#school band

[ash-the-fluffy-cat]

So I met a teacher that im gonna have next year today, he came to tell my class what high school band is like and he couldn’t decide to call me a boy or girl when I raised my hand to ask a question so he was like “Boy….girl… TUBA in the back” so I guess my gender is now tuba

Things you'll only hear people say in band (all from the 2023-24 school year)

"Okay, but like, what if all the seniors died?" (band director [🏃‍♀️])

"This sounds like something they'd play in Hobby Lobby" (first chair clarinet)

"Do you ever think about what it would be like to be bald?" (drum major #1)

""Let's be the next Troy Bolton, guys!!" (a sophmore clarinet)

"MORE TROMBONE??" (drum major #2 [❄️])

"Tell the hamburger to make sure he's in line!" (band director)

"SaLiVa." (drum major #3 [🎻])

*slapping a music stand* "Flick it harder!!!" (same as previous quote)

"You look like Jake from State Farm" (drum major #1 to drum major #3)

"Hi, I'm [❄️], and the last time I cried was two days ago!" (drum major #2)

"Maybe I'm the one falling down the stairs" (same as previous quote)

feel free to rb with quotes from ur band!! :))

I was in the school band for some reason, and was forced to play both tuba and a bass drum, and carry them around constantly. I woke up and slammed my head into the wall because it was closer than I thought.

Being an MHA fan AND a band kid is CRAZY because the amount of bad reputation both get online is hilarious, like- we are NOT as bad as the internet makes us seem 💀

March 1959 - Freddie Mercury Story!

India - Farrokh Bulsara formed the school band, 'The Hectics', the first band

👉 'Freddie Mercury was a prodigy': Rock star's Panchgani school bandmates remember 'Bucky'

Sep 05, 2016, Scroll.in, by Anvar Alikhan

Freddie Mercury is considered to have been one of the most flamboyant showmen in rock ’n’ roll history. Were there any early signs of that in his performances with the Hectics?

Victory Rana: Freddie was very shy, but once he started playing his piano, he became a completely different person. But I don’t remember him as being any kind of showman – not at that age, anyway.

Subash Shah: Yes, Freddie was very shy. But he was also “a born show-off”, and his entire personality would transform once he was performing. To give you one example: one evening, as teenagers, we were walking on a beach in Zanzibar. Music was playing and Freddie spontaneously started to do the twist, the popular dance move of the time. It was such a mesmerising performance that the next thing we knew was that a group of conservative local girls, wearing burqas, had formed a circle around Freddie and began to twist with him. That was the power of his showmanship, even back then.

Did he display any signs of future greatness back then? Any indications of the shape of things to come?

Victory Rana: To be quite frank, no. Yes, Freddie had a lot of talent, and he was very passionate about his piano playing. But who could say, based on that, that he’d grow up to be the megastar that he became?

Farang Irani: His parents were good solid middle-class Parsis with middle-class values. His father was an accountant in Zanzibar, and he wanted Freddie to become an accountant or a lawyer
