When I first set out to write this blog, I had planned on it being funny stories about my teaching and being a high school band director. So let's see if I can dreg up a few ---
1. High school band trip - student gets caught with nipper bottles in his backpack during the xray inspection into the capitol building.
2. Same trip - another student gets caught "lowering" nipper bottles on a string outside his hotel room to the girl's room below his after curfew.
3. Another high school band trip - Arrival in Los Angeles to play several concerts only to find our entire battery of percussion equipment never made it out of NYC!
4. Entered gr. 9 general music classroom (back in the day when 9th graders took general music!) to find all the desks and chairs piled high in one corner with student "tarzan" pounding his chest on top.
5. Student losing his shoe in the mud on football field during half time show.
6. Student losing the bottom half of his clarinet on the football field during half time show (Do you think you could have bent over and picked it up???)
7. Yes, student forgetting his instrument on the band trip.
More to come ---
