Where were you Friday night? At a football game, marching at halftime. What about Saturday? Marching Contest. Sunday? Practicing for Region Band. Monday after school? Tuesday? Every other day of the school week? Marching practice. Come on, you think I have another life or something?

The greatest thing I've ever experienced.Marching kids hate MB during practice, love MB during competitions, and miss MB when its over.

Author: not the sports editor of the tide. http://marching-band.urbanup.com/6422805. (marching band) (1417↑, 231↓)1. My whole entire life. 2. The class I live for. 3. The after-school activity you actually enjoy. 4. What you look forward to all year long, and you even love marching in the mud, the rain, and the blazing hot sun at band camp. 5. It taught me to appreciate the dirty things in life. 6. The late night bus rides where you play games, sing cheesy songs, and make out with your bus buddy (hey it's dark, and ALMOST no one can see). 7. Getting naked in front of everyone and loving it. 8. Your real family, that you love and also want to do things with. 9. It takes up all your free time and you love it. 10. Something to actually be proud of, since we work harder than the football team, probably win more awards, and we have more fun. Plus, it's one of the only sports that has boys and girls. You can never go wrong with that. 11. The feeling of belonging to something. 12. The BEST THING ON THE PLANET\!\!\!At one band competition, we got to the school at 2 A.M. and got back at 4 in the morning the next day. I was tired, my feet hurt and I had five shots in my coffee just to stay awake. And for that 24 hours my home was the white tent where we changed, my family was the band and all my friends, and heaven was those styrofoam cups of burning hot chocolate and out sock feet stepping in rain puddles while we frantically changed into marching uniforms. It's the amazing feeling you get when you finish the last note of your marching show, and the sound resonates all around the stadium, and you snap back to attention trying so hard not to smile because you're so happy.

Author: dani http://marching-band.urbanup.com/9533488. (marching band) (432↑, 77↓)1. My life 2. The best thing ever. 3. One of the hardest sports that is often overlooked. 4. Where you learn to march, play music better(while you march), spin flags, rifles or sabres(if you do color guard), and work together to perform a great show. 5. One large family with lots of incest. Made up of the band, the drum majors, the band director, the colorguard and the, usually very hot, drumline. 6. In marching band you usually participate in the following: competitions, halfime performances, practices, 3 hour bus rides, and parades. 7. Your excuse for not doing homework. 8. Where you also learn leadership, how to work with others, how to have fun, and how to work hard, even if your sick and feel like your going to faint. 9. Your salvation after dealing with all of your other classes every day. 10. Going to band camp. 11. The best thing I ever joined."Thinking the show will never work. And then, finally, it comes all together and you have achieved perfection , drumming your hands off and playing your brains out and tossing higher than the sky. A slice of time in a stadium when everyone cheers and your mom cries and pictures get taken and once, just once, you have the world in your hands. And the band marches out of the stadium and down the street, always together whether it's success or not, and you know by the feeling in your hear it doesn't get any better than this. And you know if your director asked you to turn around and "do it just one more time a little better" you would" I love that quote(or whatever) and that's exactly how you feel in marching band. Anyone who doesn't like marching has never done it.

All participants are expected to have god like powers of concentration, balance, dedication, playing ability, endurance, pain tolerance, memorization. All band kids have no life. Serious. It's one big family. With plenty of incest. In fact band kids tend to date band kids exclusively. I wouldn't recomend dating a band kid if your not in band simply because they would think of band about ten times more than you. Much better thatn football. You wouldn't get respect from your school even if you were the national champs.My life. "We got DRILLL\!\!\!\!\!" "can I go put some pants on?" band choreography sucks I love drill. I love the way it looks, the way it feels, the way it smells the way it tastes...

