drum captain

A guy who is usually a huge dick. One becomes drum captain because of seniority, regardless of musical skill. The band director usually lets the drum captain get away with anything. Assigns himself the best parts in songs while everybody else gets shit on and put on cymbals.

Drum Captain: Hey, I'm putting you on bells despite the fact you're a better musician than I am for this song while me and my friends are gonna play snare.

Other Percussionist: Dude, fuck you. Bells only play for 13 measures in the entire song.

Captain: But you can read music.

Percussionist: Not my fault you can't.

Captain: You're a faggot.

Percussion: At least I'm not a huge dick.
