Top Eleven Things to Do to Let Your Conductor Know You're His Favorite Student - Oh he'll just love you. - Entertainment - http://maxpages.com/sugarinacan/Band

11. When washing your instrument (brass) the night before, "forget" to empty the water out. In class the next day, empty your spit valve. Now watch the shades of the conductors face change.

10. When raising your stand, raise it so high that you can't see the conductor's face. It must be much higher than everyone elses.

9. When raising your stand, make sure that the top falls off, spilling all of your music all over the floor. (Daily)

8. When your section is not playing, whistle a completely different song then what the other sections are playing on their instruments. (Make it loud.)

7. For percussion players : Make sure you NEVER have all of your equipment.

6. Sigh frequently - ask the conductor if you can have a re-audition - make sure he knows you're doing him a favor by being there.

5. Brass instruments - When playing, blast the sound coming out of the bell every other measure.

4. On the night of a big concert - during warm ups - keep asking him ' is this really the way we should play this measure?' 'Are you sure it's a forte?' Act COMPLETELY not sure about the entire piece.

3. Brass - take your straight mute and your cup mute, and put both of them horizontally beside each other on your chest, flat against you. (Make sure the conductor is looking your way.)

2. When the rest of the band is going up a scale - go down the scale - or better yet, play a different scale!

1. Ask what time it is every ten minutes - and keep rolling your eyes when he answers. (If he answers.)
