So a friend and I were sitting together in the concert arch on our trumpet sectional in band camp. To start off the day our director says to play a "concert f". Once he cuts us off i turn to my friend and we both have disgusted looks on our faces and......
me "oh wow!
davis"yeah"
me "that was bad"
davis "absolutely terrible"
me " that sound reminded me of the world cup"
davis "speaking of vuvuzelas i think you should buy us some vuvuzelas"
Band Director "Davis, Taylor. Be quiet."
Davis *whisper* " so will you buy us some vuvuzelas?"
later in the day our director was talking about our dynamic ranges and he says
We want you to play the ending note and knock the crowd over and hear them say *puts on a high pitched, womanly voice* They were sooo loud!!"
the comment altogether wasnt a kneeslapper, but his voice, the way he said it, and the normally serious attitude made it all quite humurous!
We were also able to get the guy who wrote our music for this year to come out to practice and he goes to rambling on about horn lines in DCI bands.
" A good horn section sounds great. A great horn section FEELS great! You don't hear the sound of a great horn section, you feel it. If you can be a great horn section people will throw babies at the field! (not even going to say some of the comments me and my friends made to each other) Right now your sound is like a lazer(laser, lasor,lazorz?), its going around and poking the crowd in the eyes, you need to be a hammer, and punch them in the gut with your sound!
so now me and davis have the best inside joke ever, as follows.
They were soooo loud!!! im going to throw my baby at the field as thanks for hammering me in the gut and not poking my eyes out!!!
