Gettin' Back to the Basics[edit | edit source]
The mellophone is an instrument used for marching band, it was first made for hobos who wanted to play in the marching band but got screwed over with the french horn. With lots of intense work, they finally had the trumpet and french horn make a baby, creating the mellophone.

The mellophone, aslo known as the "mello" never is given melody and will only play side parts because they sound so horrible. The mellophone usual comes in the brass color, but also comes in silver and copper.
Those who play: Of the weird sort, but heck all band kids are, Usually the rival of the trumpet, but in truth, they are like bff's giuuuuuuurll'! They are intelligent and slightly nerdy like all, and are somewhat attractive, but not slutty girls like the flute section. They are humorous and sarcastic, and usually very social creatures. They admit to their lame-ess of the instrument they play, which gives them slight respect from others. Some say these players are endangered and others extinct in some bands, your not missing much but fun and silly band kids to hang around with. The mellophonist is the condom of the band Although some may thing they are horrible sounding, and the instrumentalist will mostly likely agree, they arent as bad as saxphones! They are like johnny apple seeds of the band who spread abstinence seeds and promote waiting til' marriage, or no sex at all! (Because its not real! Its like a unicorn or santa, sorry kiddos' it aint' real.) They are good minded souls... most of the time. If not, the best way to scold a mellophonist is either:
1. Make them eat soap.
2. Call them a waffle.
3.If step one or two dont work, resort to chucking waffles at them until down on ground in submissive hold.
Mellophonists are on the short end of the size chart, usual not going over 5'5, they are comical in there size and usually politically in correct while cracking off jokes. You never go wrong with sitting with one on the band bus, because they are lots of entertainment. There favorite time of year is christmas--"winter holiday", they celebrate Jewmas in packs and eat ladkas while making ginger bread houses and waiting for santa to slide down the gutter. They are very festive and sometimes thought of as elves. But it doesnt matter because they are lame like that... and very very short.
"The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear."
