Although I was not in the Pride until 1971 through 1973, the marching style remained the same. We were a unique Marching Band and really proud of it. The many hours spent at Pride Field preparing for performances were brutal, but now they don't seem so bad. Thanks for sharing and allowing us to re-live those great years at USM.

How great we can all see this and stroll down memory lane! I do miss the red coats, though!

Not sure if we'll go back to this field entrance, but we do have something similar to it now. It was drill designed last semester (fall '08) by DMA graduate student, John Martin. He incorporated some traditional moves, and of course, our now traditional pre-game cheers, Alma Mater, National Anthem, and Battle Hymn. John is also trying to get someone to record all home (and possibly away) games just so that Southern Miss Bands can have an archive of past shows. I think it's a great idea.

I am so thankful to see these videos!!! I had no idea there were any films saved from those days. Those were GOOD days... no, those were GREAT days!

OMG. How wonderful to see this classic time and drum cadences embedded in your mind for life.

Hi ... so glad you like it ... who are you? You graduated in '67? I missed you by a few months!

where did you get this? why do they not take the field like that anymore? it's awesome - great showmanship! they need to go back to that field entrance and drum cadence.

I borrowed the film from Ray Young when I was teaching at North Forrest in Hattiesburg ... and bad self never returned it for 30 years! I finally had it converted to DVD and a friend posted it on here for me. I love it - drum corps has taken over everything ... not such a great thing, huh? Were you in the Pride?

well, i dont know about that. the drums are pretty dominant in their field entrance in '69, but this is so much more commanding. is there anyway they would implement this again? i dont know any of the people to whom you have referred. my dad went to southern, and i grew up with them. im a diehard fan - university, athletics, band, etc.

Maybe someday decades from now someone will hit upon this style again and think they've created something! Who is your dad? Was he in the band?
