  • 3:21 = fucking epic

  • They march like they're drunk. At least compared to the real big 10 bands. Kudos to them for being famous though.

  • too sad there are many place empty in the stadium

  • Comment removed

  • lol. i didnt c it says theyd be doing usher

  • reading these comments is like watching "idiocracy".....everybody is stupid...this isn't a good marching band. this is a good entertainment group.like the OU marching 110. they don't do much marching and when they do its incredibly simple.and they dance... plus they just play pre written songs that weren't made for a marching band. just popular songs.if you want to see good marching bands watch any DCI videos.

  • @dshsdrumline14 I feel like a marching band's job is to entertain. This marching band is very southern style influenced, but they're still a marching band. They bring spirit to football games and do what a marching band is suppose to do. DCI isn't a marching band, it's a marching unit. They're made to be artsy and win competitions. They're good at what they do, but to compare the two different concepts is idiocy.

  • so...many...trumpets.... :D

  • there mascot needs to be a condom :P

  • 0:00

  • who was the first man to step on the moon an alumni of USC FIGHT ON!!!

  • @DVSHFTW And furthermore, I have no desire to go to USC because A&M is a better school which, coincidentally, offers my intended major and is in-state. If you want to become an astronaut - go to A&M (we've turned out one or two). If you want to be a veterinarian - go to A&M. If you want to be a meteorologist or geologist or psychologist - go to A&M. I'll keep my opinions, you keep yours.

  • @DVSHFTW My disapproval of corps-style bands has nothing to do with work or drive - you'd know that if you also knew that the Aggie Band practices up to 40 hours a week, often in the morning, because they learn a new show every week. And just so you know, military-style doesn't mean marching up and down the field in a boring fashion all halftime - go find a video of the band's Four Way Cross-Through and maybe that'll change your mind.

  • I LOVE MARCHING BAND!!!

    BAND GEEKS FOREVER!!!

  • yeahhh! . .,i feel like getting my trumpet and join them! , lol it's so fun being in a band! . ., :)

  • nice!!!!! Trombones are the asomest

  • LOOOOL

  • 0:35 toilet paper stuck to his foot? lol

  • @EpicalWIN Aw...beat me to the comment, but yeah, haha

  • 3 words: LIKE A BOSS!

  • this video is amazeing! i love usc i cant wait to get get out of high school to join this band hopefully if i can get a scholarship there fingers crossed<3 ^___^

  • And that includes wearing military uniforms.

  • Not to hate, but I just don't feel that corps-style bands are all that great. I personally prefer military bands, especially the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band from Texas A&M. And I am speaking from experience, as I'm in a high school band now. I just feel that a MARCHING band should actually march, not prance around the field at 152 BPM. No "sliiding," either...

  • @Texijapi1010 hey bro just to let you know...it's great that your in band and competing for the UIL's premiere band competitions...but College band is about putting a show on and having fun...there isn't competitions in college...your fucking retarded for even coming onto this and talking shit about USC, just because you know you don't have the work ethic or the drive or the pride to make it there...and experience...your probably an freshman so stfu...Juniors Rule :D

  • Moving to America for highschool/college band!!

    Lol'ing at the trombonists grinding their trombone! xP

  • Danm !! 1st time watching u guys , & i gotta admit ya good i was impressed.... USC <3

  • are theUSC trojans mostly asians?

  • @kholdfire11 What?  No.

  • @vranish It´s like ironic. He was sure that there are not mostly asians, but Asians are in the internet people who do all things best. Always remember: Everytime you think you can do stuff very good, there´s an 8 year old Asian who do it better ;D !

  • @vranish sorry i just thought so

  • @kholdfire11 you're mistaking mexicans for asians... smh

  • @TBMfan92 Think SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ;)

  • I know what college I'm going to....

  • This is more than awesome! Greets from Germany!

  • They have terrible upper body projection

  • Like a boss. Nuff said.

  • why the song change? i need party rock anthem

  • @PuRpLeFrEaK3312 you got cocky and made yourself look like an ass. Its a melody of "club songs" Party Rock Anthem being the last one.

  • Tommy Trojan doing the shuffle. That's boss.

  • bravo

  • "NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!! FIGHT ON USC!!!! EVERYDAY IM SHUFFLING!!!! HAHAH!!! LOOK AT THAT TUBA GOOOO!!! YEAH!!!!!!

