Best dang halftime show by a band, EVER!!!

[DrumRoll]

The Southern University Band put on the most impressive halftime show I have ever seen. Hat's off to their originality...

That was the funnest half time show I have ever seen. Great music selection and awesome performance.

I felt bad for our band having to follow that performance.

No kidding...talking about a tall order to fill...

Southern is a "show" band. They are entertainers. The "Pride of Acadiana" are awesome also. We have a bunch of very talented musicians. Its like trying to compare a rock band and an orchestra. You just cant do it.

I guess they work hard to be the best, and they are. I enjoy the Pride as well, but they don't have the same sense of fraternity and are not as competitive as SU. I think that's ok. They are who they are. They play our fight song with pride and make gamedays special.

It seem that I read on here that we would be surprise at the preformance of the UL band. Same old stuff. When I could hear them, unlike the SU band, it sames like they were playing silent night. A standing ovation for SU band and a few claps for UL. You could tell in their faces that they knew they were in for it.

Again, you can not compare the two bands. Southern is louder simply because of the instruments they have. 10 trumpets will be louder than 5 trumpets and 5 flutes anyday.

I think the consensus is GET LOUDER! Football fans (for the most part) don't care about technical perfection and straight lines. They're drunk, rowdy, and at an entertainment event. Entertain them.

And of course they're going to compare the two bands! One band played right after another. That makes the comparison easier, in fact.

We don't have to be "Southern", but we can be more like Troy or dare I say it (LSU).

They have high quality bands that energize the crowd. I know I'm getting old, but I have to strain to hear our band. When Southern's band played last night, we had to stop our conversations. Concerts can be played in Angelle Hall, we need a football band.
