  • @eggmaster40 bruh look it's two different sounds look halftime is for entertainment that's whythey dont ask a Carolina crown, Georgia spirit or Vanguard to perform in Superbowls, NBA all star games and just in general NFL halftimes

  • omg that was amazing. I always thought marching bands were lame, but seriously you guz provide me wrong me. I have much respect for you guz now. Doing this couldn't have been easy. well done again.

  • fuckin sucks

  • OMG that was AWESOME. AMAZING..I LOVED the thriller dance. long live KING OF POP. MJ is DA BEST

  • Wide zoom. I'm not zooming in. No way dude do I need to zoom in. Oh shit babes in bikinis? I'm fucking zooming in for real!

  • And so begins the constant battle between show bands and Corp style bands.I think all the SU people on here bashing ULL need to shut up and have respect for our style.Yes i understand some are bashing SU also,and for them....SHUT UP!I respect SU and think they are simply the best HBCU band out there.This arguement will never end.Let us agree upon the fact that we have two different styles! i love marching DCI,but at the same time,i enjoy listening to SU lay down some sick shit.SHUT UP HATERS!!!!

  • @lhsdrumline07 hehe :D i also dont like haters^^

  • I'm sure the UL band enjoyed the show as much as I did.

  • that game shattered the attendance record for cajun  field too

  • that sounds pretty good but NSU has micheal songs on lock!!!!!!!!!!!

  • that sounds pretty good but NSU has micheal songs on lock!!!!!!!!!!!

  • GRAMBLING DID THIS FIRST AND IT WAS MUCH BETTER. [SOUTHERN GOT IT FROM US]

  • @princelymanner

    dude please...if grambling did do this...they got it from southern...go to the search button and hit " su vs jsu 1995" and you will see this performance which is a tribute to micheal jackson....i gsu band is ok....and im a jag trying to give you all your props but this performace is a old performance that they did back in 95 vs jsu

  • great :)

  • You won't hear me say too many good things about SU, but you just lieing if you talking bout you can't tell what songs they playing. I have said that myself at times about SU. But you just a liar if you say that bout this clip. Only way you can't tell is if you going and out of the room and catch them at a part they not got a lot of people not facting front.

  • I don't know what DCI competiton some people are talking about, but I never been to one with 60,000 people before. I been to a few BotB with 40K+ but I never seen that many at any DCI event I sent to. I musta went to wrong one

  • I will never understand why people always compare a college band to DCI.

  • @bluephi182k ...and a show band at that.

    What most hbcu's do and other bands do is totally different. I enjoy both styles (especially Texas A&M military style; that's on point!). But hey, I'm just a "band geek".

  • @srotagadirolf I really like what you said, but I need help understanding why you made that comment because this is an ol video and I don't feel like reading all the comments to understand what you are talking about.

  • Comment removed

  • @bluephi182k You said that why people are comparing a college band and dci. I made the comment that the college band that you're talking about is a show band. Now, put it in that contex...

  • POWERFUL!!

  • im trying out for tha cybol line 4sho ....

  • omg my dad goes there that is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooo cool

  • I teared up watching this, I miss my nigga.

  • the drill is great

  • Do you not thank that Show Bands work hard on there shows. I would like to see a DCI band dance and play at the same time. All bands DCI or Show put in a lot of hours i. I would bet that it's harder to teach a DCI band to marching show style than a Show band to learn DCI.

    At a football game halftime, if everyone leaves when your band take the field you are either boring or sorry. The Human Jukebox is not boring or sorry. 124,000 hits on this video says so. Win the crowd, you win halftime.

  • @KoRnyMaggalo Uhm....DCI bands don't play at football games? HA! Wow.

  • @eggmaster40 So why are you commenting? SO ULL, WCU and other are not DCI style bands? DCI bands can pick 50,000 to 60,000 people in a stadium, like Honda BOTBs than you can talk. BTW quit being such a whole ass. Yes I watch the Blue Devils and Vangard - boring!!!.

  • @eggmaster40 DCI bands are they Osmond, Show bands are the Jackson 5.

  • ,,,,

  • These Show Bands could learn a few things from DCI

    That's real marching band.

    Listen to the Cavaliers, or the Blue Devils, or Santa Clara Vanguard.

