You know, everyone keeps mentioning the Latina flair and earth, wind, and fire... I remember sitting in that stadium before he was director (from 2002-2006) as a student and also having a Latin halftime show, and also have a Motown show that featured EW&F. How come no one gave Wicks a hard time about it? The disco one was also pretty boring and Wicks did that almost every year.

i would be very interested to see a comparison between a Wicks halftime (2009 or earlier) and a Roy halftime (2011-2015). I'll see if I can find videos, when I've got time to do it and am not on my cell phone.

This thread is suffering a lot from "Back in my day" syndrome. I was in the band from 87-89 and we played the hell out of some Latin Flair. Malaguena was a staple. I bet I could still play it from memory now if I had to.
