WELCOME TO THE BLACK PARADE

when ur marching in a parade and sweat drips into ur eyes: this is it this is the end

So after a football game our band was messing around while some people were loading the trailer to leave. This random guy comes up to me from the other band and says "heres a token of my appreciation" and hands me a literal token??

Houses as Things My Marching Band Director Has Said

Gryffindor: "Homecoming is mandatory - no, let me be politically correct. Personatory. Not man, not woman, person."

Hufflepuff: "Football games are a non-thing where I let you relax, but I don't want them to be a non non-thing where you all don't even show up."

Ravenclaw: "I don't even have a music degree, I have a refrigeration and air conditioning degree."

Slytherin: "I'm only doing this to annoy [the other band director]. I come here every day just like you, I want to be entertained too."

"Of course I'm a good kisser, I'm a trumpet player"

So we started marching band rehearsals today and we now allowed 6th graders to march because our band is small. Well, as soon as one of the sixth graders looked at "America's Finest" he started crying. I didn't know what to do and just told him it was gonna be okay...

Yes.

Do trumpet players naturally have an ego before playing trumpet, or does always having the main melody of a song give trumpetists their ego?
