Growing-up-guard - Growing Up Guard

SOMEONE STEPPED ON A TUBAS MOUTHPIECE AGAIN!

Some good quotes I’ve heard from the band this season

“Hydrate or diedrate.”

“What on God’s good earth did they teach you over at drum corps???”

“Ok, if I say ‘cool?’ I want you guys to say ranch, cool?”

“Nevermind,I guess you guys are lame.”

“I was gonna roll down my window and yell ‘NERD’ but I chickened out and just drove up on the grass.”

“What an absolute goddamn unit.”

“Ok, can someone that’s NOT a senior please raise their hand”

“Literally everyone here is a breathing meme and it’s kinda scary.”

“I think I have some ligma in my part.”

“SAY LIGMA ONE MORE TIME SEE WHAT HAPPENS”

Add on if you want

Wind @ me while practicing

What I’m bad at: most things

What I’m good at: somehow hitting myself in the face with absolutely everything

I blame you

Me: Can I barrow your glove?

Older Friend: Sure, but she’s a little smelly

(puts on glove)

Me: HOE DAMN THIS IS NOT A LITTLE SMELLY! GONNA KNOCK A BITCH OUT WITH THIS FOUL SCENT OF DEATH!!!

Diary of a Wimpy Guardsmen: How to get kicked out of band but still be in band

Change my mind

Trying to join DCI is the modern day equivalent of running off to join the circus

Thanks man! Your Blog is pretty cool, has tons of relatable posts and stuff, and I think saxophones are second best sound instrument next to Flutes. But saxophone players tend to not have the negative connotation I’ve heard some flutes have. I hope you have a wonderful concert season (or whatever you band kids do.)

For my Band kiddos

Go follow @growing-up-guard . I love them soo much. They are a colorguard member (obviously) which means they are automatically cool. If you are a guard member or a band freshman you should totally go follow them!! Let’s get support for the band freshies!!

Just guard things

Having to sneeze under a cross-toss

I’m in Color Guard and if my dad asks me if I had fun at “flag” when I get home from marching band rehearsal one more time I’m gonna have a stroke

And gentle rain outside the bus leaves the walls chilly and the lights bending. But you’ve never been more comfortable in your life

those nighttime band bus rides where people are napping or singing or laughing or listening to music and there’s the faint glow of the streetlights passing by and everything feels right in the world
