University at Buffalo's only all-male a cappella group The Buffalo Chips performing Ben Folds' "Army" as part of their set at the 2010 ICCA Mid-Atlantic Semifinals held at Rutger's University. This set would win the Chips 1st place and send them to the ICCA Finals in NYC for the first time in the group's history!

  • @raptic thanks for the response, when i was first in college, youtube hadn't yet been invented yet so i downloaded audio clips from the illegal channels, and one of te first ones i got my hands on was a Buffalo Chips version of semi-charmed life, it was brilliant!

    glad you won

  • @okonh0wp Admittedly, our volume that night was noticeably lower than the other performers, so I understand how this might be viewed as "weak." Rest assured this arrangement is full and complete and a live performance such as the one in the Rambler's popular youtube video would have revealed a much stronger sound.

    As for the lack of African Americans...Unfortunately (fortunately?) A Capella isn't as popular on campus as one might expect. You take what you can get.

    we were surprised we won too

  • come to think of it i'm happy for these guys, as someone associated with the ubuffalo, it's like if your kid did well, but this was weaker than the rochester rambler's version (except the bridge) so i'm surprised these guys won the whole competition

  • @AliceInVidland interesting alice, i find every a capella group has no more and no less than one black guy

  • This is a prime and beautiful example of the majesty of dancing white boys. I think a cappella is the greatest sport in the US. Nice highlight on the cute one at 2:46.

    I do wish you guys had really gotten the piano melody out there more, but it's A+ as it is.

  • suny buffalo's an underrated university, glad they get the spotlight in anyway they can