    This marching band on this video has terrible techniques. Their lines are bad, their tone is bad, and their drill is EASY.

    Listen to a real marching band.

  • @eggmaster40 DCi is Boring!!!

  • @KoRnyMaggalo Have you ever watched a DCI show? All the way through? Doubt it. Just because they don't try to dry hump their drums doesn't make it boring.

  • @eggmaster40 Watch a lot of them, most all boring as hell. Its not marching it walking. Only great DCI band I've seen is Western Carolina. Now they put on show.

    Watch next years Rose Parade and you will see WCU and my NCCU Marching sound machine. Check out NCCU @ Honda 2010. NCCU Earth song Video 3:37.

    BTW SU is brass heavy by design.

  • @KoRnyMaggalo WALKING!? Do you realize how ignorant you are sounding? Do you realize how hard it is for a band of their size to march IN STEP together with nearly PERFECT technique? Obviously you don't because your "Show Bands" can't do that. Marching doesn't involve swinging your drums around like mad men. These High Stepping Bands put bands that work hard to perform with great technique to shame!

  • @eggmaster40 -Just enjoy the show, You know and I know that you were more than impressed.

  • @blakjustice30 Obviously I wasn't impressed. It's ridiculous. They can't play with good tone.

  • @eggmaster40 Dude if you are from ull, you really can not say anything about tone. jmo

  • @eggmaster40 Also check out JSU v MSU. Watch JSU, show band and then watch MSU DCI and tell me which is not boring. BTW I do like some PWC bands LSU, UF, USC, U of Tenn and Ohio U.

  • @KoRnyMaggalo incorrect sir

  • @themainsqueeze21 On what point?

  • @KoRnyMaggalo That DCI is boring

  • @themainsqueeze21 Most of the shows I have seen would put me to sleep. See ULL halftime show. Not saying they can not play and they do not work, I know they do. Western Carolina University is the best DCI band I have seem. They go the extra mile to entertain the crowd.

  • @eggmaster40 who's to say that DCI is the measuring stick to what a marching band is suppose to look like. This is OUR style....Show style does not require 100% straight lines and a symphonic sound on the field. Its funny how people over the years diminish things they CANNOT do and the things they CAN do set as a standard. Lets see some DCI bands high step 90 degrees, do complicated dance moves and play at the same time. Clearly the crowd didn't care about who's lines were the straightest.

  • @Blakmajik78 First off, when you say "Play"? Do you mean terrible tone quality and balance? Then yes, you can play and do dance moves at the same time. And actually, the cavaliers do complicated moves, santa clara vanguard does magic tricks, and the blue devils....well they're just the blue devils. In the cavaliers show one year, they make a double helix (In case you didn't know what that means, it looks like DNA) and they made it flow up and down, or ripple.

  • @eggmaster40 Dude , I can't believe you have the audacity to compare the two styles. This is traditional style of marching with show band movement. SU does about 5 different shows during the season (Sep-Nov) DCI has ONE show for a season approx. 5 months. The sound quality will not be it's best when you play and dance at the same time. Just imagine if SU performed the same show for that length of time. Besides nobody wants to hear a concerto at a football game.

  • @Blakmajik78 When the ripple crossed, they JUMPED OVER EACH OTHER WHILE PLAYING. so...yes, DCI is the measuring stick. Just because you step higher doesn't make you better. Sorry, but your "style" is ridiculous.

  • @eggmaster40 Our style is ridiculous, well I beg to differ and so does the audience in this video LMAO...sorry DUDE, but i've followed your argument with quite a few people and you are trying to win a already lost battle. HBCU bands play CAN produce music with good tones, intonnation and good articulation. WE DO HAVE CONCERT SEASON, incase you are living under a rock. But, the history we have so greatly preserved over the years does not require that at halftime. WE ENTERTAIN using out own style.

  • @eggmaster40 Check out some of the PWC's that march Traditional / Corps style with show band steps. ( Southern Cal, Ohio U, Cal, Univ of Minn, Pitt, West Virginia,etc...

  • @Blakmajik78 If you have a hard time accepting our "style" then hey partner that seems like a personal problem, because when we step into PWC and U's, the crowd absolutely LOVE US! (I think you see that as well, but with envy) It is what it is! Our ancestors say that "People tend to hate the things they cant do or understand". I dont know the case is with you, nor do I have a damn, but I hope you come to appreciate the power of the mighty HBCU band as I do with DCI and Military bands. I'm done!

