The band's job is to energize the crowd and get them pumped up for the game. Not to compete and rub in the face of other bands. The AUMB has class and talent. Yet my time in the AUMB so far no one has really dissed any other bands. Sure they make jokes about the MDB, but its just friendly jokes. Nothing serious. MDB is amazing as well.
And besides. I grew up watching the AUMB and they're wonderful. Every school has its tradition, and every school will claim that their band is the best. I don't go to Auburn. And don't claim to be an Auburn fan. But I know an awful lot about both the band programs at Auburn and Alabama and I have a lot more respect for that band in the Loveliest Little Village on the Plains.
Honestly, I think both programs are phenomenal - both with their own strengths and weaknesses.
I've always had respect for the work that the MDB does, and I'd appreciate it if you could return the favor.
At the end of the day, it's not which program is best that matters... it's the fact that the crowd goes home entertained by two great bands. (And I think the state of Alabama has two of the best, by far)
I actually think that the Auburn Band is a pretty good band, but I do think the MDB is better. Actually the MDB is the most televised band in the country, but I think Auburn entertains their crowd really well. I always enjoy seeing the shows of all the SEC bands.

Actually. The Golden Band from Tigerland gets a whole lot more airtime than the Million Dollar Band does.