  • i wanna know where to get a copy of that version of Party Rock Anthem.

  • can you say copycats?

  • @TheTailsthefox If you're referring to the Ohio vid...

    USC did this 9/10

    Ohio did it three weeks later.

    

  • *yawn*

  • OU did it so much better

  • @CIncyswag2011 bull crap

  • <3 <3 I love them:)

  • AWEEEESOMMEEEEEE

    

  • Well that was fun.

  • Their marching style is throwing them off.. Go type in Niceville High school band assesment 2010 2011 and youll then understand why I believe so.

  • IMHO... They need to hold their horns up a little more... There's just not much energy...

  • @rcflyboynj

    Wholeheartedly agree

  • 6:09 ...the guy on the front line near the left 45 is really into that dance

  • Insane trumpets.. Or just a lot of em

  • I LOVE THESE GUYS!!! 

  • Swag. Chef. Cook. Knife. SC swaggin. Whoop. Get at me.

  • At 0:34, one of the players just got out of the bathroom.

  • i a big fan of marching bands but

    THIS IS EPIC XD

  • Way better then Ohio

  • i'd join the band just so i could wear a cape....

  • Modern popular music doesn't really translate well into marching band performances, because it usually ends up very simplistic. If you consider the actual difficult of the music, its not anything to be impressed over. To an actual musician, its not very entertaining. Past the early-2000s music just got really simple. The performance itself was well executed, the content was just not as well arranged as it could have been. DCI corps and HBCUs dominate popular music arrangement.

  • @anonymousowa1 - That is a HUGE insult! I do consider my myself a musician, i competed in competitions playing marches AND pop! sometimes pop is way harder. Do you know how hard it is to remember a 10 minute routine in front of THOUSANDS of people AND play pop! And yes I am VERY impressed and so are hundreds of other people. If you don't like it don't watch!

  • @dingdongbellbell I did say the execution was well done, I'm just knocking the music itself. The arrangement was lackluster, basically a transcription of the original song part onto instruments. And yes I'm very aware of the stresses of performing in front of a big crowd. No I'm not insulting USC, all I'm saying is the arrangement isn't as good as it could be. Last I checked remembering a 10-ish minute routine while playing music were the basics of being a marching band. Emphasis on basics :P

  • Comment removed

  • @:35 GUY HAS TOILET PAPER STUCK TO HIS SHOE LMFAO xD

  • @EMINEM6849 ha yea XD

  • awesome! fight on!

  • Marching is not too bad, music only got good at the Party rock anthem. Agreed that Ohio had better dancing but USC's tone quality was a little better and there volume was better at times but hey I have only seen the vids so it might be the cameras

  • At first i was like USHER YEAH MAN!

  • 2:52 fat trombonist is grinding his horn lol

  • 1:47 waddling penguins enough said lol

  • the best!!!!

    

  • USC is the best. Your argument is invalid.

  • i watched this 50 times in the past hour

  • Dear America, this is awesome.

    Love England.

  • Ohio's version of this is soooo much more entertaining!!

  • they zoom in, and all i see are asians!

  • this is absolutely amazing.

  • I wish someone recorded the UO marching band performances too! And we're freaking playing Van Halen!

  • i like their helmets

  • i dont know what all of you are disliking this for...i thought it was fantastic!

  • For those who think Ohio is better keep in mind that the USC band doesn't audition and doesn't practice as much as Ohio. Yes, they had an awesome show, but trying doing that show with 300 people.

  • @724cherryblossom Also another thing about Ohio's band is that they park and bark. There is no marching involved, so music should be cleaner, as they don't have to memorize drill also.

  • @Fleeingpanda Actually you're incorrect. The Party Rock video is simply ONE song out of an 11 minute show which includes marching. Just do a simple search on YouTube. I recommend checking out the "Bon Jovi" show from 2005.

  • espn or whoever is broadcasting the USC games should just air this instead of 30 minutes of crappy commericals FIGHT ON!!!

  • Ohio's was better...

  • wtf? are they marching toe first?

  • 16 people didn't go to band camp.

  • PERSONALLY LIKE OHIO'S BETTER.. THEY SEEM TO HAVE MORE ENERGY AND ALSO DID A CRAZY FUNNY DANCE LOL. USC'S SEEMED KIND OF DEAD..........

