Hi Manny,
Here is a list of excuses that were common in my old school band when one had to explain why one missed a rehearsal..
Band Master Question :
Why weren't you at rehearsal last Thursday?
Band Member Answer (pick one) :
1. Had to go down down with my mother!(in our local accent , Waterford, Ireland.. it sounded like hatago down town wime mudder...
)
2. Had to buy new shoes for band. (insert any item of band uniform there instead of shoes)
3. Had to get a hair cut
4. Had to pick up my little sister from school. (hata pick up me lil sisder from skule)
5. Had detention at school. (held back after school for.. misbehaving!)
6. Sore lips (it was a brass band, chapped lips, common excuse winter time! lip balm was for girls!!)
7. I had to attend extra study periods (very unlikely)
8. * this is the star answer ... I FORGOT!
Hope you find these useful.. if you need a dep when you want to bunk off, you can fly me over!
