I'm from upper Michigan, so completely the opposite of this whole atmosphere of Louisiana lol. This was the first time I got to see some real southern bands. My first impression after hearing all of them play was that Dega had the upper hand practically the whole time with Alcorn not too far behind in terms of sound quality and clarity. Heard Dega warm up with some soft little chorals or something and Alcorn or Wilberforce were already blasting away. My first thought was, "Ah man is Dega gonna serenade them to death what is this..." Then they just came in with that loud, powerful sound with high trumpets, screeching mellophones and beefy tubas. I was completely culture-shocked. Cool thing about being a Marine is you get to see cool stuff like this. From someone who's never seen this kind of battle in person, I give this one to Dega. I thought they overall sounded the best in every musical aspect here.
I like WU. They just BUSTED onto the scene and demanded acknowledgement. They're gonna get some new Southern recruits. Had no idea OH had this up there.
Thanks Killa Kev for this amazing footage. So very happy to see you back and into it. Please change the introduction back like it was. Please and thank you.😄
So of y’all bias just because y’all went to the school doesn’t mean they won! Dega was better! Alcorn played some nice tunes though but overall dega won
This battle was hype! I hope more of these 3 ways happen! Alcorn energy execution was on another level! Whewww! Talladega had great song selections and was bringing smoke especially the upper brass. Mellos are creasing. Wilberforce has a great foundation to build on I got it 1) alcorn 2) Talladega 3) Wilberforce
I was there for this battle I’m not taking anything from no one’s band Wilberforce y’all straight just need to push y’all sound out more alcorn your euphos need to stop missing some notes when playing out that really be blowing it ngl but everyone did good Dega was straight trumpets did a little too much but at least they didn’t over shoot like others would I’d give this one to dega but good job everyone fr
Dega mellos was really eating niggas alive tho 💯 Don’t say I’m being biased or I’m a hater I fw all these bands and this was my first time hearing Wilberforce and I for one really like them
@brii8717 Alcorn band has one problem that they really need to work on. The band needs to get an instrument vendor so all brass player have the same horn and mouth piece. Right when you hear them it sounds like what it is 25 people playing 20 different horns with 10 different mouth pieces. The baritone sound great because they all have the same horn but the trumpets and trombones sound like bring your own horn band. This is what hurting alcorn.
Alcorn 🔥💯🔥 with the W y’all Tripping Dega won this 😂😂😂 them Off notes be hurting them they need to sound like when they played against Jackson state during Covid at that BOTB in Jackson that’s the best I heard Dega and they lost it again
@@anthonyballard1010 nobody bias you can hear it Alcorn wasn’t perfect but it was better than Dega like be fr with yourself did you hear them at the BOTB that just pass they where the worst one there dead Azz
@@Tri.dawg1 see you talking about BOTB we talking about right now! Dega sounded better than both bands! Especially the trumpets & mellos they were singing!
After watching this video 3 times and listening to it over and over I am going to have to go with Alcorn with the win! I mean they have a much fuller sound, and their arrangements are way better than Dega. Dega sound good too, but the trumpets are just doing way too much. I feel like the parts to the arrangements are written for the wrong instruments and the arrangements aren't good to me especially that slow song it was just too choppy, and that song don't even sound choppy like that.
Wilberforce tuba aint playing around. I think Wilberforce song selection was the best and drumline bumpin. Sorry but Alcorn and Talledega song selection was boring.
Bro what the hell are you taking about if alcorn and dega song selection so boring how come you can see people in the crowd vibing and hear people going “wooo” or “daaaam” y’all really some bias haters…
@@hawk7246 It's just my opinion. I didn't say either was slaw. Just think Wilberforce song selection was a little more hype. Doesn't mean that Wilberforce is better than Alcorn or Dega I just liked their energy more especially being from a smaller school.
