As a lifelong musician I have to say it is inspiring to see kids doing something they love. Your conductor is a great man. I only wish that while I was in the Navy band we did something as fun as this.
I freakin' LOVE this !! I wish they played stuff like this when *I* was in school. I hated those boring marches. Made me just wanna march right outta there, lol FANTASTIC rendition -- and I love the way the band director really gets into it and gets that energy goin'! KUDOS kiddos!!
I have watched a few different videos of these kids playing. What this man has done with them is totally fantastic!! You can tell they are as totally into it as he is! They are awesome!!!
I know it's about the music, but can we talk about the one girl that is actually holding the other in the air? I know the other girl isn't that heavy, but still, she's holing her in the air. BY HERSELF.
Absolutely brilliant, I think things like this should be used in more and more schools and colleges to get kids into playing live music and feeling the rush of performing. Well done to everybody involved, pure class!
holy crap, every little bit of this video makes me happy. the kids being able to perform this in a university band -- the kid that gets to yell BULLS ON PARADE -- totally pimp conductor -- even the love red shirt girl gets in the comments, and we all know UA-cam comments are not generally known for their supportiveness, but even the internet knows joy when it sees it. God this makes me happy.
George Mason RULES! Here's my all-time favorite quote from the man himself: "To disarm the people is the best and most effective way to enslave them." - George Mason What a smart man he was! May his spirit live on forever.
I repost the rehearsal every year to my page. As a flute player and A Rage fan I love every second of this. Anyone want to DM me the music so I dont have to transcribe it would be awesome!...Rock on Red Shirt Girl, thanks for making us cool!
I spent the whole first half of the video staring at that chunky dude in the upper left of the screen just bopping around doing nothing, but then BAM, them pipes.
FANTASTIC what great energy gives me goosebumps every time I watch it...LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT incredible band I would love to watch them live GO GREEN MACHINE!!!
I love how in the beginning instead of a manly voice screaming like it is in the actual show, you get a bunch of band girls screeching their little hearts out. Props to the band anyways. :P
And all the cheerleaders in front are completely oblivious to the greatness going on behind them. I come back here at least once a year to watch this all over again.
This teacher should get a raise! Seeing kids loving music and playing their hearts out is the most amazing thing I've seen in … forever. AMEN!
AGREED!!!
You had me until amen
And he came to the basketball match with style!
All band directors should have their own pimp cane.
best reply ever
Band director is pimpin'!!!!!!!!!!
Yes lol
We might not have the best sports teams, but we have the best freaking band!
The band leader with the pimp suit and can is my hero.
George Mason is now my favorite college in America.
yeah i spotted red shirt girl in the front row. i want to marry her
darius rogers dem girl in red a hardcore metalhead XD

+darius rogers Where dude? They're all wearing yellow shirts you nitwit
+darius rogers haha. yeah red shirt girl rocks it out. she should always wear that red shirt though. lol
She's there man. Great red's girl.
Good to see the piccolo player is continuing to lose her shit.
Spread this to everyone you know. Love to see this version go viral too
The game.... Music director is pimp as fuck!
Why, cause he is black?
Hahaha. No. The suit with the cane, or baton, or whatever that thing is called. All he needs is a feathered hat.
Jason Chambers
Haha, ok.
larrybagina That was the best reply... the very best. LOL
Jason Chambers its called a pimp stick
The brass section is incredible amd the band teachers pimp stick is perfect. Rage wouldnt have it any other way.
Hardcore rocker flute girl!

You're a band geek--and I think I might love you.
As a lifelong musician I have to say it is inspiring to see kids doing something they love. Your conductor is a great man. I only wish that while I was in the Navy band we did something as fun as this.
Not enough cowbell
I don't know what's more awesome, the band playing rage or the fact that their conductor is rocking out with a pimp stick.
This. That shit. There. It was brutal.
This has got to be the best pep band I've ever heard
Still can find the girl in red in this video. Middle front row. Yellow headband. Watch. I guarantee its her.
Dude.....my kids....need to go to THIS university!
What a great band! Thankyou for the headsup Rude Tube.
I freakin' LOVE this !! I wish they played stuff like this when *I* was in school. I hated those boring marches. Made me just wanna march right outta there, lol FANTASTIC rendition -- and I love the way the band director really gets into it and gets that energy goin'! KUDOS kiddos!!
Dude, their director is fucking jammin.
I have watched a few different videos of these kids playing. What this man has done with them is totally fantastic!! You can tell they are as totally into it as he is! They are awesome!!!
Best. Conductor. Ever.
They have the Best music teacher EVER!
I know it's about the music, but can we talk about the one girl that is actually holding the other in the air? I know the other girl isn't that heavy, but still, she's holing her in the air. BY HERSELF.
Yea, I noticed that too, very strong for her size!
Doc Nix's talent and red shirt girl's amazing and awesome energy!!! Best pep band in the world bar none!!!
Man i wished that i had such a cool teacher in my school years.Great job everyone.

as a rage against the machine fan i totally approve this
Whoever organised this is my new hero.
i love the director. i wish i to have him in my collage
Damn the singer can yell. Much respect man! He even got the "UNGH!" right
Piccolo girl is my spirit animal-
That teacher came in to the game with style. Love it!
Amazing! All school's music should do this.
Absolutely brilliant, I think things like this should be used in more and more schools and colleges to get kids into playing live music and feeling the rush of performing. Well done to everybody involved, pure class!
Love how they got the Final Four Banner in the shot.
Fuckin' COWBELL!
needs more cowbell!!!
I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!
He'd be doing his entire school a disservice if he didn't play that hell outta that thing!
GO GMU! GO PATRIOTS!
Proud to be an alum, class of 2010!

Man, this was badass!!! Red shirt girl knows how to get DOWN with the groove! I wish she had her own band and was on Instagram or UA-cam or TikTok!
we need more music professors like him with south park chef's attitude
Our high school plays this and is amazing
Is their drum major...a pimp?
Im glad the freedom spirit is still there it dosent need tv
holy crap, every little bit of this video makes me happy. the kids being able to perform this in a university band -- the kid that gets to yell BULLS ON PARADE -- totally pimp conductor -- even the love red shirt girl gets in the comments, and we all know UA-cam comments are not generally known for their supportiveness, but even the internet knows joy when it sees it. God this makes me happy.

What a smart man he was!
May his spirit live on forever.
Just noticed the electric Violin in the front row. Nothing more badass than that! You guys are amazing
It's about time -- a school band that really rocks! GO GREEN MACHINE BAND!
If more school band conductors were more like this guy, kids would line up to be in the school band! There would be a waiting list to get in!
Amazing rendition. You guys are fantastic. And your band leader is great for picking this.
I want season tickets to every freakin sports game this school got so I can hear this band......
Amazing live version!

I might have joined band if I knew they had this much fun
Loved it!..Thanks for sharing....AWESOME! Go team!..:)
THIS. IS. AMAZING.
Fantastic job !!!
And all the cheerleaders in front are completely oblivious to the greatness going on behind them.
I come back here at least once a year to watch this all over again.
Yep, about a year later, came back again.
I like this so much a rock song that could even be used in a James Bond Film and no guitars that makes this special.
I love the brass at back, look how high they're going
THAT WAS EFFING AWESOME!!!!!!
This is freaking Awesome!
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! good job G.M. Band
