My sister told me it was a 6-9 but it was from 3-7 and I really don't want to go there 2 hours late and end up doing 100+ pushups.

    They make you do 100+ pushups if you're late? I can understand that if you were on the football team or something but band practice ? wow tongue.gif

    Not everyone but my section leader is a dick. And as soon as he see me he'll tell me to get down for being late.

    Once day, I was waiting for the 23 to come pick me up. The 50 and 23 both run down this street, and the 50 came by and suddenly it hit me -- I really don't feel like going to band.

    I got on the 50 and rode for about thirty minutes and just started walking. Don't worry about your band.

    They take the band very seriously. At band camp last week I did maybe 1500+ push ups.

    Why would you call BS on that? Its believable.
    He said last week, assuming it was a 5 day deal with weekends off- 1500/5=300. Three hundred in a day is COMPLETELY believable, especially since it was probably spread out over several hours.

    Now Im going to call bullshit on that one. Why would your coach make you do that? It just wastes another half hour or more which could be used for practicing dry.gif

    Many coaches really don't think about that -- discipline seems more important to some coaches than the time used to enforce it. Understandable, though I agree that practicing would be a much better use of the time.

    I'm in band, and being late is no big deal. But we are the best in my school.
