Ever sat through a band concert wondering how your kid suddenly knows 12 instruments but still can’t find their shoes? Or nodded along as the band director explained “dot books” and “horn angles” like you weren’t completely lost? Then The Band Dad’s Podcast is for you!

Join us as we break down the wild, wonderful, and slightly chaotic world of band parenting with humor, sarcasm, and just enough actual knowledge to keep us from getting kicked out of the booster club. Whether you're a seasoned band parent or still figuring out what a “reed” is, we’ve got your back. Tune in—confusion loves company!

thank you, Scott for the way you handled this in the thoughtful discussion. I'm currently teaching in a very diverse school with a lot of high need high support students that are very difficult to have in my band class because they don't have the social controls that many of the"normal" band kids may have. Those kids get a lot of attention take a lot of time and are very high stress to have in class but I also know that it's worth it. It's worth it for that kid to be in my class for two or three years in middle school in the hopes that they make better choices in high school. I know the long-term effects of that kid playing a clarinet or trombone are far better than removing a kid because of behavior problems during rehearsal. You're talking in this episode helped reinforce that. I'm sharing this episode as well as episode two with a lot of social media in hopes that in the state of Indiana that can help me to political outcomes that we know band Orchestra and even cheerleading as you said can help with kids.
