You all will be very pleased this upcoming 2012 year..... There will also be no Whitney Houston show because everybody is doing that. But the boom is back. Dowell taylor has the boom sounding like the 1989 motown band. The get ready sounds identical to the way it was played at motown at todays practice
Thats why they are the best band in the SWAC. JSU and BCU are my top bands. JSU can bring it without soundin like garbage. control is keyyyyyy and they definitely have it.
@Beast19 as a side note I was really hoping SU or JSU would win the SWAC so they could run into NSU, LAWD that would've a battle as well as a lesson! For now that's just a thought but maybe some time in the future...
@djunior2011 I thought it was the Fab 5 but thank you for the correction if I'm wrong in the name... Nevertheless, I still wanna see something different from JSU
JSU is one of my favorite bands in ALL of HBCU! As a former Drum Major I'm LOVIN' the "Fab 5", but in all honesty I wish I could be surprised just ONCE with your field show. Everything seems so anticipated and there's no "WOW" factor after watching you all for so long. I love your sound but even THAT can't carry through an entire show. Now in the stands NO ONE can match you, but PLEASE - and I'm asking as a fan - PLEASE do something different with your show. Signed, A True Fan
@Beast19 Identical to the the band that marched in 89 just like they sound almost identical to the band that marched in 2000. Beyond that the arrangements that they write are on another level compared to any one in the SWAC with their only competition music wise coming from MEAC bands, and that 2 or 3 tops. This alone places SU ahead of most bands that compete against. JSU is a great band but they have many years left to stay at the level they are to consistently become a threat to SU, BCU, FAMU
@Beast19 and Norfolk, the bands that consistently give you the same product year in and year out. This is why JSU in my book is not the best, but is one of the greats. Those 4 bands i mentioned give you the same intensity on the field, in the stands, at a parade, year in and year out. Even the years they are lacking they still are beasting over most everyone else, (03 SU, 06 BCU, 07 FAMU, 08 Norfolk). If JSU can't be matched in the stands what happened in BR for the Boombox classic this year? :)
@GVocalz3 I am a former student at SU. i atrend A&T now so that Norfolk battle with either of the SWAC powerhousesis long overdue. But I am not bias toward any one band. I love J State, but they are not the most consistent and in sound nor performance. You brought up SU, yes in my opinion the are the blueprintfor a consistentband, they sound almost...
@Beast19 you must be an SU fan, I'm not taking anything away from SU but as I stand on my comment. Anyone can get caught from year to year but JSU's sound is consistent, I believe they bring a dynamic that SU lacks. Yes they're a powerful band but there's more to it than just power, those two bands are the best in the SWAC in my opinion though,...
@djunior2011 Naw Im a mature TSU fan. It seems that everyone but you knows the Boom and the Crats played Big Ballin every year since the song came out. Know your history before you step on your lips youngin. The first one free. Dont let it happen again.
Woooooooooo...... GOTTA LOVE THE BOOM-3 ! @11:50 my heart melted and the ending was just... ugh.... they did a great job !! and umm.... yea -_- that announcer gotta go !!!!!
I like all bands in Swac,Meac,Siac,but JSU is the best.They set themselves far apart from others with that big band sound and tradition.I been studying bands for over 20 years and JSU have stood out the most.But I do like AAMU homecoming at halftime,they play some good music.ASU is good too.MVSU and the Corn gettin better.SU,now them folks sensitive about their band,but they are good not like JSU....
Overall good show lacking that wow factor. Band wasn't nsync together as they hit the yardlines during the drills therefore making the crooked lines obvious. Also the DM to the far left should be standing on the same yardline as the one to the far right. They weren't n it didn't look right. Jsettes were superb as usual. JSU has improved on their drills n sound. They are definitely in the top 5 of HBCU bands.
They should have at least played a Whitney song. I think it's something that's taken away from people's opinion of the BOOM this season. They could have played Saving All My Love or something from Body Guard soundtrack once
The way I see is that SU and JSU....yes they are powerful bands. To me the way they play is good showing a different style. If you pay attention their songs sound beautiful. While bands like BCU and FAMU play a good quality music and they also sound beautiful but if your going to compare, compare SU against JSU because SU and JSU styles of playin are different from bands like BCU FAMU AND SCSU
When you don't mention The Aristocrats as being one of the best musically inclined bands then you can't be taken seriously. The bands that focus on quality of sound rather than volume and brass intensity would have to be FAMU, BCU, The Aristocrats, and Norfolk State give or take a few. Southern and Jackson, with all do respect are brass ball-busters rather than musical technicians. Let's keep it real when analyzing our top HBCU's. Don't hate, just try to musically relate.
lol -__- I'm a beast. I be all up there. don't be worried about me. read my 1st comment. I was taught that screaming, especially as much as they were doing during the drill wasn't good. and after listening to them and how messy it sounds, I understand why. I can almost guarantee that the notes weren't written that high either.
way, way too much screaming from the trumpets for my taste. screaming doesn't make a good section. and from what I was taught doing all that during the drill is a no-no. and I thought su was bad about it. this is coming from a trumpet player btw.

