I was in the band and I LOVE watching these bands roll out! Killing it! If you have never had the opportunity to march in a band, you will never truly be able to understand the amount of hard work and dedication it takes to STICK these halftime shows! Hours of practice by everyone! TRULY AMAZING!
I marched in an HBCU band years ago. I played the E Flat Clarinet and the Alto saxophone. It was definitely lots of hard work. Several hours of practicing! I started playing in the 3rd grade! So the physicality and knowing how to play an instrument while dancing takes a lot. It was so fun and I am so glad I had the opportunity to be in a such a wonderful activity.
Yep!!! Jackson State leadership got it right ..both the Drum Majors and the J settes clearly understand the assignment..they are consistently clean,polished, with an understanding of attention to details...This group are real performers not just students out there "doing something."
how people keep overlooking this great band i will never understand..they kills it every game..Dr. Little is on to something special this year and he knows it..
I was proud of the whole ban. You guys did a great job 👍 and for the Drum Majors, you were on point with every step. I rate Jackson State in my top four A+'s 💞💞
@@chunk2596 Nah. He added absolutely nothing. I never thought he should be HDM. Dude in front right now is how I’m used to seeing HDMs from JSU look. 💯💯💯
The Drum Majors are great and each group' s uniforms look great!!! In fact, I do feel that they all gave polished performances. I just wish the girls knew how to twirl batons bc it gives a much better effect than without them.
I love Jackson state boom of the south and the j settes they are the best marching band there is keep doing what y’all is doing and I will always support yall
JSU has a very good band--high spirits, people doing their best to get ready and, those J-settes with the guys up front, shaking/stepping to those bad sounds of the Tuba row.
J5 always with the skills! Highly curious question: seeing some of these fine brass players pouting/sticking out their lower lip when not playing. What's the reasoning?
The routine was cool by the J5. I just felt that they were out of sync in the beginning. Almost felt rushed than smooth. They definitely performed better last week
I’m not feeling j5 this year …. Lackin stamina and the performance factor. Yea they doin the steps but no flare to it . Knees not up …. No performance.. the DM on the far left in the back is out marching and performing all of em ….big boy look like he lazy the Dm on the left side of the head Dm looks like he be gassed out ….. they need to work on endurance
Yeah the moves are nice but execution of it ain’t nasty enough for me they gotta hit it, like the spotlights on me and we are J5!! Just pick it up a lil, put some umph in it.. 👏🏾
Everyone looked phenomenal. Love the uniforms but I agree with the comments about the Drum Majors . Just need to have a lil more flair . The DM of the past used to get at it !
What in the world sre they doing. We had the greatest band under the sun in the 60's they cant touch Williston marching band from Wilmingtin North Carolina.
Good routine, they just look uncomfortable in those uniforms. They don’t fit them right at all. Too tight on some, too loose on others. Just go back to the regular fits and pull these back out for special occasions.
