Why many of you so negative regarding these young people. They should be lift up with positivity instead of being put down. I'm proud of them as you all should be. These young people work hard in school and doing what they love with this band. If you don't like what they do, then you should do something to help them become better than talking. These students most likely read your comments.
GSU Marching Band will always be my first love in regards to HBCU bands. I grew up in a small (predominantly white) TX town. Went to a parade in Dallas, TX (can't remember the reason for the parade). They stopped to perform where I was standing. Talk about amazed! I was blown away! Dancing and playing music at the same time !?!?! What?!?!? I wanted to follow them for the remainder of the parade. Mom wasn't having it, though. LOL! Up until that point, I had never seen a marching band perform like that! This was over 25 years ago....but a memory I'll never forget! Thanks for the memories!!!
15:58 make me love this video even more, the energy they have in this video is out of this world. They are doing so great this year and people need to stop trying to violate them.
That cadence has been updated. My Jr High (and later high school) band director was Malcolm Spencer. He was a graduate of GSU and back in the late 70s, early 80s this was our cadence. I remember that four and eight count and the little dip on the eight. Memories.
Have always love this band. Went to the games and the battle of the bands always in N O L A. Was relocated to Arkansas and cant travel now anymore because of my leg. Lost the left one from Katrina and they mansge to save the right which is bad now. Keep marching Grambling from a true fan.

"Isn't it about time colleges and universities marching bands to come together to compete against each other for some real money to see who has the best band in the nation for first, second and third prize." Please let New York City be the first place to hold such an great event 😀!" This would a great way to raise money for these schools and truly support this beautiful idea and y'all ?"
Hey, I am trying to help my wife complete a research project she is working on. She needs Black undergraduate juniors or seniors to complete this survey. Please forward this email to anyone you know who fits these criteria. howard.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_823kGIt0VULQ8NT
1975 was the first Coke cola commercial. “look up America I like to teach the world to sing” and the second was 1980 Welch’s grape commercial both by FAMU M100.

Hi Skyla. It's Marsha, from Farmerville, Beulah BC. I used to keep u sometimes when you were a baby. God bless n keep you. I hope all is well. Remember me? ...
DMs weak and look confused. They don’t look like they know what to do next and the marching only is boring. DMs are expected to put on a show but I guess to each their own. Miss the old GSU.
Ah yes vivid memories of my days in marching band....people underestimate the precision it takes to always be on the same Accord as everyone else...marching as 1...high stepping...with pride even tho u soaking wet underneath all that uniform Good ol days indeed 💪
I marched in this band in the mid-eighties when discipline was still instilled deeply in our core. What is up with these tired-looking drum majors? Where is that 90 degrees pop in your march? A bit disappointed that the crisp 90 degrees in the knees don't seem like a requirement anymore.
Man very disappointed in the drum majors, their job is to hype the band and audience and that wasn't the case. Now the bones T phi bone for life put it in affect.
I really can't get past the DM's looking so lost, almost as if they auditioning. Their marching is very lazy and even the uniforms are not properly fit. The DM's are leading the pack and should have pants that are professionally tailored. Please do better.
looking at the camera, looking around, a couple of the drum majors seem unsure, synchronization is off....the famous GSU marching band?...cant be. i'm 57 and i dont remember this slothfulness
The only time the DMs have energy is 14:16 and on: when they do those chants and stuff; that’s in majority of the GSU videos I’ve seen. But they sound good🕺🏽
What is this they are not marching they're walking. So boring i need more excitement. I dnt care about the dancing but get those knees up 😳. Its just ok for me