  • This is the same Thriller routine from 1994. lmao  They need to up their game.

  • you hear that little kid screaming "HE DID IT...HE DID IT"....Southern just recruited him for band about 10 years down the road...lol...Good show SU!!

  • keep the dream of alive

  • cant no schools put on a half time show like the any schools in the south..starting with schools in louisiana..my home state....all the way up to atlanta

  • @ShowtimeWeb wuts wrong with it

  • 6:42 "Mom, Ma! He did! He did the Moonwalk!"

    Priceless, I love the SWAC

    props from UAPB

  • My hubby (who's a Southern 85' Alum) and I were at this game sitting on the Southern side. After the show, we left!

  • best michael jackson tribute, right here

  • ill never forget this proformance... cant nobody touch us

  • Oh OK Southern !

  • what song is it!!!

  • i saw dem boz at the honda battle of the bandz! they had the rawest drills! them and FAMU. they looked computerized!

    BCU shouldve been there though

  • espn (.) go (.) com/sportsnation/rank?versionI­d=1&listId=512#topOfList

    VOTE FOR SOUTHERN!!!

  • I'm a Big ULL fan and i was there. LOL why did ULL's band even play? or show up for that matter? Every time they played during the game, SU's amazing band would just play at the same time and drown out the sound of ULLs band. I love how SU played michal jackson and ULL played some stupid songs from spain that no one cares about. lol poor ULL at least we won the football game!

  • Step 2 drill off the chain!!

  • wow i got too say they look better than good this was perfect mii most fav part was when they broke off into those little sections and kame back together soo perfect. . 10/10

  • They killed that mf'r......Damn...I just sounds and looks so CRISP!!!

  • " It " not I! SU education!

  • I believe he may have meant "it just sounds..."; of course you had to get a "dig" in somewhere, I understand.

  • lol look like su fans took over their stadium! represent that swac su!

  • toooo fresh!!!!

  • now THAT was fly!! Southern's trumpets got some of the cleanest screamin i've heard and those sets were amazing man, keep it up!!

  • LOL..i live off spring st. I got my ticket to the botb in early December. SU gone blow the top off the GA dome.

  • WOW!!! I wish they had their own T.V. show. Why did ULL perform.

  • Its stuff like this that makes me so proud to be a SU JAG! =)

  • Is that ULL attempting to get on the field after that!? LMAO

  • @Blakmajik78 Clearly ULL should have gone first. Poor guys lol

  • @tp2005

    My sentiments exactly.

  • haha unfortunately they did! And people went get food and drinks btw, I was there! LOL!

  • i bet the UL-Lafayette band felt like pure garbage that day!

  • @thebeauduy yeah because their box marching is superior to everything UL does =/

    and btw, Southern tone quality is awesome. totally professional.

  • I heard today that alot of bands have done micheal Jackson tributes this season. While that is somewhat predictable given who he was, judging from the number of hits Southern's first show of the season has received, I bet these band's shows probably looked very similar to this one (one of the bands was a PWS that has played Southern in the past).

  • Or PWC (college versus school).

  • @KGLOVER712 Is this Kenny Glover from California the former 1st trumpet who last played during 80-81?

  • Yep, that's me. Who is this?

  • Damn, I wished I had gotten my "lazy" but up and had gone to this game. The band showed out on the field as well as the stands. Peeps in Houston who went, came back "raving" about how "perfect" the band was (I have watched this two times already!!!).

  • A trumpet player that crabbed during 1980 but met you a year earlier in California on UCLA's campus when SU was at the Rose Bowl. I was at the Rose Bowl with the Mc Donald's All-American band and we stayed n the campus with SU.

  • Woody?

  • Yes Sir!

  • What's up boy, Mr. Lip-Trill himself. Man, when I think of the trumpet players like you and Jarvis hawkins, I'm like Damn!!!!How are you? Where you living?

  • I'm doing well. I'm in Washington, D.C. I'm checking flights for the Honda Classic to be held in Atlanta on January 30. The Human Jukebox is scheduled to be in attendance.