I'm unfortunate enough to get a day off of marching band..... I ussually spend that day practicing by myself. INSTRUMENT SEX\!\!\! Trombones chonga\! "This is not a democracy, it's a dictatorship" All questions must be submitted in statement form. Director: Does this question pertain to the group? Calvin: YES\!\!\! D:What is it? C:I forgot what time the parade starts. D:......that's a personal question. The tubas are the undoubted kings of the band. Our tuba line is famous. The color gaurd is hotties. The woodwinds can't march. They can play. You just can't hear them. I used to think trumpets were the shit. Then i upgraded to tuba.

Snare, tenors, bass, cymbals, marimba, suspended cymbal, cowbell, xylo, bells, chimes, claves, tamborine, etc.....every drummer has to know it all. 13. Trombones. They do it with a slide. 14. There are guys that play clarinet and flute. It's not just a girl thing. 15. There are girl drummers. It's not just a guy thing. 16. Drummers hit it because they like it. 17. This one time, at band camp.... 18. Your band director talks perfectly normal, but when he yells, he does it with an accent. 20. The drum major is horrified when they get on the podium for the first time. It's a little scary up there. 21. Halftime IS gametime. 22. The band DOES pay attention to the football game. WE even have out own little cheers. 23. Those long bus rides are killer that's why if you're a girl you sit with a boy you like and snuggle up.BAND TEN HUT\! BAND HORNS UP\! 1,2,3,4 FORWARD MARCH\!

Author: DM Chica24 http://marching-band.urbanup.com/256068338. (Marching Band) (86↑, 43↓)1. The most awesome sport on the planet...and NOBODY can deny it's a sport. We work so much harder than the football team...especially in the 90 degree summer heat for like 8 hours a day. Then once school starts, playing pre game, post game, and half time shows on friday nights, then going out to Pizza hut with the rest of the band until like 1 AM...then waking up for a competition the next day. TOTALLY more hard core than football. 2. The most awesome place to meet friends...it's basically like the giant marching band family. If you know people, great. You'll meet more. If you don't know people, you can't help knowing people by the end of the first couple days of practice. Then you see them all every day except sunday for the entirety of the season 3. The origin of the awesomest inside jokes that you and other band people will laugh at for years 4. The perfect way to find your inner hard core-ness. (haha.) But seriously, it starts to get painful...then when it's over you go brag about how painful it was 5. A group of students with basically no life besides band. You've got band camp, then practice every day after school, then a football game, competition or saturday practice like every weekend throughout the season...not really any time for a life.1. *During band camp* It's so hot out...i want lunch *After band camp* Band camp was so awesome\!\!\!\! 2.

"feet on the beat, feet on the beat" 3. "that's not attention\!\!\!" 4. "this is a marching band, NOT a walking band\!\!" 5. "keep those bells up\!\! you're not waiting for a bus\!\!" 6. "left\! left\! left\!" 7. "this is a fight song, not a lullaby\!\!\!" 8. "come on, row that boat\!\!\!" 9. "posture people, POSTURE\!\!\!\!" 10. "ARRGH\!\!\!\!" (and other crazy-pirate sounding yells) in addition, students may hear various words and/or phrases from other students, such as yelling, chanting, and various profanities better definition: 1. What people see: A group of people who devote every minute of every day to memorizing music and learning routines. They spend hours doing nothing on a bus to competition, work their asses off, sweat a TON, and get back on the bus. They sit on the bus being tired, sore, and unable to breathe because of the smell. People wonder why we do it. 2. What really goes on: A huge family of band people spend their free time memorizing music and learning routines, with much cussing and perverted comments in between. They spend hours on a bus playing truth or dare, laughing, joking, sleeping, and making out against windows. They perform in HOT uniforms, sweat to death, but can't help but smile as they listen to the roar of the crowd. They climb, exhausted, back onto the bus, where they proceed to throw full water bottles at each other and have chugging contests. Many people sleep, and wake up soaking wet. Others continue to make out and play truth or dare, all while stripping, and in the case of the girls, sitting around in sports bras. They go home, sleep for 24 hours straight, and wake up eager to do it all again.One band member in the marching band says, "You know, I actually DO have a life outside of band." The others look at him, look at each other, then one screams "Blasphemer\!" and they all chase the rogue out of the bandroom. "NO, I'M NOT MARCHING DOWN THE HALLWAY\!" "ooh... well maybe i am" "Band Ten' Hut (BOOM)......Band Horns Up (AND UP)......Mark Time Mark Lift Left - Left - Left Right Left -- Left - Left - Left Right Left......Forward March And......"

