Pushing Band Candy

[Mxylptlk142]

For a man so huge on songs that steal from others ... he doesn't do an awfully good job of hiding Eminem's "The Way I Am"...

[ThePatrickboulet]

@Mxylptlk142 i'm sorry but almost every sound has been done, all guitar chords, everything, kind of hard not to have similarities between songs, it doesn't make it stealing, so fuck you

[almati03]

Can someone tell me the chords for this?

[haleygirl4042234]

same thing my director did 

[hibeep369]

This is the fight song for band geeks

[animegirlnamedDani]

My Band teacher took some much needed time out of parade season practice to show us this. we lold. he told us why we dont do fundraisers other than Music Under the Stars, because he said he didnt want us to become drug dealers dawg

[LuckyStarTeen]

today in band: and u guys wanna know why i dont like fundraisers? here *clicks on video*

us:O.O

[WahlukeWarrior]

I'd make it rain reeds! lol that is hella funny

[Keelebaby]

can he come send us to disney world? lol

[MissMaryAliceAngel]

At my school, we're probably one of the only schools where being in band is COOL!!! BAND GEEKS FTW!!!! XD I think we sell candy and stuff at one point for our spring trips...we have a HUGE band too!!! This year we're going to california... XD Oh, and i'm in percussion... XD We're pretty epic, we have our own concert...not trying to brag, i promise... <3

[Danielle81895]

I'm in the band.. we sell fruit and christmas wreaths and hockey tickets.. no candy tho! Hah!

[notlad900]

I remember selling candy for band too!

[mindyhunts]

What exactly is fiending? I believe the word at 1:38 you're looking for is "feening"

[LintuLollypop]

@mindyhunts Funny, because "feening" is actually a variation of "fiending"...

[slimboyj97]

@mindyhunts no it means there addicted and really need the candy

[MrPneumonia]

@celticcountrylover OH YEAH!!! BAND GEEKS FTW!!!!!

[MrPneumonia]

Celtic

[captainmorgan757]

Notice the black guy in the front row?  Rob starts his song with great lyrics and thought; the black guy leans over to his "hoe" and says, "yo, wanna get outta here?" He remains sitting there with his head cocked off to the side and looks around at the other people laughing at the lyrics that he just cannot comprehend.

[TheSilverhawaiian]

2:17 Bought new uniforms for all my... uh, bandmates!

[BrighamHB]

@Sinisterpineapple Adam Smith was an 18th century economist. The "invisible hand" was a term he coined to explain self-regulating 'laissez-faire' economies. Rob's using the word to say that his band candy system will keep self-regulating despite his absence... the joke's a lot funnier for history buffs.

[almati03]

If I could get the chords to this that would be awesome

[joshuavalenzuela71]

please tell me the cords this sounds dope!!

[doodido3]

what are the chords?

[Mbarger67]

It's so nice to be in a band :D

[xtheaftermathx33]

haha..."do they call them 'stanzas' in rap?"

[xxxTANYAxx]

This is super! I came across your videos by chance.... and now I've had a really good evening, thanks to you!!! :0) (former 'cellist/pianist' from London, England)

Long may you continue to entertain as you do!

Wishing you every happiness, and success...

Tanya

Perhaps you'll be on stage in London sometime... I can wish!

[lowonthefoodchain]

Throwing down and drumline. Guy knows his shit.

[TheSweetp21]

Ha ha im in color guard and we do candy EVERYONE comes running lol we also do carwashes to and it works some

[LeaderoftheAwesomes]

Selling band candy turned me into a drug dealer XD

[ITheIAravisI]

"I made six figures. Bought brand-new uniforms for all of my... bandmates." =D

[ptolover7]

@ITheIAravisI That's the most hilarious part! No one in the audience seemed to get it at the time :)

[hacdan]

Anyone have an mp3 of this? I honestly could listen to this in a playlist...

[StaticOnUrFrequency]

Haha I played this in band when we started doing fundraisers for camp! ♥

[yazid3848]

Lol i like the psyche out when you get to the Figures and Bandmates rhyme haha

[193614]

I love Rob haha

[theclickbeetles]

Proof that you don't need to be dirty to be funny, just intelligent.

[ikilledmufasa1014]

We private school orchestra nerds understand where you're coming from too, Rob- we had three different fundraisers to pay for the crap buses to get us to a smelly motel when we went to perform in Disney World, while the baseball team paid $50 bucks to fly to Miami and stay in a beautiful hotel. *sigh* Unfair.

