Band Tik Toks

I am a percussionist.
I do not own these Tik Toks.
I thought these where funny and don't know how to list the creators. I love these and I hope you do too.

I used to be a trumpet player in the 4th grade I didn't have an ego no one else in my trumpet class had a ego like what does trumpet player with an ego look like our class did have this one kid who didn't show up for any of the night time concerts or the ones at other schools like he only showed up once and that was the one day time consert at our school.

"Why is percussion hated so much? Even in my band it's like yall are against us" flashback to that one time we all decided it would be a good idea to throw all of the mallets at the base drum and sent a mallet sailing straight towards the band director as she walked though the door.😑😑😑 ... yes it did hit her, and yes we did break the drum.

[@esined2386]

nawh man percussion is awesome. If everyone heard the stuff percussion majors can pull of just on their own

[@esined2386]

I'd say all the instruments are important in order to make good music. Or, at the very least, the instruments you want to include into your music. Each of them are important. But percussion sets the beat, you're right about that. The pitch instruments signal certain parts and so on

[@shipwreckedhannah9345]

Clarinets aren’t weird *flashback to the Dallas trip when we bought 2 cases of mouton dew at the rest stop cause it was cheaper then ice cream. Then we got popcorn and hid both the sodas and popcorn from the directors*

[@beepboop8813]

Bro I have physically injured someone while beating with drumsticks so I agree with you

[@p1xt0_]

Devon Quarles me and my friend who also plays clarinet will take drumsticks and hit each other with it bc you have to sacrifice one of the woodwinds 😂😂

Percussion is absolute chaos. We just make noise for the sake of it, and that one saxophone is being yelled at by us because he's playing Wii music in our territory.

[@cassiebrenneman9673]

Fun fact: Back in 8th grade, I learned Megalovania on Sax. I played it a lot in Marching Band, so other people learned it either from listening to me or by looking it up. Eventually, one of the other altos played it during standby, and our director threatened to take the mouthpiece.

[@MOK-ns7ew]

As a percussionist I can confirm that everything is definitely our fault, but only because we get to play the least the whole class.

[@skippity4320]

That last one is the most relatable thing about the saxophone

[@clusterhug3808]

A list of some of the absurd things percussionists do - We hit our heads with mallets and laugh because it sounds hollow - We watch each other hold our breaths until our faces turn purple while the wind instruments do breathing exercises - We try to behead each other using four mallet grip - We named the guiro Bald Henry and we basically worship it - We once held an arm wrestling tournament in the middle of class and the director didn't notice until the last match

[@cactusjuice5936]

In my school band it was always the alto saxes that the band director had to yell at over and over for disrupting and being distracting.

[@Sean-xq9yd]

4:39 can confirm. Exactly like what playing saxophone is like. (I play tenor for anyone wondering)

[@banjexx3072]

as a trumpet player i can confirm that the whole entire trumpet section acts like a trumpet player and now im reconsidering my choice of choosing the trumpet and might change to a different instrument next year

0:48 You know what's weird... All the trumpet players (including me), except the only other girl (too focused on seeming "normal" and being in charge despite not having any leadership skills), we are all extremely nice and usually doesn't let anything like ego or trying to be the best player stop us from being extremely kind to everyone and not try and take the spotlight 24/7. That is the 2/3 Alto Sax's and one of the Clarinets.
