re: Tiger Band thread. How's the new director? How are the numbers looking?

Hi Scott.

They promoted from within. As far as I know, LSU did not perform an external search for a new director.

Well I looked on the website and it appears he has the "interim" tag on his title; so assuming the school doesn't pull another football hire, they will do an external search and maybe hire during the year.

Full disclosure, I know nothing about music or the operations of the band, and I mean no disrespect to those who have been put in charge; but I would hope the school has higher standards than just putting two people, that by all accounts from their bios, have only ever directed high school bands before. I mean a band the caliber and tradition of GBFTL should have some of the most experienced and best in the country leading them.
