Shhhh...no one asked you.

My guy this isn't the 1950s...

@@torreywilliams6154 This comment sounds very disrespectful where you don’t have enough common sense to know that you won’t stay young forever hopefully bc some don’t make it to 40, 50, or 60 years old. Life is fragile and isn’t guaranteed to even make it to 30 years old. Majorette baton twirling is a dying art bc girls don’t know how to twirl a baton so they turn to this dance or whatever they call it bc it’s not true dance nor chorus line dance. It looks more like pole dancing done in strip clubs or a series of poses that these girls without proper dance training are trying to make look legitimate. In other words, niggas trying to make something wrong look and be right instead of getting the training while the adults educators (I.e., band directors and school administrators), get with “the program” than insist excellence by training like the older adults did us yuppies when it was instilled in us to be able to do what our “white counterparts” do. But now, people are so willing to give in to keeping peace or social acceptance than do what is right and correct; thereby, no baton twirlers and sadly, no real dance training but girls looking like “pole dancers”. This has also produced young people who disrespect their elders and make fun of age that they will learn to regret some day hopefully. So run along to your “high chair” to realize how foolish and stupid your response sounds bc twirling was done in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and 2000’s. They still have programs to teach baton twirling with competitions which I hope will not die just yet. It is the parents who let television raise their children instead of them; lack of going to Church and exercising discipline to teach their children INTEGRITY and RESPECT; and giving them phones and games instead of sending them to dance and twirling schools while kids got excited about marching bands and wanted to change things bc they didn’t have the training!!! Our “culture” has become uncouth and don’t even have sense enough to know it with apologies to the few parents who did do right. So again, run along bc that training in academics and this art paid for my college education and degree. Let’s see even one of these girls do that with the overly redundant pole, excuse me, pose dancing!!! I ain’t mad at cha’ but there’s just no real excuse for ignorance!!!

@@torreywilliams6154 Just so you will know, uncouth means clumsy. awkward, and unpolished. Some of them have gotten better but posing is not dancing!!! You’ve got a right to your opinion but be correct.

Sounds whack af

@@o.emmanuel666 What is whack af mean? That was high school not college which was an HBCU. But you're entitled to your opinion and so am I. I was in band from the 7th grade through college and I know what a good band is and sounds like along with concert band too. So don't pretend you don't know that Chicago was a good White group of the 70's that was well liked. Everybody, White and Black, liked their music. But maybe you don't know. Furthermore, my HBCU band in college was good and marched close to a hundred playing all the r&b of the 70's including Earth, Wind, and Fire to say a few. So don't take it personal if I say that my high school band sound just as big and just as good as this band's halftime performance. My college band was very good too and we played a wide range of music besides the r&b. This music is a little stiff especially for an HBCU band.

@@leahmiller7513 still whack af

@@o.emmanuel666 I could care less bc I think those dancers are whack af; whatever that means. They're missing their poles since they don't or can't twirl batons. That music is tired too. There are plenty of introduction music aka fanfares that sound better. You have a nice day and go get music lessons so you will know the difference.

@@leahmiller7513 drink your haterade and go, Karen

...The honeybees...

Lets not do this please. Unless you go or went to Alabama State University, don't ask questions about a band program you know little or nothing about 😒

@janis Williams not on the team, neither is Niyah

She was offered a second year captain position, but declined to focus on being a college student. She is in her senior year as a Chem major and will continue on to get her Doctorate of Pharmacy degree (her ambitions since she was in high school). She is also DD4L Head Assistant Coach for Birmingham, AL. (Those Chemistry classes are no joke since the labs take up far more time than the classes. I was a Biology major undergrad and same for our labs.)
