Band Freaks Club!

I am starting the Band Freaks Club and am looking for members. To apply for membership, just answer the questions below. Please be truthful.

1. What instrument(s) do you play?

2. Have you named your instrument(s)? If so, what?

3.How often do you play your instrument(s)?

4. How often do you clean your instrument(s)?(Wind instruments only)

5.How long have you played said instrument(s)?

6. Do you really really REALLY want to join the Band Freaks Club?

I will tell you if I think that you are eligible to join the Band Freaks Club.

 

How about changing the title to Band and Orchestra Club, Cara? Strings are important, too. Or should orchestra have a separate club? Do you really want to call yourselves freaks? How about geeks instead?

Hmmm. It seems like a lot of people name their instruments. . . Okay! I'm holding a naming contest-thingy-mer-bobber for my flute. It is a Gemeinhardt open-hole silver (not silver head-joint, all pieces) flute that has no name! :( Any suggestions? Whoever submits a name I like earns . . .ummm . . .a. . .er . . .100 Band Freaks points! =) Oh, and I am much more likely to pick girl names . .  .I don't think my flute is a boy, who knows, I guess. . .
