@2009grifin We like our UT Band just as it is thank you very much.

What a band. They are amazing. Our daughter wants to go there when she graduates.

@Mrmcdrumlover94 We don't compete with our halftime shows, but we do use a more contemporary style during halftime. At the Division I level, there isn't much reason to do any kind of competition. LHB has always been about entertainment value and just putting on a show, not so much about a DCI level of precision with marching. We do occasionally use arrangements from DCI bands though.

@KKJahn In the 60's, Arkansas had a drum built that was bigger than texas' drum. The heads were too thin on ours to play on though. Unfortunately, the drum's whereabouts are not known at the moment. We have many pictures of it though!

@2009grifin It's called tradition. They're halftime shows are different

@Mrmcdrumlover94 Generally, the only college competitions are for HBCU's. That's a very different environment. Schools like Texas do tend to march exhibition at high school contests, though.

[Mrmcdrumlover94]

Ok. Does this school do an actual halftime show? Like for competition or something?

[2009grifin]

It is 2011!!! When are these large university bands going to do something more state of the art!!

@slwdsm This the band entrance 30-45 minutes before game time. The stands were packed by the time the game started. People were still outside the stadium tailgating etc.
