Band Day!

Stuff your ears with cotton! Break out the nerve tonic! Take a trip to Pluto! It’s Band Day!

That’s right. Today in Stinky Valley, noise pollution, always a distraction, reaches a crescendo. Band Day is upon us. Yes. A great many of the high school marching bands in these parts are teaming up (also teeming) with the Booger Center sound system to burst the ear drums of Stinky Valley property owners

Actually, inside the house, one mostly hears the famous Booger Noise sound system and, from the bands, the window rattling drum lines. Seems like high school bands in these parts feature mostly percussion these days. Which makes sense. Percussion is all the flag twirlers need. You know, for timing this bump or that grind. Yet outside, one may espy the pitiful tootling of the horns and reeds, squeaking and blatting away, oddly out of synch with the thundering percussion.

Whatever. Jeez Louise!

Oh my Goddess. I just remembered. Some years, there are two band days
