Frankly, I don't think the questions above would be helpful at all. While many band directors have or make the time for their own performing many fine ones do not.
Not all school music departments have adversarial relationships with the athletic department either.
I would be more interested in how he or she views marching band, fund raising (ugh), challenges, private lessons, festivals, parents groups, chair placement, section imbalances, etc.
I would be curious what their favorite pieces in the concert band rep are.
The best thing of all would be to get a group together and actually go through a concert band rehearsal.
