I play clarinet and oh my god Emi I can feel your pain
Except with high notes, Clarinets are more likely to squeak
And when they squeak, they sound like a dying cat getting swallowed by a goose

And you can hear that iconic mouse-killing squeak over the ENTIRE FREAKING BAND

I had a lot of young'uns I was mentoring on the clarinet and oH My GOD

Oof
The flute high notes don't squeak when you play it badly
It either makes a sound that makes your eardrums wanna die or blows raspberry

@Yamatsu

My band teacher has his Master's in playing the trombone, so the other trombone players call him the "Master Boner."

…… I’m sooooooooo unsure if that should actually happen…….

@yeetus

At my old school's band there was apparently a tuba player a couple of years back who drinks from his water tray to gross out the girls

Hah… That is pretty funny but also kinda weird…..
The trombone section at my school would always wear them as like hats (with the bells on their heads) every chance they got during marching practice

Our band has a thing with fedoras. Also something the upperclassmen like to get the freshmen to touch there plooms so they can tell them to Inhales "DON'T TOUCH THE PLOOMS!!!!"

Speaking of plumes…..
We have this joke that you can put your plume into the marching band hat the wrong way, but there isn't a true way to tell if it's backwards or not…. So we just kinda joke about that sometimes.
