Wow lucky. We wear tuxedo shirts and black pants for concert band and all black for jazz.

We need to be more original.

I'm getting kind of tired of the "ZOMG BAND GEEKS ARE SO AWESOME" kind of mentality. Its so bad at my school, fuckers that don't even play an instrument hang out in the band room becuse they think it gives them some kind of status.

We only have a few people who seem to do that.  Our school has more of a "Hey, the marching band exists and does better than the football team, but we'll support the football team twice as much!"

But our school district's administration is like, "We'll let the marching band go on trips to Florida every four years!"  Which was the best.  Sucks I only got to go as a freshman.

Every four years? We get to go every other year out of Canada somewhere. Every year the juniors go somewhere in Canada.

Fiddler on the Roof. I'm playing Mordcha the inkeeper.  :p

DA-DA-DAI DAI! DA-DA-DAI DAI!

As for social ridicule, the performance arts are a VERY large part of why our school district is so great, and rarely do we ever get picked on by jocks/jerks/preps/etc. They either just enjoy the productions or don't care.

Oh, and Choirs and bands.
Choir is pretty big, and takes part in big choir competitions by sending the best soprano, alto, tenor, and bass to an all-state choir or stuff. Took part in one, decided I wouldn't take part in future ones. Oh, and our choir takes annual trips to places to perform and enjoy stuff. Last year our choir went to Orlando, Florida to perform in and enjoy Disney World.
The band and orchestra also take part in this all-state thing. I'm a bit unclear about what they really do, since I'm not in the band/orchestra, but I do know they are very helpful since they supply EPIC music for our musicals and plays. As far as I know, we don't have a marching band. Seriously, who'd want to march through the streets of cold old northern NY on the edge of freakin' Canada?

I'm not really into these kinds of marching bands, but it turns out that my school's Marching Band is really good.

It's wierd. I remember having a class right above where the band practiced, and they sounded terrible. The drumline was especially wierd sounding. EVERYBODY in the room was annoyed.

Congrats to the Marching Lancers anyway I guess. I wouldn't give them too much praise. I have a bad history with the band geeks.
