As a Spirit of the Old Gold and Black Marching Band Alumnus (Wake Forest), I would have to say that you guys are GREAT!!! I'm attending Appalachian for grad school now, and have yet to go to a game, but after seeing this, I'll make sure I go to the next one!!! LOL :-)

I could really care less what anyone else has to say about POTM. It has proven itself to be far beyond the reach of most programs and those that are up there with us show us respect and we do the same. I know how hard everyone one works in bands that do multiple shows because my friends were DM's at schools such as UNC, ECU, and UMass. So if youre sore about some friendly banter or just can't take it, I apologize.

@saxybeast704 Besides, we like you're band. It's a different style and we like it. But, the way you all keep coming at us saying that we suck, while we bust our asses every week to perform 4 shows a year, does not make us like you very much. It's all about the attitude. If you could just appreciate how hard we work and actually say nice things then we will repay the favor.

@saxybeast704 Seriously you think getting invited to Cali for roses parade is badass? We played in London a few years ago, not to mention we were one of only TWO bands in the country to perform in one of the world's largest parades in Madrid, Spain. I also don't get why in every Mountaineer video there is a pussy cat defending their band and complaining about us. If you were really as kickass as you believe you are, then why come to our videos to prove something to yourselves?

Wheres the pit at?

@pizzathuhut Well it works for us! Haha.We think it's harder because we spend hours and hours making the music perfect while still fun. I'm sure Appalachian does too, but we spend the time on the one show just to make it as good as possible. And yeah, the jug will be yours for a while :) Haha! And I wish they could too! There's a lot of mutual respect (and maybe some hatred) between the schools. Haha! :)

@jerrygoodnght Seriously? One show all year? That gets very boring for the fans. You need variety. We play 4 shows. 4 is better than one. We shall keep the Jug again this year. I honestly wish the bands could meet up during the games but it is unfortunate they cannot.

@tunesplayer919 We are helped by top music, visual, and guard people iun DCI and WGI. We are, and have, the best of the best. I hope you picked WCU, but App is a great school too :)

[jerrygoodnght]

@tunesplayer919 Seriously consider Western. We perform one show and improve all year. Im not takin anything away from App, but Western plays in the stands, and perform incredible halftime shows. And we dont change shows every week, its alot like a competition band, but you perform exhibitions to show off, haha. Its, in my opinion, more challengin than learnin a whole new show because the music can, and is, that much harder.

@wcudrumline Exactly, he is so awesome. "What band is this!?"...."And dont you forget it!" :D And hahahaha, they wont have anyone ever tell them that, even in their dreams. We're the only people worthy of that title :)
