Top 10 Ways To Annoy Your Drum Major

10. Listen intently to his instructions. Do exactly the opposite. Insist that that was what he said to begin with.9. Empty spit exactly in the spot where he steps down from the podium. Get the entire brass section to do this. Often.8. Harass the cheerleaders. Blame the comments on the drum major.7. Invent your own tempo. Stick to your guns, no matter how big his beats are or how much he glares at you.6. "Confess" to your band director that you just can't follow such bad conducting and obscured beats.5. Drop vital instrument parts during drill (this includes bells, mouthpieces, foot joints, slides, etc.).4. Wait until he's just finished an hour of basics reviewing. "Forget" to step off on your left foot. Repeatedly.3. Whenever you see him trying to find his tempo, immediately start singing, playing, or tapping your foot loudly and out of tempo. Annoyingly infectious songs or songs in a completely different meter are especially effective.2. Wait until the busses have left before looking surprised and announcing loudly, "No one told us to take our uniforms off the bus, too!" or "You mean they aren't coming back to unload the instruments?!" These actions are best performed by at least three people for maximum chaos.1. In your sweetest and most respectful voice, ask him, "As God, why can't you make our team win a game?" Look serious. Expect an answer. Wait for one.
