Man that’s some kind of dedication of those men and women Even if music 🎶 is their Major I see it takes hard work and dedication to be so studious in a band like the NATIONALLY KNOWN TEXAS AGGIE BAND This Band makes me proud to be from the State of Texas 🤩 Especially when I hear that Noble Men Song 🎵🤩💪🏾 👏🏾🙌🏾
Fantastic band, of course, but can someone help my inquisitive side? What determines who wears breeches and riding boots and spurs? White belts versus black? Different colored braided rope on left shoulder? Thanks for any help!
Howdy. Seniors wear breeches and boots. White belts are worn by juniors and seniors. Braided rope (cords) generally signify membership in special units such as Fish Drill Team, Ross Volunteers, Mounted Calvery, OR Simpson Honor Society, etc.
@@poconofriend777 Freshmen and sophomores wear black belts and juniors and seniors wear white belts. By shoulder ornaments, you are probably referring to the cords worn on the left shoulder. They represent being a member of a special unit such as the Fish Drill Team, Parsons Mounted Calvery, Ross Volunteers, etc.
You have to be in the corps of cadets to be in the band but you don’t have to sign a future military contract to serve in the corps of cadets. Mandatory Corps membership ended in the 60s. Same time that A&M went coed.
@@TXnine7nineThank you for that explanation. I couldn’t figure out all the references to “Military Band”, and the uniforms, when Texas A&M is not a Military College. I’m sure they’ve won every competition there is - unreal quality.
Thanks so much for posting. The women in most of the marching bands I have seen are not integrated as these people are. You usually don't even see the band - just the underdressed and suggestive dancing by the women. What a waste of a great tradition. Not that I don't like women dancing - just not in this case.
It was an all male military university in College Station with the companion all female college, Texas Women's Unversity, in Denton. When women could attend Texas A&M, the military requirement was dropped. The Corp drives the culture, however.
I absolutely cannot stress enough how much I love this band, it’s style, uniform and music! GIG’ EM AGGIES!!
Wow! I've seen a lot of videos of the Aggie Band over the years but I've never seen them at ground level. This was great. Thanks for posting.
IKR 🤩💫👏🏾💯
I love counter-marches! Fun to do, hard to do well! Outstanding, ladies and gentlemen!
Thoroughly enjoyed the show.
What precision and marching skills! Holly cow! I love it! I miss it !
Everybody loves a marching band including me!
Outstanding performance.
Man that’s some kind of dedication of those men and women

This Band makes me proud to be from the State of Texas 🤩

Wow, echt klasse👍 Sehr starke Leistung. Super💪👍
très belle prestation un groupe solide, une cohésion parfaite good job !
Great drill with very little room to manoeuvre🙂
Perhaps the finest military band in the world. Bravo Zulu
hyperbole
Incredible. So unreal, it even looks like CGI sometimes.
This is clean.
I like to see them slow march that would something to be seen.
Великолепно....
They should apply for Edinburgh Tattoo in Scotland.
Whoop!
Impressive. It must be tough to hear and stay on pulse with sound delay and sound bouncing off the backside of the field.

The best band ever!
Ohio state?
@@hl9753Definitely the best in the land
What sounds are the drum majors making when they call the band to attention in the beginning?
“Recall” “step off” “on” “Hullabaloo”
Wha is the significance of the white belts with white piping on their hats?
White belts with white piping on their covers are juniors.
You can’t tell me someone hasn’t been pegged in the head with a trombone, if not several times every rehearsal.
It surprisingly doesn’t happen that often. However, one of my sophomores got a serious concussion that lasted months from getting hit, lol
@@tygerguy3804 But man that countermarch is sharp... I'm long past my prime, but I'd totally sign up for the corps just to be in the band.
What’s the song at 3:30?
Noble men of kyle
Why do some wear brown boots and some do not what’s the reason for this?
Seniors wear the boots. I just looked it up.
Brown boots are only worn by Seniors
Visto de cima deve ter ficado melhor 👍
Why some are in boots some are not??
Seniors wear boots.
@@howdyfilms349 What about the shoulder ornaments? And white vs black belt?

During WWII, some students had to go to war before they got their senior boots. Decades later, they were given their boots and were buried with them.
haha, someone lost his hat, and someone put up his hat
Can you not be a cadet and be in the band?
No.
You have to be in the corps of cadets to be in the band but you don’t have to sign a future military contract to serve in the corps of cadets. Mandatory Corps membership ended in the 60s. Same time that A&M went coed.

Freshmen, sophomore and Juniors wear normal shoes. Once they become Seniors, they switch to boots and will have their A&M ring.
Sorry guys I don’t get this at all we don’t have this stuff here. Is it a military school similar to the centinel
