Marching Band is a place for the nerdiest and craziest people, who think it’s fun to work their butts off in the heat of late July at Band Camp. While some of them are actually athletic and do other things outside of band, most do not have much of a life outside of it and only have friends that are also in band with them. Most Marching Band members will argue that it’s a sport, which it totally should count as a sport since the members go through as much physical pain and suffering during practices as the football team. The members have to be smart also, since you can’t play an instrument or do choreography with a flag while stepping to the beat and remembering all your sets without being at least somewhat smart. (Although most band members will argue that they are dumb, don’t believe them. Some of the smartest people in the school reside in the Marching Band.) The Marching Band is extremely under appreciated and under represented, even though they are so much better then then the football team and cheerleaders put together.
Cheerleader: Marching Band isn’t a sport.
Band member: Really? Because one of our members has a IQ twice as large as your entire squad’s. Not only that but we have to get on the field and practice for triple the amount of time that you guys have to in the heat of the summer while remembering all our sets in the field, how to play the music, and for the color guard, all the choreography. Stop dissing the Marching Band and get a life and some talent.

Get the banded peak school mug.A totally real band lol. Known for their hit single “Hornpipe” and nothing else. They are real. Sadly all 36 of them died in a train on tricycle accident in Finland in the 17th century so all records of their work have been lost and/or destroyed so don’t look for their work. You will NOT find anything bro

Get the the Celtic trad band mug.Some underground or obscure band (or band obscure to the fans' larger peer group) that someone likes only because they can act elitist and sophisticated OR they can they say they like something unique different from everyone else. In bad cases, should the band break into the mainstream, they will suddenly disavow their fanship.
As a phenomenon, the term can be applied to individual artists. Most associated with genres with strong anti-authoritarian tendencies like punk, indie rock or hip hop, but can be applied to a wide range of situations, like random American fans of J-pop who really only like it because they can feel special, in contrast to true appreciators.
Sometimes associated with hipsters, or rather, their imitators.
Nevertheless everyone needs a dose of identity band sometimes. The opposite excess, where your playlist is entirely composed of songs off the top 40 lists, is a much worse sin.

It doesn't matter how massively popular Coldplay is, Arjun is self-confident enough that he doesn't have an identity band crisis for liking them.
Person 1: I liked Kid Cudi and Kanye better when they were underground.
Person 2: Please tell me you're not into that insecure identity band shit.

Get the Blowing a band mug.CONTINUED FROM #6:
If you have some grace and musical talent(not all guards have this, but ours do and 80% of us play all sorts of musical instruments{most are 1st-3rd out of 5 or more chairs in Concert/Symphonic Band/Choir/Orchestra/Guitar class in their section or have ability to be in more than two instrument sections} and WE GOT RHYTHM AND EXPRESSION like no one's business... kinda required from everyone...lol) then good for your guard.
WE ARE NOT CHEERLEADERS/TWIRLERS. In order for our school's cheerleading team to "look" good while performing, they need to have certain and various amounts of body control, balance, muscle, body awareness, timing, and smiles. These are not hard once you get them down but these are NOT EASY either. NOT ALL GUARDS HAVE THIS but ours do- according to this at some level, we get along with the cheerleaders and we appreciate each other.
Twirlers... I have no exact idea who they are so i can't judge them...
All i know is that twirlers twirl.
7. guard or CG (colorguard)
