you know you're a band geek when you don't get mad because you were cut off in the halls of school, but because they made you out of step

you know that the trumpets, when they are together, are some of the dumbest people you will ever meet, but if you are lucky enough to catch one on there own, you will be suprised at there intelligance
I told this to my friends and they all seemed to agree very heartily
then they nearly pantsed me in front of my crush... Good times

-You memorize your show music the day you get it.
-Your band has an intense loathing of flip folders and anyone who uses a flip folder at any time (even if it's another band) is immediately ostracized and usually drastic action is taken against said flip folder user.
-The band always gets the best seats in the house at football games until the football team actually starts winning.
-Your sock drawer only has black socks.
-When marching season is over, your life feels empty.
-The day after marching season ends, you begin asking the BD every day, "Do you have our next show yet? Do you have our next show yet?"
-You don't understand why it takes the freshmen so long to memorize the fight song, especially when it's a mockup of the fight song of the university right down the street.
-You have fun at marching contests.
-All of your summer vacation plans circulate around band camp.

You know You're an MB Geek when...
...you read these lists instead of doing homework for other classes
...you play your instrument while typing at the computer(which I'm doing now with my trombone xd )
...you go to the MB thread even when MB season is over(said thing is too true)
...you are tired of the concert thread and wish for MB all year round
...when you started out with one reason posted and you edited said post to put down more reasons
...and you add more every time you think about it
...most of your pics are of band kidds
...and you just keep adding more reasons even if you run out
...you complain if you don't have at least one band conversation every 20 mins
...you know who Mark Chandler is and why he's the reason we got now uniforms xd (band related, PM if ya wanna know)
...you know who Mat Murphy was and why its bad/good to know him (band related)

fatcheehcs 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. No kidding... Our flute section is obsessed with Pixy Sticks. As a member of the brass section we usually refer to the flutes as poodles.

You know you're a band geek
........when all the band room doors and practice room doors are covered with past band member's names.
....... when you know who's dating, how long they've been dating, how many other people they've dated, and who they are going to date once they've broken up.
........ when the only people on your friends list on myspace are other band members
........when you start harmonizing with microwaves, fans, and vacuums

if you've ever wanted to frame your music from previous shows.
if you reffur to the DM as Hitler, Wicked Witch of the West, or the villan of that year's show movie.
if you know all of your BD's childhood stories
if Starwars Meant anything musically to you ((our BD's fave movie))
If you want to kill the person who composed Wizard of Oz music
if you have nightmares of a scarecrow killing you to the soundtrack of your wizard of Oz show.
if you still remember your first show music and drills
if you wish trombones could be lighter
if you can lift a suzaphone
if you came up with the idea for this year's show ((me!))
and finaly...
IF YOU'VE EVER THOUGHT OF SAVEING YOUR SPIT IN A JAR, JUST IN CASE YOU NEEDED IT FOR REVENGE!

You know you're a band nerd when you've thought about using chapstick on your instrument but decided not to because you were afraid it would ruin you precious instrument.
