percussion calibration

The process of beating the snot out of a piece of equipment to get it to work properly

I had to perform a minor percussion calibration on that IBM workstation until it cooperated.

girl percussionist

a girl who plays a percussion instrument. normally only a few in a grade and sometimes in the school. if there are more than 1 half of them are normally really cute. also since they spend so much time around guys they are normally tomboys and have a guys sense of humor. they've probably dated at least one person in their section, most likely the 2nd cutest one because the 1st is obsessed with percussion and "doesn't have time for a girlfriend." all in all, girl percussionists are the ones that have the most guy friends, the most boyfriends, and the least amount of girl friends, and they don't care either.

"OMG did you hear that Sydney is a girl percussionist."
"Yeah she's the perfect candidate, her being all tomboyish and smokin' hot."

Pertustitute

A prostitute of ill-health, exhibiting frequent coughing, rattling and wheezing, phlegmy and general malaise. Typically targetting a lower class of client and willing to accept reasonable offers.

I found her in the park, in rags, hacking like a jitney - but all I had was a crumpled twenty, and so a pertustitute would have to do.

indoor percussion

a group of people (usually around 15 to 30) that perform 5-10 minutes of music indoors after marching season has ended. ages of people involved depend on the category (scholastic-highschoolers, independant-any age up to age limit, open-mostly college aged up to age limit, world-mostly college aged up to age limit).

ensembles usually are split into front ensemble (marimba, xylophone, vibraphone, synth, toys) and battery (snare, tenor, bass drums, cymbals) or in the case of concert ensembles, that have just front ensemble with no marching. the music difficulty depends on the categories (or a mixture: i.e. independant open, scholastic A) and usually follows a theme or idea shown through the music.

indoor percussion groups are insane, how do they play all those notes?!
