LOL. Well, I was going for something non-pejorative, but that one has legs.

P.S.  Don't give away our age, Dean, by saying "stage band"!  That

Wild Women!

I didn't know that! It was certainly the term in use when I was in
high school in the late 70s, and still used by a band director friend
of mine in the 80s. But I've been completely out of touch with that
world for about 20 years now.
