Thou shalt not throw things in the band room. EVER.
Thou shalt not use any percussion instrumants as tables, lest the percussionists eat you.
The band room is not your bedroom-Thou shalt not leave thy stuff in the band room, lest it be thrown away (exceptions are instruments).
Thou shalt not touch the electric keyboard. Only two people are allowed to touch it, and you are not one of them.
Thou shalt not play on the mallet instruments or drums unless thou art in Drumline, fall or Winter, or thou art in the percussion section of concert band.
Thou shalt obey thy section leaders, Drum Majors, Instructors, and Band Directors, or thou shalt not be in band.
That's all I can think of for now.

DiddleFreak61387 Thou shalt not mock the cheerleaders when they are doing the dances to the songs the band is playing. Lol, our colorguard made up the dances that the cheerleaders do! They copied us! Ok, some more commandments... Thou shalt always give thy empty reed cases to the Tenor Sax section leader! (I collect them, don't ask) Thou shalt make a sacrifice to the Sax god before and after each performance! Thou shalt not mock the Tenor Saxes, we're more saxy than thou will ever be.
