I'll admit, when I first saw it I thought it said "One Direction" and I was really embarrassed to be an LSU fan.

Aleva is slowly phasing out TGBFTL. He started with Tiger Rag and Neck. Continued with substituting piped in rap for the band in more and more spots. Now TGBFTL has to share halftime with a 2nd rate pop band.

In an ironic twist, they'll be performing Latin Flare

God, LSU fans are such dorks these days. Lee Greenwood, Garth Brooks, One Republic...Ugh!


Back in the day The Pixies were a little too mainstream. Now get off my lawn!

Would never happen. LSU is one of few schools where the marching band is actually loved by some as much as the football team.

The students killed both of those.

This is true, but we're not the only ones who do it. That said, I hate it.

One Republic is still very prevalent and popular in the public sphere.


Other than Imagine Dragons or Train, what else has been the hottest pop band over the last 3 years?

The only problem - it's Florida and there's no tickets left. They needed to perform at halftime of a game where nobody would want to show up. Alleva will learn the hard way, I guess.

There won't be any latin shows/show tunes...but you can expect the women who rock show, a blockbuster show (featuring music from movies released this year), and a queen show...all of the shows this year are brand new for tiger band.

Are they all one song with the band marching, one golden girl feature standing still, and ending with hey fightin tigers?

This is what pisses me off. I understand that people like to watch the golden girls, but unless you are on the sideline that they are dancing on, you can't see them very well. It makes for a wasted song.

I'm fairly young and go to a lot of live shows. One Republic is just bland, boring pop music.
