re: Did anyone hang out in the stadium and listen to the bands battle back and forth?

I stayed a watched for a few min. Was not disappointed. I’ve seen videos of southerns band and was worried their style was overrated or not that great. Couldn’t have been more wrong, they sounded fricking awesome in person.

TGBFTL is a shell of its former self in the Wickes days. After Roy King’s ouster, a nationwide search was supposed to have been conducted for a director. Instead five years later we are still stuck with this interim whose only previous experience as director was a high school band.

The Human Jukebox wiped the field with them in every area, including the mythical “musicianship” we use as an excuse when we can’t nearly match them in marching or volume.

Only one thing to do. Kedrick Taylor is a Southern alum. No matter. Money talks. Open the checkbook and move him across town to Tiger Band Hall.

Obviously LSU’s traditional fight songs and the Alma Mater don’t change. But if he wants to make tgbftl into more of an HBCU-type band and make the Golden Girls more like the Dancing Dolls, that is fricking fine with me.

TGBFTL is currently a tired act. They need more brass, more volume, and more soul. Kedrick Taylor would provide all of that.
