Many people have pre-concieved notions about band kids. Most of these notions are either wrong, or only partially correct. The truth about band kids is that they are not crazy all the time, they aren't dorky, and they aren't lame. They are normal, more normal than most are. They are even cool, because they don't hide a part of themselves. In addition, they can play challenging instruments with ease, and make formations on a football field. They are comfortable with other band kids, and do anything that pops into their head. Ever wanted to run down the hallway, skipping, and screaming your favorite song? you probably haven't because you'd be embarrassed, the band kids have done it.

A band geek by definition is:
1. A person who calls the band hall their second home.
2. Has the ability to play 5 or more instruments.
3. Participates in musicals, ignoring the long hours of torture, but enjoying it thoroughly.
4. Dates other band geeks.
5. Has no problem repeating things.
6. Has no problem repeating things.
7. Will skip other classes to be in the band.
8. Are always happy, or appear to be, no matter how bad things get.
9. Are the coolest people in school.
10. Are always having fun, through playing, dating, having sex, etc...
11. 200 times better than "orch dorks" and "choir queers" combined, and they know it.

The most awesome, and random people you'll ever meet. Bandos go to the games, outcheer the cheerleaders, and don't have any idea what sport it was they were playing for, or who won. They range from the annoying "popular" kids to the awesome random ones. To band geeks the bandroom is their home. They tend to have a flare for innuedoes, even though a lot of them are actually innocent. May date each other, or orc dorks. NOT choir whores. Bandos cannot even begin to tell you how not cool choir students are.
Hey could you hear the announcer over those Band Geeks? No, but they cheered really well for not noticing what sport the team was playing.

A member of a band, almost always a high school marching band. Band Geeks generally form packs with complex social structure, the biggest geek being the top (or "alpha") geek.

one who enjoys band of all sorts. usually gets along wel with theater and tech kids, but not cheerleaders, football players, or chorus members. there are all kinds of band geeks.
some are even reasonably cool, even by cheerleader-football player standards. in fact, a bisectional (well, maybe it doesn't count, but she was a majorette and a sax player, which in my book counts as bisectional) won homecoming queen this year. however, i really could not possibly care less about these 'cooler' people, since all being cool in high school gets you is fake validation from annoying drunks anyway. not that i'm a loser, but you get my point.
some are ridiculously weird. one tuba playing girl is known to use food coloring on her hair and fingernails when she gets bored in the band room. i don't think that anyone should really go this far just to prove they don't care about image. but you see, there are all kinds of bandies and the best thing is to be in the BAND in-crowd. meaning you are part of the elite group of good-looking bandies who have an insane amount of fun all the time, and you're not necessarily well-known in the school, so there's no pressure to be cool all the time, but you're not really hated or seen as a freak, which is nice.
top reasons to strive to be in this group:
10. the band room is an awesome place to hang out and get away from the ridiculousness of normal high school.
9. it's true what they say: inter-band dating is the best kind. and no, the guys are not all fat, ugly, gay, creepy, or even remotely weird. i wouldn't know what to do without band guys, actually.
8. you can be a pretty majorette/colorguard and still play an instrument and remain in this group.
7. you make amazing friends
6. most bands take trips somewhere, like disney, where you and your friends are pretty much the coolest people there, in your book.
5. marching in step with all of your friends, all the time, without thinking about it, makes for some good times.
4. all of your friends will have an impeccable taste in music, not to mention the fact that they will be smart and capable of carrying on intelligable conversations.
3. you really, honestly, do not know what you are missing if you're not a band geek.
2. its a good way to get respect from adults even if you are a slacker who gets into way too many shenanagans for your age.
1. uh...the band room thing again. it is seriously awesome.
to sum it all up, if you have a negative definition of band geeks in mind, change it. seriously. we're not freaks, we're just a lot cooler than you, but don't show it off.

someone who is most likely voting up on every positive response, and repeatedly clicking down on the negative ones (far after being told they've already voted down).
That band geek is awesome