I get chills everytime I see them form JSU!!!!! JSU ROCKS THE HOUSE!!!!!
This is a pretty good show. I see why everyone was talking about it
Whooo! Im so ready to see them

Perfect way to start a show. The mics kinda were off im not sure if it was the camera or the mics at honda. Great Show.
Push Up On It INTRO!!!
Nice job JSU! I ain't mad at y'all!
@Beast19 as a side note I was really hoping SU or JSU would win the SWAC so they could run into NSU, LAWD that would've a battle as well as a lesson! For now that's just a thought but maybe some time in the future...
Tubas humpin #DawgTeam
That was awsome
lol JSU has THEEE longest field show intro, I love it tho!
that field show was that deep no lie!
@djunior2011 I thought it was the Fab 5 but thank you for the correction if I'm wrong in the name... Nevertheless, I still wanna see something different from JSU
MELLOS!!!!!!!!!! Especially in "Push Up On It" by Rihanna! Wheew!!
Btones and Mellos went in on H.A.M... my favorite song from JSU this year
ASU vs. BCU in the 2012 Meac Swac Challenge!!! Mighty Marching Hornets battle it out with the Marching Wildcats! I know I'm going to be there!

@GVocalz3 I thought they was called the Jackson 5

If I don't hear HAM again next season, Im'a be PISSSSED OFF!!!
jsu is always one of the best

Loved how da cymbals kept doin different stuff 7:19 - 10:46!
lol Ik he just missed the "J" but it's still funny that the announcer says "SU rocks the house"

I think they tried to play TSU Funk AGAIN!!!!! That just made the SHC 10x better for 2012
So...I'd watch the drummajors all day. Js.
LOL someone left there hat
what songs were they marching in formation to in the beginning?
@Beast19 you must be an SU fan, I'm not taking anything away from SU but as I stand on my comment.

Facts 💯💪 💪 I'll agree with you just n su owns the swac period 👌
@djunior2011 Naw Im a mature TSU fan. It seems that everyone but you knows the Boom and the Crats played Big Ballin every year since the song came out. Know your history before you step on your lips youngin. The first one free. Dont let it happen again.
Whats the name of the song the j settes danced too
Nina Killin it wit that Hair cut
@GVocalz3 Fab 5 is BCU.....our dm are the J(jackson)5
dem mellos doin sumthin serious on HAM
Woooooooooo...... GOTTA LOVE THE BOOM-3 ! @11:50 my heart melted and the ending was just... ugh.... they did a great job !! and umm.... yea -_- that announcer gotta go !!!!!
@DaProtegeTBone2013 no tsu played alot of jsu stuff....for example "big ballin & party dont stop"
Lolz We always play Blowing into Get Ready
Tbones took up almost the whole song
Who is we? If you talking bout BCU, we all small compared to yall and FAMU. You both got a million people in band
I like all bands in Swac,Meac,Siac,but JSU is the best.They set themselves far apart from others with that big band sound and tradition.I been studying bands for over 20 years and JSU have stood out the most.But I do like AAMU homecoming at halftime,they play some good music.ASU is good too.MVSU and the Corn gettin better.SU,now them folks sensitive about their band,but they are good not like JSU....
Mike Davis exactly
@GVocalz3 is this a hazing band
Rihanna-Push Up On Me
I thought JSU was the Jackson 5 and I thought Alabama State was the Fab 5?
it luks so pretty !!!!!!!!!! it looks like J S U walkin side to side
I've seen the band this season. Get Ready doesn't sound a whole lot different to me.
i swear the mics and shit fucks everything up... they make the timing sound off smh but great show JSU
WTH is in the middle of he endzone?
Overall good show lacking that wow factor. Band wasn't nsync together as they hit the yardlines during the drills therefore making the crooked lines obvious.

Like sum colleges
5:46 bad :/.... need to get those lines and diamonds straight.. other than that good job JSU!
Announcer could try singing "Rocks Da House" more than one time like the band is doing
the dance essemble piece was beautiful but as far as the j-settes i seen them do a better field food
I wonder whose idea it was to use the dance ensemble
@jsutpet50 so was i... and we never did that before... and since that's wat its suppose to look like good job for them then.. thanks for the info
I AM N DA BAND I MA GO TWE BATTLE OF THE BANDS
Teehee 3:23 is a smiley face:-)
@djunior2011 So JSU wrote and copywrighted Big Ballin' and Party Dont Stop? PPL like you with these asinine comments.

What happened to the drumline they small af' dat shit look weird as hell
But

@GVocalz3 In the stands no one can match them? What world are you living in. SMH
dance rountine was kinda boring
JSU halftimes be boring as hell. The entrance be alright tho. The Drum majors are always on point when they are marching in. thats it tho.lol
Man this announcer is so annoying bro. I couldn't even finish watching
Very LACKLUSTER!
way, way too much screaming from the trumpets for my taste. screaming doesn't make a good section. and from what I was taught doing all that during the drill is a no-no. and I thought su was bad about it. this is coming from a trumpet player btw.
