TOP 15 THINGS TO DO IN BAND CLASS WHEN YOU'RE BORED

1. Sit on a pillow and claim it channels your creative energy, ohmmmm

2. Play everything one octave up

3. Wear a hat made out of tinfoil and claim you're channeling the soul of Mozart with it

4. Use your instrument as a puppet

5. Play nothing but one note the entire time, preferably something that is always out of tune

6. Stand up, scream "MUSIC COMES FROM THE SOUL!!" and shred your music sheets

7. Claim metronomes are against your religion

8. Take chairs from another section and line them up to form a bed and sleep.  Name it after your section, i.e. Clarinet Nappy Land

9. When you finish a piece, wave a lighter in the air...be moved to tears

10. Stand up every time you crescendo, sit down as you decrescendo.

11. Bring every march down to pianissimo and play legato and watch the director's forehead pulse.

12. Every time the director asks your section to play, pray before

13. Randomly play a scale.  Say you're practicing for the next scales test.  Works best if next scales test is over 1 week away, or you just took one.

14. Kidnap the first chair person of your section and leave a ransom note on the board, saying that you will only return him/her if you get moved to 1st.

15. Replace the percussion with pots and pans and attach a note that says "Sorry, budget cuts"
