this was amazing to watch. i saw it live at Cary twice, yesterday and that first note hit us all hard, that was freaking awesome. and the snare in the x. just a awesome show overall. our band loved watching you, cant wait till we get to see ya next time.
This is perhaps the weirdest band I've ever seen. Ever. It wasn't exactly to my taste to begin with, but it's growing on me. Exceptionally good at what they do, and totally unique. Afraid the Gamecocks have nothing on this. The only band I've ever seen of similar caliber was just across the mountains to the west, but it's been 15 years since that band has lived up to its name.
wizardoforange-not sure what’s weird about it. This is how a band that is nationally recognized performs! Excellence personified! I’ve never seen any other college band perform at this level, and certainly not use a spinning drummer ever!
Denise D the use of synthesizers and nontraditional marching band instruments is out of the ordinary. WNC has a stellar program and what they do is top notch, but stylistically I prefer more militaristic bands without the gimmicks - think Texas A&M, or the University of Tennessee in the 1960’s through 90’s. A different halftime show at every home game would be nice too. I have the utmost respect for WNC - they are among the best at what they do.
I think NC needs to experience an SEC marching band! Go Gamecocks! But being a native of NC and now going to college and in the Mighty Sound of the Southeast at USC, is awesome! You guys sound great though!