[zimmaster4]

I sell pot laced chocolate.

[LittleMissStitches]

.. I love the chorus. I don't know why, it's just so catchy.

[rockcande]

A friend from high school, just posted this to my fb wall. I love this! (:

[swimmingguy123]

@celticcountrylover Band geek and proud

[JonathanRoxAlot]

Can i get those chords?

[saxesaresexy]

haha im gonna start selling candy for band now xD

[bandchick103]

My band director showed us this video lol so true he is selling candy lol :)

[princesskyrie]

That's how I paid for my senior trip. Everybody in the senior classes were selling candy, but I had two freshmen in my drama class help me out. I sold more candy than was required to pay off the trip.

I also ticked off a teacher selling gummi bears and Toblerone for German club before class started. Won the competition, too. (Won a stupid mouse pad.)

[dracogirl1993]

lol ...I play trumpet...all sooooo true

[godly74]

3:10 someone failed

[IALON]

12 people d... oh why bother....

[maxtess66]

Yea, so i did this in my band and sold candy out of bag and made like $600 dollars for my fairshare.

[TimOvrlrd]

Best part is every word he says is true at my highschool. The only difference is its a turf war between all the different clubs; you sell on their turf and your toast.

[gimbob006]

12 people were not in band!

[nanoghg]

12 people don´t like sugar

[nanoghg]

i threw my case up and said "Say hello to my li'l friend!" LOL! XD

[VeadaTheBat]

Our teacher showed us this video and we were laughing and cheering, thanks for the tuba part XD did I mention this was band class?

[SlayerboyM88]

We've all been there!

[Chibi12345678]

12 people are allergic to chocolate

[WaryCity]

what's funny is the ad next to my video is the candy WE used to sell in Band

[PSNcallofduty]

@WaryCity lmfao drugs is the add beside mine...

[psykill2000]

hilarious

[gibby1456]

12 people do not know what funny is.

[Theroha]

damn. so that's how all the marching bands in OK get all there funding. still, me & my little KS band kicked there asses every year.

[hickersonz]

Brilliant!!!!!

[09011994]

omg, this is so true. we just started our yearly band choclate bar sale

[JQ377]

I love the ad for World's Finest Chocolate at the right. That's the kind our band sells.

[09011994]

@JQ377 us too lol

[busterbaddy1]

This is how I feel when I have candy at school XD

[JamestownAngel33]

I LOVE THIS SONG OR WHATEVER IT IS... I cant belive that i have lived in such ignorance all my life.... im a band kid.. lol

[paperkite03]

We love you, Rob! I won't throw you my panties but I'll toss you some reeds. :)

[MartinsNewTeeth]

I have SO pushed the band candy...you really were only cool during candy time

[fearthegeeklord]

Here in Scotland, we don't have 'Band Candy', however, most of the students I was at school with WERE drug dealers. :P

[MultiVirus01]

do you here the glass break in the back ground

[JesZers]

That's right, sellin Band Candy turned me into a Drug Dealer. :)

[QueenBoadicea]

@JesZers It reminds me of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Band Candy". Joss Whedon would be so proud of this!

[iamsarahjo]

yes!!! this gardie payed for her band trip freshman year with Band Candy. i can so push the band candy. =]

[QueenBoadicea]

ROFLMAOUIC. Excellent work, Rob. I especially liked that bit about selling.

[celticcountrylover]

@krazyfrogable of course it's the best thing to be!!! go band geeks!

[krazyfrogable]

My band got candy and we also got our own brand of coffee (not very good)

[krazyfrogable]

i like the lack of creativity in the chords it makes it easy to play XD

[AgentAW]

"invisible hand" is adam smith 2:08

[CabbitPatch]

We sell fruit... :P

[iamsarahjo]

@CabbitPatch dido they won't let us sell unhealthy stuff any more but i can push band fruit just as well =]

[DaleEarnhardtRIP]

12 people got busted for selling candy.

[MHSTrumpetLine]

My band director LOVES this video, he told us to not go watch it, keeping reverse psychology in mind, and now everybody loves it. The only difference between our band and RP's is that we sell gourmet sausage and cheeses instead of candy, which is way less fun...

[squirreludecker]

my band didnt get candy. our band director had the bright idea to sell Towels.  $2.50 walmart beach towels for $10.

[sadesandthesnape]

LMAO! This was so true for my band! Expecially the freshman part!