Author: Marchin_girly_66 http://marching-band.urbanup.com/237060241. (marching band) (70↑, 33↓)n. and adj. Marching band, simply, is a group of people who play certain types of musical instruments - notably, brass, woodwinds, drums/percussion - and march with them. Some marching bands are comprised of people who have written these other Urban Dictionary definitions. Some marching bands are comprised of people who are offended by these other Urban Dictionary definitions, which in either case are describing far more than simply marching band. Marching band, as a genre, is not limited by the season of the year; school, organization or community membership; age of the individual performer; musical selections or styles; and most obviously, level of devotion, values, character, focus, as well as hype or other nonsense. Just as there are good and bad performances, there are good and bad marching bands and good and bad members and players. All of these variables are determined by the individual marching band's membership, requirements and leadership/organization (or lack). The general reader is advised to learn about marching band from people who are excited about marching and the playing of musical instruments, and ignore input from those who need or prefer to focus on other alleged characteristics. Marching band instrumentation became focused on the three instrument classes of brass, woodwinds and percussion due to the combination of increased portability, durability and ability to be heard both indoors and outdoors. There are other sorts of instruments - notably strings, such as violins and guitars, and larger percussive instruments, such as pianos and harps, which are welcome in indoor orchestra halls but never became popular as a part of bands due to problems with durability and portability. Woodwinds are an instrument class which are sometimes eliminated from marching bands for these reasons, and such marching bands are more properly termed [brass bands] due to being comprised solely of brass and drums/percussion. Alternatively, woodwinds are often valued by other marching bands, whether due to the quality of their indoor woodwind players, their contributions to the total sound of the band in all settings, the desire to be inclusive to all members, or combination thereof. Such outdoor portability and performance utility no doubt contributed throughout history to the formation of what we know as a band, which can perform well both indoors and outdoors without a large scale change of instrumentation. Marching band was developed by people who played instruments indoors who wished to play and perform outdoors, as well as people united by other interests and associations who chose playing band instruments as an activity. Examples of the former are musicians who play trumpet, saxophone, drums, etc.; examples of the latter include fraternal organizations and businesses (such as those who built the British [brass band] movement in the 1800s, or those seeking a method to advertise their name such as the USA's Goodyear Community Band). "Marching" can range from a group of individuals merely walking together to the most perfectly uniform and military-styled precision, in step and in time with the music. The term "marching" is sometimes misused to signify other forms of outdoor performance. In addition to the music makers, marching bands may have auxiliary units such as drill teams, dance squads, honor guards, color guards and other sections associated with them. These other sections may or may not be considered an integral part of the marching band, again depending upon the individual marching band.Marching bands have developed in most countries over the past two centuries as a way to provide live music to listeners, both indoors and outdoors.

Nobody could replace this family.Marching Band really does work harder then football. At my school, there is a football camp. It is from 8 AM till 11 AM. The band Practices From 7AM till 4PM. Last season, 5 kids had to go to the hospital in a ambulance because the band director worked them too hard in 101 degree weather. We get a water break every 2 hours, and it only lasts 5 minutes, then it is back to work. the football players have no respect for us. We have to practice in the parking lot. If The Band director doesn't like what we are doing he makes us do this thing where we get into a push up position, but don't push up. It is harder said than done. If anyone falls, he makes us do it longer. We have practice on the first day of school. Then, we have a practice every monday and wendsday for 3 hours, friday for 5, and then after the friday practice, we have a football game to preform at. Saturdays we have a competition, and sundays we have a 9 hour practice. Oh, and for the colorguarders, like me, and then some band kids who choose to, it is a full year thing. There is winterguard. Its Not quite as brutal. In winterguard, you have 12 hour practices. The winterguard season starts BEFORE the fall guard season ends, so there is no time for a break. The end of winterguard marks the tryouts for Fall guard.The band director doesnt work us so hard because HE wants to, but because we TELL him to.

