Marching Band

Usually noticed as a talented and hard-working musical group, Band, to the participants, see it as a cult. In a traditional marching band period, what happens there is pretty much grinding on drill, or the form of the players/actors/color guard, the whole time, with an occasional cup of ice. There the band rules out the weak and puts them as alternates, or, literally, pawns used only in emergencies. Working on the music is more or less vigorous, with the poor drum major trying his/her hardest to direct while band plays. Old ladies screaming at you about tone and support is another plus, along with whoever wants to bang our heads against the wall with rhythm lectures. And who can forget good old MUSIC THEORY! oH gOsH tHe TuBas
Band is pretty much survival of the fittest both musically, mentally and physically, and it all comes together to make a show.
Did you hear the marching band playing music? It was great!

hair band

Principally from the 80's.

Any one of a loose class of rock and roll bands sharing any number of similarities, but typified by long, elaborately messy, overblown hairstyles.

The implication that the hair is perhaps the most substantive thing about such a band or thier music.
See, for example: Motley Crue, Guns -n- Roses, Warrant, Stryper, etc., and to a lesser degree, Def Leppard, Bon Jovie, and so on.

hair band

The last of great music, ever. It's actually hair metal. The hardest rock around. The best bands in the world. These bands actually had talent and the tunes kick so much ass. After hair bands, there was a shitty trend called "grunge" which totally blows, along with all other music.
