This Jdog southerns whole band stops and breath together damn near every song I seen them live against grambling twice big disapointment but then again I was looking for something THAT I WAS NOT GOING TO GET A GOOD SOUND Yes they have volume but who dont. Song for song spartan legion hands down will out play them. nsu band is like the lakers coached very well by the best get new players every year and get the same results you dont have to like us or love us but respect is a no brainer
I like Southern's tuba line but they sound a mess in this clip, its like the notes are too high and they all dieing out and just 1 person is quacking random notes in the front, for all those tubas they should sound a little more fuller and take that part down if they can't play that part high throughout the whole song. They should be putting some bass in the band and not trying to play higher than the upper brass
Damnit, I couldn't agree more. I've got mad respect for the Jukebox, but all that upper brass desperately needs a full, strong brass tuba sound to complement it. Having tubas play the high octaves is like having trumpets playing low octaves below a concert C. Pointless.
There is NOTHING to like about their tuba section...they SUCK...Period!! With those 5lb fiberglass horns they should be able to put more air into it! ha!
To say that they suck is just ignorant, their parts are some of the most involved tuba parts in the swac, i guarantee you, if u were to put another tuba section in southern's shoes they would die out cuz they dont got chops like them. The Fiberglass tubas suck, but not the tuba players. The tuba players are very skilled at what they do, and if you dont hear them in clips it's probaly because they understand that they are supposed to be felt and not heard in some songs. .
Well I hope you remain anonymous just like your name says....Yes they suck...that's just my opinion...from tone to range...not very impressive. Must be the fiberglass then I guess:/ Have you ever been apart of a tuba section or even carried a horn? I ask b/c you're speaking from a 3rd person point of view...and the last comment "felt not heard"....how exactly do you feel a tuba section and not hear them? Sounds to me like THEY need to get THEIR weight up and stick with the volume of the band.
Tone will suffer on a fiberglass horn. They have range but if u try to play a pedal on a fiberglass horn it wont sound too good and IMO they have a good enough range, im sure they have pedals and u've probaly heard them playing those b flats. and yah ive been a part of a tuba section. i was like 3-4th in line for LLi when they went to march in the rose bowl. As for being felt not heard, jus think of a song you would listen to in your car. Unless u jus got the bass on high and not enjoyin the
song, if u were like listenin to the song for its lyrics and the melodie, would you really want the bass overpowering the melody. Thats what i mean by felt not heard. And southern is like a big brass band, if you listen to brass bands, when the people who carry the melodie play, the tuba player supports the melodie by playing to where the ensemble will be full and not overpowering them. When its his time to shine he'll let loose but when playin with the rest of the ensemble he is felt not heard
Enough on this topic already....when I listens to songs in MY car I hear a bass line and the melody along with other background instrumentation. Simply put...the tubas don't have enough volume to compete with the sound from the brass. Not about being felt or heard...they are just simply being drowned out and your example didn't help one bit...thanks
In all my years of playing trombone... We've always had chords thats what we are for... whether it be Jazz, Concert, Marches, whatever... we play chords... everyone has a specific job on their horn... if we dont play chords.. who will??
lol yea we do play chords but in every song........no exactly atleast in some songs we suppose to get the melody and no they dont suppose to take over the band but they should have a stong bottom.
SU tbones are not weak, but they are not as strong as they used to be. I remember in the mid 80s the tbone sound was much thicker. I remember counting like 50 - 60 one year. Sound was ridiculous. The tbones are still good, but everybody knows today it's SUs btones that you don't want to play with.
su never had 50-60 bones,,i know i marched in the 80's,,85 was the largest ever,,40+,,but they are still bringing it the same way till this day,with 35+
I love when people hate on SU, it just shows that they Envy. Suck it up, and go teach your band how to be as good. We still love you though, now go cry in the car.
Um, this sounds great. God only knows what you haterade sucking kats are talking about. Pitiful. Frankly I prefer this arrangement to the one they played in the early 90's(or was it late 80's?).
Who the hell said this sounded better then nsu! I hate SU's tuba section and drumline who suppose to be the backbone of the band! If you dont have a good rhythm section ur band is not good! Built from the bottom up not top down! Never seen or heard of a house being built other wise!
I don't go to SU and don't even like em but I was in another swac band. Anyway though, they version still sound better than NSU isht anyday. You talk about you can't builda band from top down? Well buddy thats how we do in the SWAC. Originality and defying the odds ya dig. Get wit it chump.
All of the parts are colliding into each other. There is no balance, where is the melody, where is the harmony????
