  • To the people that disliked this performance:

    You obviously need to spend less time listening to top 40 and more time trying to search for some semblance of a soul within yourselves.

    This performance represented everything that New Orleanians are-

    Raw, Honest, Powerful and Passionate.

    Everything America is scared of.

    Do us a favor- be one less asshole urinating in our streets and drinking our beer during Mardi Gras.

  • i think this is the best rendition of the national anthem that i have *ever* seen. the folks who say the band was off don't get NOLA dirge music. That was the point. Clint is awesome, just discovered him today. Kudos to whoever picked them (though they may not have known what they were in for!)

  • This is one of my favorite renditions. A very unique, beautiful, soulful, and respectful performance of our revered anthem in the New Orleans jazz theme.

  • Can they have done it any slower? I thought it was never going to end my god.

  • This was probably one of the worst renditions of the national anthem I have ever heard. The rhythm between the singer and the band was non existent. The sax and trumpet players come in way too edgy randomly in the song. Before all of you pounce on me, I get the culture, I like blues music, and i get tradition and excellence. This was an out of tune, rhythmically challenged butchering of our National Anthem. This isn't because I am bitter we lost. This is because I am a lover of music.

  • youtube keeps taking down my strip tease videos 2

  • well ill take the rosebowl.. its our tie in..thank god

  • yea I know the tank was done before. LSU did it decades ago, put to drill by the same man who designed our pregame. And I'd prefer Capital One.....at least we could go to Disney World....

  • i guess.. i mean the tank was.. cool.. but its been done before.. i liked your journey show (who can dislike journey). the show we did was a combo of two.. and we couldnt do the entire superheroes due to copyright infringement on TV and without our video boarda to show the logos, it lost some effect.. oh well .. how bout we agree to meet again.. next year.. orange bowl?

  • Fair enough...I really wish we would have done our Journey Show (even though Georgia performed an eerily similar show at the Sugar Bowl lol). I still think the tank was pretty bad ass though haha...
