  • Can't nobody mess with the 100, let's be real. If you know the proper history, all of the other bands black & white adopted many of famu's practices. Dr. William P. Foster, creator of "the 100" wrote the textbook, Band Pageantry, considered "The Bible" for the marching bands across this country. Winners of the coveted 'Sudler' award, the highest honor bestowed upon an intercollegiate band, the first and (still the only) historically black university band to receive the trophy. It is what it is.

  • Hey, all i know is that FAMU is getting coverage by sports illustrated, CNN, and so many others. Who's covering DCI bands? Oh yea, the general public doesnt care about them.

  • @MrTeeshaw So, did you end up playing in the 100?

  • stopstopstopstopstop. I love both Drum Corps and College Band. Both entertain me. (:

  • Blue Devils, Phantom Regiment, etc. don't consider themselves bands but drum corps. Maybe they should have said best college band. As always though these opinions are subjective. I FAMU is the best bandin the land IMO.

  • You know what? They're good players, but they'll never be as good as the Concord Blue Devils, Rockford Phantom Regiment, Blue Coats, Carolina Crown, or even DCA. The discipline is pretty spiffy, good practice times and such, but they aren't the best band in the land. There is perspective, then there's arrogance. Then there's just plain IGNORANCE. The base word in that is "Ignore", and they're ignoring DCI and it's Associates... -_- By the way, they shouldn't carry their basses like that. At all.

  • @TheDragonmaster18 FAMU IS THE GREATEST IN THE LAND!!!

  • @aclawl2 Its not a song, its a chant! a fight chant for FAMU.

  • @KingFate20 Right, because trophies are the only reason to be in marching band. What's the point of being the best if you hate what you did to be the best?

  • @hoodfigga92 you must havent did your research yet lol youtube them lmao
