Intonation problems, bleeding notes, and gaps in the phrasing always sound real bad in small bands. Playing together and being in tune is waaaaaaaay better than being loud. On anotjer note JSU always had them tubas and percussion, but this year they sound like a wall of sound and their arrangements have meat on them. Power plus balance plus arragements equal a W in my book always.
I been waiting on this battle because my friend wants to mvsu but i want to go to jsu to become a jsette and study business. Plus i know how and love to dance.
The thing is that at Valley most of all the extra-curricular activities have had scholarship cuts. It’s not the people that’s over the programs, it’s the school.
This is not always the smartest thing to do especially with the marching band and football team in particular because they are the 2 BIGGEST recruiting tools for the school. When the money doesn't get put into those 2 programs, the enrollment will CONTINUE to drop at an already underfunded HBCU.
@@biloxistreetfood8326 They never had a good band nor football team for that matter lol. But they always had been the underdog and that's sad. It's been like that for years with them. I really don't know what they need to do but maybe they need to put more funding into their music and football programs.
Ok I feel like valley got to work on the balance of there band it’s like they are trying to out play on another and I don’t think that you need size to sound good I just think they gotta work on balance I hope the directors and the arrangers are looking at the comments and taking notes to me size don’t matter cause I’m pretty sure there are bands that are smaller then valley and sound damn good I just wish this program the best and the staff really sit down and think about what they are putting out in there band program
@@CB-yd7ci Y'all silly! Lol. I said this a long time ago that the college bands need to get rid of the flag lines and twirlers. Just have the majorettes. Just my opinion lol
I think that the flag lines are fine they just need to be GOOD!.. sometimes they don't think they need to practice as hard as the rest of the band and all they need to do is just twirl something, but if you gone be with the band then there needs to be precise PRECISION i don't care if they were twirling broom sticks..lol.. precision, precison, precison!
It's like poor adjustment with the equalizer. Had they take about 8 of those trombones and put 4 on baritone and 4 on mellophone the sound wouldn't be so disproportionate. They didn't sound bad just structurally unbalanced
@@601mew plus when the rest of your competition doing a style of marching that is popular among black youth and hell even all youth they probably had no Choice but to change
When JSU came in on the first note of Sundress I died laughing 😂 That first note was straight power!! 🔥🔥🔥 Way too much for Valley but they did well. Def looking forward to a great 2019 from them!
Jackson state sounds absolutely amazing. Clean, powerful, balanced, and just the right amount of screaming from the trumpets. God I love seeing small bands get crushed.
@@da_khidgeebandtube2022 2018 tubas might actually be stronger than last year but they have more to fight with this year. Keep in mind every section minus mellos are considerably stronger and blending much better this year.
@@MrDajohnson2012 I disagree, I heard too many sour notes in the first song alone. I'd rather a band be crisp and polished than to be cranking and cracking ♪
For the last time... LOUD DOES NOT EQUAL GOOD! The tone is completely awful in both of these groups and if either of them ever went against a pretty good corps style group they would get chewed up and spit out like it was nobody’s business
I CANNOT BELIEVE I'M GONNA SAY THIS BUT AFTER YESTERDAY I THINK SU TUBAS MAY BE A LITTLE BETTER THAN JSU WOW I CAN'T ACTUALLY BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS BUT THOSE BOYS ARE PUMPIN ! . I GUESS WE'LL SEE WEEK AFTER NEXT!
Idk bout that, su tubas couldn’t even. We/dawgteam ain’t unleashed that full power we possess just yet. Wait til boombox we gone be full force 💯 “ he said su tubas Better😂💀” sorry no sorry.