  • That one guy with toilet paper on his shoe...? 0:35

  • @atomiczipp it is a broken spat

  • 15 UCLA students watched this

  • Whats the name of all the songs?

  • A bit to work on. Most of the fundamentals sucked. Good job to that fat guy who always puts his ass on the ground whenever he stands in place. Trumpets, can you point your instruments anymore towards the ground? Song girls (glorified whores) were great! But the Party Rock arrangement was sweet.

  • I liked this better than ohio !!! Not bad 4 not bein a hbcu ! Great job! !!

  • you can tell which songs they were more into. :D

  • those sunglasses

    DAYUM

  • what does usc i forgot

  • Okay I'm not watching this with any college bias. But from a marching and musician standpoint. This is absolutely terrible.

  • i love hearing the college kids scream "PARTY ROCK!"

  • OHIO university did this about 1 million times better

  • I'm speechless what a performance

  • Ugh, horn angles suck, and highstep style varied for every member...I admire their endurance, however.

  • I went to a HBCU where we have showband style aka highstepping so when I go to non HBCU football games and see the band thye usually are dry and boring. USC is one of the exceptions, this was fun and had energy. A marching band is supposed to entertain not put you to sleep and that crowd sounded very entertained!

  • 0:35 paper towel fail

  • I'm in marching band. Yeeeaaah anyone who calls us geeks is a bitch.

  • @dragonsember i know what you mean. so am i :)

  • dirt all over the place

  • Comment removed

  • that marching style is hideous !

  • i was there. It was so BOSS

  • I was there and it was even more impressive in person. The Spirit of Troy never ceases to amaze. Hands down the best marching band on the planet. Thanks, TMB, for posting this.

  • i saw them the week before this\

    

  • Wow!

  • lol so ND did Party rock and it was lame... SC people kinda trolled it before comments were disabled

  • the pac-12 logo makes me sad. the s&m rendition is pretty sweet, but i swear to god, the fucking trumpets never change.

  • I kinda want to go to usc just to be part of this :P

  • awful tone.

    

  • @ZMUSICMAN I'm so glad SOMEONE could tell. Ugh!

  • @jstnwrd2008 its awful.... they are just loud and obnoxious

  • @ZMUSICMAN good thing they are one of the only marching bands to ever record a platinum album lmfao ahhh gotta love irony

  • Comment removed

  • @ZMUSICMAN thats funny...because we dont offer band scholarships. I guess whoever you know in the band has some sort of secret scholarship and the rest of us are getting gypped.

  • to everyone who says they cant recognize the songs:

    1. Are you deaf?

    2. Have you not heard those songs? Look them up.

    3. This band is great

  • 5:33 the tuba guy is awesome

  • My nephew, Andrej, is one of the sax players :)

  • also i can get that loud with my clarinet. all the kids always tell me to play softer because they can never hear but i dont give a shit. GO CLARINETS. BE HEARD. PLAY PROUDLY.

  • our band played dynamite this year and we think we sounded awesome. then i heard their version of dynamite -.- were playing i like it this friday though ;)

  • To everyone saying all the other renditions are not obvious... Obviously you do not know the songs very well. They sound almost identical!

  • i only recognized party rock... the other renditions, not so obvious.

    probably cuz of the intertwined shuffling moves. yayyy :)

  • @LOLforLIFE123 Are you kidding me!!!!!!!!

  • Only The Greatest Marching Band In the History of The Universe!

  • that cymbal line looks and sounds really awesome =-))

  • Comment removed

  • I feel like every time a marching band tries to do something cool like this it's always good but not quite there...

    loved the party rock anthem part. But every other part seemed off/forced.

    I was in marching band in hs and got out of it seeing as i didn't want to do this in college.

  • @WhiteNinja09 yeah i totally see how you see its forced. I don't really don't like these because they never sound good

  • Spectacular! WELL DONE!

  • This is awesome and it gets epic at 5:30...but

    pause 7:17 3 rows up from bottom... Decaf/Chris OP Lowder/ Ken Scooby Gulley/ Zach Cheese Turner/ Andre JonJich/ & Nacho

    Best Band in NCAA baby!

  • Fight ON. Best Band in the Land.
