The only way Jay can get up is with a hydrolic lift.

Hey, can you go down any lower? (said to tubas)

I don't know about his personality, but he sure has great lips! (trumpet)

Wow! Your fingers are fast! (clarinet)

I love it when you double-tongue!

Can you triple-tonge that?

FASTER! FASTER!

One of my personal favorite "Toneyisms":

"Dave's gonna come down here and do Big Girls."


A close second:

"I want to take advantage of 16 tubas!"


He might not have been the best director, but that man was funny!

"How are your lips doing?"

sectionals (say it fast, it confuses non-music people)

"If there's a hole in your crotch, tell me!"

"Get it up, you've got three minutes!" (okay, referring to hair off the collar)

"Make it dirty!"

"You always come in early!"

"When you grab it, don't go up. Just grab it."

"Groin stretches.... with a friend."

"It's eight slow steps and then four quickies."

"Turn me on!" (okay..... referring to microphones.)

"I need to see you all bend over."

"Spread 'em!"

"Let's get jacked up!"



(Why yes, I do have a band quotes website.... :wink:)

ahhh, groin stretches with a friend...those were my fav..lol.

do you still do eight count stretches where the whole band counts off together and the percs always end with a word that rhymes with eight? Good times...lol
Eg: 3, 4, 5, 6, your mom was great...

some of my favorites from FMB last year:

"If anything needs to be stretched, stretch it."

"We're going to play it through once, and then we're going to work it like we've never worked it before!"

"Get in touch with your deep down inner stripper." followed by
"I got excited about the stripper section."


"Today is find-the-beat day... after today, you should be very comfortable with this music. And if you're not, come talk to me, and we'll get comfortable."

I'm sure there were TONS more...but those will do for now!! ;-)
