How is this not musical people these are actually the top musicians in the nation it is very very very hard to enter this band all of those kids are basically on scholarship like you have to be a 4 or 5 star musician to get in that band. SU is amazing and everywhere they go people are amazed at their precision and musician ship maybe if y'all knew something about the band then y'all would know. SU has performed at Sugar bowls, Presidential parades and Super Bowls like they are a 5 star band.
People say SU sounds like crap cause they aren't used to this. The guys are not trying to outblow each other that is just how it was written but if you here them play it from 2011 it was cleaned up. SU is not garbage b/c they were ranked #1 by USA Today many times and were voted the #1 best dressed band in the nation by fashion weekly. I love LSU ok I'm a huge fan but you can't say their band is better than SU.
Both bands are completely awesome. I marched in an HBCU band and I am a huge LSU fan. These are two completely different programs so it is hard to compare them. LSU is prided as one of the best marching bands, they are actually ranked the best band in the SEC. SU has a great program and I remember watching them perform and thinking they were the best. It takes more than numbers a lot of loud notes to be a good band.
In all honesty, I do not think there was anything musical about it. I respect Southern for there reputation, but all technical ability and musical skill is thrown out the window. They are a big band with a big sound, but in order to accomplish that big sound they just blow. It distorts the tones and you can even here people hanging over. Musicality is about precision.
Hell yeah it's musical. I get so tired of the sorry no name midwest, and east coast bands hating all the time. Who are you? Where are you? And why do you think all of you are somebody?
su has a great reputation and i respect them as one the best bands in the land. truly i like hbcu show bands better than core style bands. to the hbcu society they like the bands with power and strenght and i respect that. it's that they can be bladdy sometimes when they push their limits on the their instrument to play high or loud. however su doing a fieldshow will blow lsu away
Dude this is Southern University not LSU. I don't know the point of this video, but if a person truly loves music there is no debate. Both bands are good and I respect both styles. If you want to be technical about it I seriously doubt that Sousa would care for any of today's marching bands.
On this particular clip, the good: it sounds like SU has alot of great individual musicians. the bad: each one of them are trying to be heard individually over one another. the ugly: I can pretty much hear each one of them individually.
Lol...this is SU, the greatest marching band on the land. However, to all of you that oppose, SU has been playing this song forever. Their version is very close to the original; LSU couldn't even attempt to play these syncopated rhythms or at the extended ranges. Is it musical? YES!
This is absolutely not The Golden Band From Tiger Land. Please change this, as members from both Southern and LSU are very offended that you've mixed us up.
LSU's version is as Hype as Southern's if you were to put both bands in a stadium together and had them play this song....SU would blow LSU out the stadium because they blow louder and sound amazing when they blow loud but LSU also has a different kind of Band where they don't push their instruments to the limit as for Southern does
@123bmogoon That's not over playing that's how SU was built and designed they practice playing like that and it's a technique matter of fact many bands envy them that they have changed their sound to compete with SU how about you take the time out to watch their halftime shows and stands a good one is when they played ULL in 2009.

The difference is SU plays the song for length and hype while LSU just repeats the notes over and over again that it actually ruins the rhythm.
