Man these arrangements and sound from the Boom give me chills. There is no HBCU band that can stand against the SBOTS this year. They are on an elite level. In every battle, I find myself fast forwarding the other bands just to get to the Boom's selection.
I am back again. The clarity, the sound, the swag, the woodwinds, the percussion, the trombones, the trumpets, the everything. They are truly the Band of the Year in my books. #TheeILove
The R&B arrangement was so smooth. They sound so clean and like velvet. Come through Mellosssss and love hearing the woodwinds (indoor you can really hear them more) to balance out all the brass
Nothing beats the sound of baritones in marching band man. Euphos sound like complete sh*t when coupled with upper brass. Glad JSU didn’t follow the trend
Those Sonic Boom are the BEST!!! #1 in my book. They got cheated out of the ESPN Division I championship. I know band proformance the Sonic Booms was on point on everything. I would love to know what the judges saw or didn't see why they named NC the champions. The Booms needs to know so they can make some changes for next year. Come on judges come out and let us know what u saw or didn't see.
Dr.Little deserve this i literally watched him work with nothing and God touched this band and the whole staff even the ones we don’t see or know this is heaven on earth thank God for it all it’s so beautiful it’s nothing that we’ve ever heard before and omg them tuba and trumpets make a difference cause they already had everything else tbone baritones mellos woodwinds and at always been that but when they unleashed them dog and that trumpet line got right it’s been up since that 2019 band
2023/2024 group is one of the best SBOTS I’ve heard, and arguably the best band this season. The balance and the arrangements are superior. 🤌🏿 Great job!
JSU!!!!!! COOOOOOME THROUGH!!!!! Take me back to my college days and the band! Keep on giving that same energy! We love it! And JSETTES MMMM YALL EAT IT UP! That’s all that gotta say! Drops 🎤
WOW!!! They sound amazing!!! I'm comfortable calling it for JSU for the 2024 season, already!!! Southern is gonna have a tough time with these guys again!!! #MississippiBoom
Definitely not southern’s year this year but I would hope they fix their issues by next season. Also, there are some other bands coming for that top SWAC spot like ASU and TxSU.
I swear I predicted that JSU would play on my mama and i know. When I first heard both songs especially I know I knew they were gonna play it sounded like I almost heard them playing it in my head before they even came out with the arrangement.
Man I swear the J-Sette’a know how to clean up when it’s showtime hahahahaha. Who would have known that this is where they started lolz. JSU was CLEARLY Band of the Year! No human discussed A&T the entire season and next to each other the Boom was OBVIOUSLY the better band of the night!
This was an intimate session... The JSU-SBOTS filled that entire hall with amazing and full sound, with direct musical passion... Which evoked fine tuning of one's sensory apparatus, made available by the JSU-SBOTS, anytime and anywhere💙🤍💙🤍🔥
I laughed so hard reading this. I remember what that was like. I was there. Glad I wasn't the only one to remember it, and it's the first thing that crossed my mind when I heard it!
Guess judges like the field show drum break and old music cause it was like the movie. 😂. A&T Same band from the movie right? This Boom band !!!!!🔥💯 Comments everywhere tell ya all ya need 2 know.🤷🏾♂️🤐
Hey THEE Alumni! I know you are Boom Alumni Band. Can you listen to "You Don't Get Me High Anymore" by Phantogram? It is here on RU-vid. I feel it is an excellent (& unexpected) song for either current Boom or Alumni Boom to jam. It has a good section for woodwinds, too. After all, if Boom can make a SWAC smash out of "If You Seek Amy" pop song, THEE certainly can do their magic on this Phantogram song. 💙
I love both Dega and JSU's arrangements of I Know? by Travis Scott. However, I believe JSU has the better arrangement. Dega's mellos and euphos carry on their arrangement but its not as balanced like JSU.
No they wasn’t. It’s called a field show. Not just musical and plus maybe them ladies need to do flags batons something. They were both good but y’all know NCAT put on a show periodt. Get out y’all feelings it’s okay. 🤷🏽♀️🙄
They don’t need no flags. So basically u have to be a pwi to win gtfoh. Any respectable band competition wouldn’t even have auxiliary as an element to the winning band. Auxiliaries have their own categories.
There seems to be a trend in HBCU bands where every band's entire horn section just blows as loud as they possibly can. So apparently whoever is the loudest in competitions is deemed to have won??? It makes every band sound the same and there is little nuance and finesse. Some of these folks are going to have hearing problems when they get older. Lol. ijs.
Being loud doesn’t equate to being good , you can clearly hear the musicality in some bands vs the next plus the percussion will sound completely different so no, these bands don’t all sound the same. Typical SWAC band hate
Ik a su fan ain’t talking you must didn’t see the boombox jsu whooped y’all I wouldn’t even show my face after what jsu did to y’all weak ass tubas weak ass Drumline weak ass trombones every section in su band is weak except the btones sit tf down and get a drum section and tune yall drums
