Band is family:

Most think of nerds with pocket protectors and drooling in their own excitement....
Uh huh, band is family, it is the closest thing to a real "realty show" that is possible, there is laughter, love, tragedy, and work rolled up in one room that most people ignore and avoid. Their missing out, I have three brothers that are not even related to me an sisters also, it is a place to belong a place to be and it is what keeps me from leaving this planet. So if you see a group of people who are all in step and all singing the same old song don't give them a dirty look just think that "there goes the biggest family there is."