Tips for the little freshmen afraid of band... don't worry dearie you only got the drum major yelling at you to hurry up, you got upper classmen who will protect you during school day hours but the minute it's band time prepare for the worst. Oh and Tuba cases are not that bad you'll grow to get used to them by the end of your freshmen year.

The real truth 1. football games are not for you. You don't matter at all. People come for football. You guys are to keep the fans slightly entertained while the football players take a small break. 2. you are sick perverts. You make jokes about fingering and positions. 3. You are not hot. Girls, you are ugly cows. Guys, you are either fat loosers or skinny twigs. The only way you are getting any is from other bandies. I don't know about your school, but in mine, bandies hook up a lot and I vomit inside at some of the couples. I do not get laid a lot but when I do, it is usually an 8,9, or 10. MAYBE a 7. Not like the 4s and 3s in band. Reason why band bus have no lights is because no one wants to see that. 4. Your summer trainings are not that hard. We start practice an hour before you guys (5am) and end at 8. Thats practice. Then I lift weights for an hour THEN go for a long distance run THEN a swim. Yea walking around all day... not as hard as RUNNING all day. 5. Band letters do NOT count. you DO NOT deserve to wear one with a band letter In conclusion, you are disgusting. You think you are better then everyoneBandie: Oh My God\! Marching Band is so cool\! we are so much more tough then football\! our girls are so much hotter\! We get a lot of pootang\!

Author: jlawlzm http://marching-band.urbanup.com/416257769. (Marching Band) (42↑, 187↓)Exactly what the word implies. A band that marches, usually in formation, on a football field. I have played Trumpet and Violin, I have been in jazz band, and I have watched my schools marching band practice. We have over 200 members and are near top in the country. (Fairmont Highschool). This being said I will begin my rant. Marching Band takes skill and time and I respect it's members but it is NOWHERE near as demanding as football. I have heard the "8 hour practices in the 90 degree weather a month before school starts" stuff. Football is a year round sport. During the summer (the WHOLE summer), players practice in full pads sometimes more than twice a day, every day. Players take brutal hits and must always be on top of their assignments. If you have not played on a football team then you will not understand the vast knowledge of the game and mental/physical toughness it takes to be a football player. There are hundreds of plays and dozens of formations that every player is expected to know. The work football players do makes the Marching Band look laughable. Just face it Marching Band kids, you do not work harder than football kids. The only thing you have on football is that you can play instruments while marching in formation. The truth hurts doesnt it? This definition will have tons of thumbs down which just goes to show how every overzealous band member can't just admit that there ARE in fact people that work harder than them.Mr. Marching Band Member: Oh my god, marching band was sooooo hard today\! We had to practice for 8 hours in the 90 degree weather. One of our coaches got mad at us and made us run FIVE 20 YARD SPRINTS\! Mr. Football Player: Really? I had a hard day too. We had to be at the field at 6:00 a.m. for a 2 hour lifting and conditioning session. We came back at 12 and practiced for 3 hours in full pads. We put in 15 new plays and 3 new formations but our offensive linemen kept jumping off sides so our coaches made us run 100 yard sprints until we puked. Three of our players passed out from heat exhaustion. We had a one hour break and then had another practice session. Well, I better go, I have to get up at 5:45 tomorrow.

Author: Trevurrr http://marching-band.urbanup.com/278546871. (marching band) (72↑, 357↓)A smelly bunch of malcontent teenagers and/or college kids wearing sweaty, ass-scented wool and polyester uniforms running around a football field in silly, often phallic formations, tooting horns and making stupid jokes about fingerings and positions. No one thats anyone likes marching band, and anyone that says they do doesn't have a life.When in the marching band of Nathan Bedford Forrest High, George W. Bush did lines of coke off the slutty colorguard girls' asses.