[mikiemike292]

there are 12 a-holes on the internet that happened to watch this video...

[PSNcallofduty]

@mikiemike292 im guessing they watched his other video "There's Always an A-Hole on the Internet" and didnt liekt hat it described them exactly. so they went around disliking all his videos. :P

[PSNcallofduty]

@mikiemike292 im guessing they watched his other video "There's Always an A-Hole on the Internet" and didnt liekt hat it described them exactly. so they went around disliking all his videos. :P

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@mikiemike292 really ?? you dont think we could notice that ourselfs or do you have to point everything to us or ?

[umayanarosy]

Get you Asian wife lushfmlk.info

[chucks4luck]

[jenito101]

[paperkite03]

This is my favorite! I love you, Rob. If I weren't a band geek, I'd throw you my panties. ;)

[JackeWilton]

[GamerGirlHatesJB]

This song makes my day XD

[Anime06160]

[Klayster]

I love this song!! It's super funny and I make it rain reeds too!!  Clarinet Vandoren #5's!!

[ScathingSarcasm]

[shaylagirl]

A Comedy Central Special done by Rob would kick ASS!! That would rock!!

[celticcountrylover]

BAND GEEKS ROCK!!!! (and you can only call band people 'geeks' if you're in the band.)

[krazyfrogable]

@celticcountrylover being a band geek is the best thing to be in highschool

[LightningDragon1999]

@celticcountrylover GO BAND GEEKS! W00T!

[whatthehell15848]

@celticcountrylover.....that is so true...im a band geek myself

[AnarchyNakiwarai]

[AnarchyNakiwarai]

[StaticOnUrFrequency]

@celticcountrylover lol so true!

[blackeyetheraven]

[goblue44fyi]

[Palmettovw]

OMG... this is freaking hilarious! I'm a high school band director and I told all of my students on facebook to stop what they were doing and listen to your song... it's the funniest thing I've heard in a long, long time. Keep them coming!

[coriaf91]

jJjajajajajajaj que caapooooo!!!

[clarinetluvr811]

haha my band is selling candy right now lol. i bought four bars. what? they are good

[vietkid92]

This is so true! lol. I loved when everyone would surround me in class trying to by candy and the teacher would get pissed off. xD

[benbunny1]

@vietkid92 you should go back to class its buy you idiot

[vietkid92]

@benbunny1 I'm an idiot because I spelled one word wrong? Shut the fuck up.

[djteac]

@vietkid92 @vietkid92 you gotta go easy on him. He has no friends, his family hates him... the only thing he has is correcting peoples spelling,

Even tho he doesn't know how to use the shift key....

[benbunny1]

@vietkid92 Your an idiot because you fell for one insult and had to react badly, therefore creating a reaction from the person who was messing around so now you have made a pointless argument and thus you are an idiot

[vietkid92]

@benbunny1 And you're the idiot for continuing it.

[akhy1994]

LOL.. So true.. Band always gets shit money.

[emosnowbunny]

[admiral8079]

I'm in marching band and every keeps saying that this my song, Mainly because I'm just a freshamn and I sold $1,000 worth of chocolate in just 2 weeks.And I was nothing untill the candy came around and then just as in the song,I was the cool guy I was the candy pimp.I even play the trumpet.Although I don't plan to become a drug dealer.

[drmmrz]

[maxelmusic]

[trumpetman1989]

Being a music education major, this is sooo hilarious lol

[subterraneantv]

That's so great. Reminds me when we sold donuts for Orchestra

[megadeoxys]

I thought that invisible hand line ha Ardian smith under it. It would've worked better.

[EdwardNJacobOtaku]

Lol, so true, but I transfered, and guess what! We don't have to sell a single stupid product because the band moms are obsessed and fundraise for us.

[dumblondedi77]

11 people are stupid.

[Crash8686]

Because being First Chair comes with responsibilities.

[yougotnopancakemix]

crack or crackle XD

[SchoolingAllComments]

D-minor, A7, G-minor, A7

[cheeter46]

@SchoolingAllComments how does he play his Gm?

[trailblazer225]

@cheeter46 It's either 3-1-0-0-3-3, or x-1-0-0-3-3. I can't tell if he's playing the 3 on the low E string or not. He's fretting the A string with his index finger and the highest two strings with his ring finger and pinky. If he is playing the low E string, he's fretting it with the middle finger.

[destayler94]
