 *raises hand*  Band geek here too, from 5th grade through 10th.  Flute and Clarinet.  I was even geeky enough to join the marching band for 2 years.  I loved it though, *sigh* I wish I had continued on in my junior and senior years too. Oh, we had to be in marching band if we wanted to be in the regular band. I was enough of a geek that I was a squad leader junior year, when normally only seniors were squad leaders. We had to wear polyester uniforms and hats with big ol' phallic plumes on them. I was in band from 5th through 12th grade, then I did 2 years of the orchestra for non-music majors in college. I should pick it up again. I need a new flute though. |

 My flute is in desperate need of repair too. I hated those polyester uniforms, itchy and very hot.  I hope to get a saxophone one day and learn to play it just because I want to.  I love learning to play new instruments.  Stupid me sold my clarinet years ago and want to get another one, someday. |

 Wow.. Miss Angelica is back   --- I was never in the school band but I wanted to be.. unfortunately for me, my family was too po'broke at the time for me to pursue it.  My friends were all band nerds so I was a band nerd by association and got treated like one.  Yeah, junior high was a really great time.   :lol: |

 We had an extremely lazy band instructor, so we didn't get to have band camp   . |

 I can't even sing. That's how musically challenged I am.
 I sit at my friends baby grand piano and pretend I'm Nick Cave.
 
 Then I get attacked by their dog.
 
 
 I hated my school. It was an all girls catholic school and I used to get thrown out of religion class all the time.
 ..and music class.
 
 
 Wow. Miss Angelica smiled at me  :oops:   :lol:

 Most of my friends are in the band and choir (sp?) I always snigger when they tell me they had soooo much fun at band camp :twisted: 
 
 
 
 I've heard stories about what people do with their flutes at band camp :roll: But they're probably just stories.

 I so love threads like this. :mrgreen: They're perfect to play a lil' relaxing game in the middle of a workday: you go and read the first message, then jump straight to the last one and try to come up with a chain of events that lead from 'wah it's broken' to school bands. :mrgreen: |

 I was a choir girl. No really, I was. First soprano even.
 Of course, I was also the resident "goth chick"(tm), so I think I had notoriety for that, and less for the singing. Poo.

 I played the tenor sax for a year before the band teacher's kid tried to strangle me, and after a teacher saw the bruises on my neck, the band teacher basically would verbally abuse me. Then, his kid went on to hit a friend of mine (who is a girl) Rylie. Who the fuck hits a girl? |

Bet she was a card    :twisted: |

 This reminds me, when I was a teen...you know, all EMO and stuff, I used to save my tears in a bottle. *snort*
 I found it a couple years ago. BOY oh boy did that thing smell BAD.
 
 I just threw up in my mouth a little - srsly.  :!: Hehe. You know why it smelled so bad? Because, in addition to all the bacteria that has been incubating in that bottle, tears are diluted urine.  :twisted:  BTW, I was in the choir, I'm (or at least was ) a soprano too, and I took piano lessons for almost 10 years. Edit: Plum! Ohmigosh! :shock:  I've missed you. And seeing your avatar still cracks me up.  Post MOAR!Edited to fix the quotes. |
