One time I couldn’t find a triangle beater so my solution was to hit the triangle with another triangle. Idk what was wrong with me. One time I had this mallet solo test and I had only practiced the first four measures so I just played the rhythms and not the notes. And that was the only assignment in band class that I got and F on. I also have a reputation of playing way above fortissimo.

I was the bass 5 player in my school this last season and in our third movement, we had this impact thing where I was playing this triplet, kinda Mars sounding drum thing with the flats. I was the only bass playing it. The drill had us moving forward like quite a bit so I was crabbing. The snares and the tenors were almost 20 yards away from me because we were in this massive arc set. It was absolute hell to line up. And I couldn't really see them either because it's bass 5. And keep in mind, this was my first year on battery in highschool.

As a trombonist, I sucked mainly at flats and naturals. I used to always play Ab's instead of normal A's. After a couple years of being constantly told not to play Ab's. I finally was able to play pieces correctly until this year when I had a part of a piece in Ab, so I started getting constantly told to play the note right again. Long story short, read key signatures correctly.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="700">11:40</a> the opposite happened for me. I played front line mallet percussion in my high school’s marching band. Senior year, I play xylophone just as the drumline comes in from way back in the backfield. Trying to listen to the one snare playing, and come in on time with them, and seeing the drum majors being on time but a little ahead f the sound getting to me made sure I always sucked at my entrance, coming in too fast and too early. Very beginning of the show, and it’s a very noticeable mess up since it’s xylophones, they cut through anything! I slow down with the measure but it sounds *awful* Here’s the show, I’m on the far left.

You mentioned about the distance and timing issue. I just realised my first ever (and so far only) show that I marched in (we never finished it because of people quiting) had a part that actually was even harder than having a tenor solo coming in right after a turn to the front. In one of the sets the percussion section actually had to split up to both sides of the field facing eachothers backs for a good 24 beats until turning 180 degrees to march back to the center. So besides the distance and therefore sound delay getting bigger and bigger with each step we not only had no sound reference, we also had no visual for those 24 beats on either the drum major or eachother to keep it together.

I love how everyone hates mallets. They are my main game. Always were, always will be. I suck at quick snare everything tho. And jazz drumming. Oh and that one time we had only 3 drummers for 5 drumparts and the timpanist had to play through the whole thing. So I had to constantly change between bells and marimba, and because marimba needed 4 mallets this was really had for me.

It was only after a while when I expressed surprise at picking up something quite easily where she made an "of course you did" kinda comment, that I realised she didn't pick up on the fact I ONLY share things that I am confident in, and ONLY start new things that I can see have a low barrier to entry. I was flattered that she thinks I am very able (or smart or skilled or whatever) but a really embarrassed that she doesn't realise how much of a fraud I am.

I couldn’t read music till my junior year, so basically two years of marching band and indoor learning music by ear and only using the sheets for the sticking lol. Another one is I’m naturally left handed but I forced myself to learn how to play righty when I started learning drum set. I really only played rock and metal till high school so when I did flams I did them however it was comfortable for me (all left handed with the grace note essentially at the same height at the accent). Flash forward to high school I made the snare line and I went a whole year without ever realizing there was a difference between left handed and right handed flams. They fixed the grace note height issue but somehow never noticed my flams were lefty. Enter sophomore year and we got some new staff who marched and taught the Cadets and one of them noticed I played all my flams lefty. He was like bro right handed flams have the right hand higher. But again I didn’t realize righty flams have the left hand as the grace note so basically my left handed flams were correct but right handed flams ended up being malfs. Needless to say the entire drum staff was dumbfounded 😂

@@lasagnajames I usually tried to avoid the mallet parts in concert band like the plague if I could lol but when I had to play mallets I listened to as many recordings as I could and then would figure it out note by note matching pitches as I heard them!

As an 11th grader who was put into concert band because the band director found out I was a musician and was forced to learn marimba and mallet persuasion, I second how frustrating it is, my problem was just learning how to read sheet music because I know where all the notes on mallet percussion instruments are but I couldn’t read sheet music till like 6 weeks ago

Been a while since I’ve been in band(started college the fall after Covid hit) but I am pleased to say I will be returning to it this spring. Back when I was in band playing tbn I remember distinctly struggling with up beats for some odd reason. The other thing was not really my fault but junior year due to a miscommunication between our drill writer and director props moved without anyone stationed to move them so we had to find people to move them but I’ll let you guys guess what happened the first rehearsal with props.
