Drum Majors

Annoying, Wanna-be Drill Sergeants, who are always messing up the tempos. Drum Majors lead the entire band in Marching Drills, Musical Rehearsals, etc. they basically exist so the Band Director doesn't really have to do anything.

" I Hate Drum Majors, they are so Freakin' annoying " ~ Literally Everyone In The Entire Regiment

Drum Major

Self-proclaimed god of band. Usually is described as the director's bitch, a small price to pay to make everyone else his or her bitch. Wields incredible power during the fall, but loses it during spring, where the band is undergoing what is known as "concert season". Is particularly fond of newbies and works to take them under wing quickly

The drum major gave the order to march despite the complaints of several upperclassmen.

Drum Major

If the director is the god of the band, then the drum major is his jesus. Always a senior who was usually mistreated as a freshman and takes it out on the freshies in the band, but is generally a cool cat to everyone else.

Despite the name, most drum majors actually play trumpet, because playing lead trumpet requires the most musical ability and leadership skills (I was the first low brass player at my school to be drum major ever)

When I was drum major, I told all the freshmen that BFMT ('bout face mark time) in the field show diagrams stood for backflip mark time, because when I was in 9th grade I was told that by seniors.

Drum Major

a selected person/few people who think they are God's gift to the band. They walk around the band room talking to the band director about "highly" important matters. They talk to other band members occasionally, but only if they have a special status, other band members are too lowly to talk to them. They also enjoy flaunting their reputation in any way possible. But when it all boils down, are not at all important because no one really watches them anyways.

Dan: I'm a drum major
Band student: why the freak would you want to be that
Dan: because Im cool
Band Student: u suck
Dan: oh yeah!? I'll have to talk to Mr. Band director about you!!
Band Student: oh yeah?!?! Your momma!!
Dan: *runs off crying*

Drum Major

The last fart let before the person decides to go take a crap. The Drum Major is so named, because it leads the parade of feces out of the colon, as a Drum Major would lead the band in a parade down the street.

Innocent bystander: "Man, that fart smelled TERRIBLE! Was that you?"

Guilty party: "Yeah, that was the Drum Major. Guess I'll go take a crap."
