[@TheChicanoMechainc]

Tbh my school (7th) band is shit and an not even lying or exaggerating tbh we stay out of order alot the only two people who are good is me and this clarinet player and we both played for the same amount of time

[@devon6236]

Me: Are you serious? There are no rivalries in the percussion section! Also me: Gregory can't play anything he's so bad.

Thanks for liking my comment! :)

[@wesleymiller8661]

It’s true, there’s not as many rivalries and much more cultism.

[@EnergeticSpark63]

Im in percussion, and percussion literally just gets to chill and play on their laptops or phones while everyone else is doing fingerings and slide motions.

[@kenzie71204]

The rivals😂 “I’m first chair and you’re not” 😂😂

[@Roman-rx2tm]

So true. I’m first chair and the other saxophone is so jealous cuz I played for 5 months and she played for a year and a half. Practice makes perfect

[@vmprie]

I love how you put trumpet as the one that plays too loud and saxophone as the one that's to quiet. It's almost always the other way around.

[@vtwiizyy922]

Jarrick Hillery trumpets always start blasting air into their horns and sax just sit there quiet

Not in my band. We have 7 loud trumpets and 3 normal sounding Altos and 2 tenors, one loud. I just wish the trumpets weren't so loud

[@chahahgvdkwnndjxachoo1482]

[@oddgryffin]

the one who plays too loudly is the saxophone who sits DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. he never stops playing. even when my director is talking, he's blowing into his saxophone, "whispering" (as i like to call it) some notes. he's also really annoying and blames the flutes for not playing loud enough when the saxophones drown us out lol

[@forest6522]

"My pinky hurts" - basically every single trumpet player in the band

[@august_geek]

that part with someone playing "A Whole New World" from Aladdin is reminding me of when there was this one kid in my band class who had that as his "theme song" and whenever the class asked the band director to play it, he usually would so that was fun

I can relate so much to the ones who play too loud, and too quiet. I am CURRENTLY an Alto Saxophone player and I sit by the loudest person in the band. And I can relate because we only have about 15 people, and 2 low brass people, they are way too quiet, surprisingly they are Trombones though, this is why I will be switching to Tuba.

[@SarasotaFireBuff]

last but not least: *the one thats always late and falls over every single instrument thats on the ground*

[@ahiggs660]

omg i’m a high school flute and it annoys me soooo much when flutes aren’t taught to hold their flute level so that it’s not leaning down or to far up. our band director used to stick pencils in the end and if it fell out then you had to hold it higher. it’s also especially important during marching because if it is down you do not look as good. i understand that not everyone is at the same level as my high school but it is something that should be taught when you first start flute cause if you aren’t in the right position then you can’t play as well and it does not look good. sorry for going on this rant but it needs to be said lol

[@awkwardmoments1539]
