I don't think we're allowed to wear any jewelry... except medical bracelets... if you just got your ears pierced though you can cover it with a band-aid.

Technically, we're not allowed to wear any jewelry unless we just got our ears pierced, and we have to put a bandaid over that. A lot of people still get away with studs and neclaces because it usually isn't flashy enough to make our BDs notice.

We are supposed to take them out or cover them up, but I usually get away with it. I have 2 earrings in my left ear and my eyebrow pierced. Kind of hard to see from the press box, but our band director is all about "image".

Im not sure about our band ..but i dont think that its been a problem..i personally have my ears gauged so...that might be a problem, then again i have long hair that covers them up because Im not always told to put it up

Last year,at our school's marching band,my friend in the drumline had an earring, but had to wear or else the hole could close up. The director had to allow it.

The band I teach has always gone with the same standards as the military when in uniform. Females (and males, in our case) get one stud per ear, one bracelet/watch per wrist (though everyone usually takes those off), and the only necklaces allowed have to be tucked into a shirt.

honestly, I think that it would be REALLY dumb for a member of the drumline to wear earings to a game or competition.

scenario: 1st bass player decides to wear earings to a game. 1st bass player has to go to the bathroom right before halftime. 1st bass player almost misses marching on to the field. She throws on her drum in a hurry and snags her earing.

Do any of you think it is unacceptable to wear an elastic band on my head to keep the hair out of my face. (It would look a little like a soccer player.) I am a guy and my hair is somewhat long.
