football game. -You bring said Pixy Sticks before every football game to share with your section. -You make a nice profit selling said Pixy Sticks to other sections before every football game. -The said profit goes to purchasing more Pixy Sticks for the next game. -You don't get embarrassed or excited when someone takes off their uniform on the band bus after a concert. -You've watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off so many times even your BDs beg you to pick something different on band trips. -The band outshouts the seniors, juniors, smores, and frosh at every pep rally and you get upset when the spirit stick always goes to the seniors. -The band steals said spirit stick from the seniors. ...I think that'll do it for now...all these apply to me and our band... Pixy sticks.... the legal form of crack.

When you hear someone on the drumline say orgasm and know they're just talking about the climax of the music.
Maybe that's just my band...

you know you're in marching band when you are worried about your toe height when you're walking normal
you know you're in marching band when you walk at the tempo of any song you hear

1) You cut class to spend time in the band wing.
2) You find yourself traveling in herds of band geeks at all times of the day.
3) You and your friends will randomly begin singing the show tunes, any place, any time. (I always start us off, of course.)
5) You find that you're walking on the same foot as your friends through the hallways. (I make it so. If one of us is off, I fix myself. It looks and feels wrong otherwise.)
7) You get upset when the football team is using OUR field. (The marching band doesn't play at football games. We GRACIOUSLY allow football to be played at our outdoor concerts. That's OUR feild Damnit!)
8 ) You have very few friends outside of marching band.
10) You get annoyed when people use the phrase 'This one time at band camp...', when they have never actually been to band camp. (The next person that says that is going to get stuffed into a susaphone case and shoved down the stairs.)
12) When people call commands outside of band, you respond to them. (*clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* Band ten hut and HIT!)
15) You have enough food and clothing to survive for weeks in your locker. (My band locker is my home away from home.)
16) You argue with other teams that marching band is much more difficult than their sport. (I argue with the football team CONSTANTLY)
17) When you see marching bands in movies, you get excited. (Hell yes!)
18 ) You watch holiday parades to compare our band to their's. (We actually march those, so I know people are comparing their bands to mine.)
23) You start to sympathize with the Fiddler on the Roof cast.(I was part of the Fiddle on the Roof when my school did it last year as the musical. I was the fricken Fiddler, Hell yes!))
25) When you talk to people outside of band, they have no idea what you're saying. (It's so funny. I'll talk about the 3rd note in the last measure of the Meno Moso of the second song and I get looks like I'm speaking japanese xd )
26) You're way too comfortable with your sexuality. ((I'm Bisexual and I parade it around the band.))
27) You realize that even the flutes hate the flutes. ((I'm a flute player xd ))
28 ) You could do the same drill over for hours, and manage to do it worse than the time before. (It's never failed... sad )
34) Everyone in the music department knows who you are. (Hell yes they do.)
37) At competitions you know where the food stands are right away. (I pointed them out to one of my sophmore friends last night.)
38 ) You laugh at other bands that still have to wear their uniforms. (We were the only band that WASN'T still in uniform last night.)
39) Your have had a cheer-off with other bands. ((OMG we did that last night! We had our frist competiton of the season last night and we were sat between two other bands in the stands. It was HILARIOUS!!! Ice Cream Sandwhich!))

-You know you're in marching band(or concert band) when you count out the time signatures to random songs on the radio, other band's songs, etc. xd

-second place (in anything) is considered losing
-you only go to school for band
-the only reason your school has a new field is because of the band.

you are surrounded by a bunch of perverts that some how know how to play instruments.
you know what it means to pull a "john creekmer"(band specific)
at the games you wait for the drum line to play party boy so you can jump up and down and look like idiots.(band specific)
you laugh every time you hear "what do we do if it rains" and "omg get your eyes off the fricin' ground".
you have a special dance for every drum cadence