  • Damn man, I might try to make it. If I go, I'll need to get your cell, so we can hook up.

  • I purchased my plane ticket today. Now I need to locate a hotel near the event and make reservations.

  • I was thinking about the Laquinta Inn. I just need to check my schedule, but I'll probably get my plane tickets today.

  • I already reserved my hotel room at the Hampton Inn & Suites 161 Spring Street 3 blocks from the georgia Dome.

  • Thining back in time, I've been telling many about the crazy note you were hidding with ease with much power. I'm not hearing the power in the trumpet section like the days of old.

  • Yep, those were the days. I often think about those days and the fun we had; I worked at it, but that's with anything.

    What are you up to?

  • @thebeauduy iwas there...it was live...

  • @thebeauduy I think they enjoyed the performance as much as I did.

  • I didn't go to the game, but did the band get a standing ovation for the show?

  • stop trying to scam people for their email info on Michael's shit, you asshole. Get a real job and a life.

  • i have always been a huge famu fan,but this is incredible! the BEST m.j. tribute thus far !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Man how many people need to see this? that view counter is wrong

  • This was one of the best, if not best shows of the season, content as well as execution.

  • @tsugunes apparently, you did!

  • Being an ASU Marching Hornet. I must give Southern their props. This show was good.

  • why they only got 1 Drum Major?

  • you only need 1 leader.

  • @moore2hold tradition

  • This is an amazing performance.  5 stars

  • BRAVO BRAVO!!!!

  • best halftime all year

  • It's interesting watching this now, since my older brother's at this college. I don't know why I didn't bother looking it up before! The formations looked pretty cool, and seemed to vibrate with all that bobbing going on. Awesome group, good performance.

  • I wish the people who posted some of these down right inmature comments would grown up and learn how to speak english instead of N this and F that! I don't care of upi are representing SU or FAMU. These comments are down right degrading! You are disgracing both schools with this kind of language!

  • And I wish people wouldn't try and judge other people who they don't even know...And ur opinion of me isn't important to me!!!! Once again I will say opinions are like assholes everyone has one....If u got virgin eyes and ears maybe u should go on virgin tube!!!!!!!!

  • @amphowar You sound alot better than your previous post!I congratulate you on that. THis is the way a intelligent conversation is suppose to sound like! Only assholes are the only people who do not care what they say or who is reading their posts! This was not an opinion, your dialogue was posted 3 days ago. It was a fact! Their are alot of ULL people reading these posts!

  • U know what Much respect to ya I apologize if I offended u......I can't do nothing but respect ya...U not being disrespectful or over-tha-top rude...U just speaking on how u feel respectfully...I appreciate dat!!!Again...if i offended u please forgive me!!!!!

  • @amphowar No need to aplogize amphor, just wanted you to be aware that other people are reading these posts. Just didn't want them to have something to talk about if you know what I mean!

  • I know exactly what u mean maam *wink*!!!!lol

  • @amphowar How much do FAMU pay U to hate on SU homie....

  • Look dude i feel tha i feel just like u do!!!My opinion isn't gonna change until I feel someone shows me different...until then we just agree to disagree...and that's it....If u go to SU i don't expect u to say we better than yall just like u shouldn't expect me to do tha sameIIIIIAnd if I'm receiving my payment from FAM they paid me a Bachelor's and a Masters....I guess business is Good!!!!!!

  • woooooooooooooow mike jack PLaisance middle Northwest High Southern University  dey recked it

  • dude killed that michael jackson.

  • SU! SSSSSSU! Go Jags! Can't wait until I get there in fall of 2013!

  • Southern the badest band around these days!!

  • lmao at 6:40 that boy was a bit too happy about that dude doing the moonwalk. but southern CRASHED it. expect me there in 2013 lmao

  • U know we are doing something right when niggas keep coming to our page and commenting, maybe one day the haters can contribute to SOUTHERN. Amphowar, nigga you are so lame, you was just on A&T's page commenting, now you on Southern's page, nigga do you have an life, and if I were you I would not direct someone to some boring ass FAMU for entertainment. That would be Norfolk, A&T, and BCU out of the MEAC. Not some oversized boring ass FAMU.

  • WOW dis video impressed me its tha first video i seen SU do a field show great job
