Growing up in Norfolk it was always the Spartans that shutdown any show. All other HBCU bands looked at the Green and Gold as the standard. But now I must concede sheer dominance to NC A&T as the most premier band amongst all Black college bands. I have yet to see them live but can only imagine the joy and excitement. From Virginia my friends you are respected, admired, and beloved.
Freaking Fabulous. It feels so good to hear a HBCU band put effort into the "quality" of their sound rather than the "volume" of their sound. Great Job.
!FABULOUS!, ENTERTAINING, MAXIUM EFFECT, POWERFUL… PLEASING TO THE PALATE. CORDS ARE BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL. THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US FOLK HERE IN LOS ANGELES … BRING THAT SHOW TO LA PLS?
That "Lately" is one of thee best arrangements Ive had the pleasure to listen to in my life, I will write at this level one day. IN THE MEAN TIME THO, IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN GET MY BAND TO PLAY THIS ARRANGEMENT??? Its a must have!
I'm not Thomas (obviously) but I am a member of Cold Steel and honestly the best way to inquire about all that important stuff is to go ahead and call the band center and/or email Ron and Harvey (our percussion director and instructor). They'll put you in touch with the right people to get you the info you need; not that Thomas won't but sometimes you don't want to have to wait on a UA-cam comment response. I've seen your choppin vids man keep it up bro
@Thomas, I'm in 11th grade and i just took the ACT yesterday for the first time and i want to be in this band. I play snare drum and have made Superiors at State Solo and Ensemble. What do you think is a good score to get scholarship academically and what is this earliest a person can audition?
Man I marched for A&T and WSSU. But A&T keeps taking it up like 10 notches!! NCCU and WSSU it's gonna be hard to get on they level man. NC A&T is the total package!! There is nothing that isn't good there.
Was ECSU in this? Let me find out they moving up. They use to be a lil spot on the map lol. I support the Vikings too I'm closer to them was just sayin glad to see them improving.
Bruh calm down with that! I'm gonna let no one talk bout my school. Before you call someone out at least know your information because wssu is no one's trash. Stop trying to start drama just leave my school name alone we haven't slandered nor bothered your name we are better than that.
Why must you bring other schools into this. I and youtube have seen this same show for the past 3 weeks I would hope it would be perfected. That was our homecoming show they did a great job hands down just don't bring down my hbcu cause your band has flaws just like everyone else.
