The Princeton University Marching Band pre-game show, September 19, 2009 (The Citadel)

The pre-game show before the Citadel game. The band both honored the armed services (the game having been designated as such) and mocked the Citadel, all in friendly retaliation for last year's infamous band vs. cadets showdown. Citadel proved its point on the gridiron, however, destroying Princeton 38-7.

LOVE IT!!!!

this is another style of marching!

This is a Scramble Band! Scramble bands (also referred to as 'Scatter' bands) are a variation on show bands. They generally do not march in time with the music, but, as their name implies, scramble from design to design and often incorporate comedic elements into their performances. Most of the bands in the Ivy League use this style.

i think the "Hooterville" band on Green Acres, and the Mayberry town band on the Andy Griffith Show sounds better... :-)

These shows are so weird. The announcers are more entertained droning on and on about stuff only the band members care about. Everybody else (that would be the 12 people in the stands) are bored with it all.
