In previous years, the full band took one road trip per year plus the bowl game, but apparently that precedent has changed, and they will no longer bring the full band on a road game.


Does that mean no bowl game or SECCG either?

It sucks that there's no full band trip, but not unprecedented. We didn't have one in 2009 because the trip to Washington cost too much plus the budget cuts


Meh, I didn't mind. We enjoyed the hell out of that trip. Would have much rather that than be cramped on 1 of 8 buses to go to Ole Miss or Auburn. Came through LSU band at the perfect time: came in for the title in 07 and left before it could become the circus it is today.

There was a trip scheduled for them to go to China in the next couple of years, however, it appears that's not going to happen.
no chance this happens anymore. Roy was actively working on that trip in the coming years but with him gone no way they even think about it

Wow....That would of been great for the band kids. I did not know/hear anything about this.

I agree.....They wanted Roy "out of the picture" so they could "mistreat" the band kids and nobody would be around to fix it.
Sad.......
