Lee Greenwood in 2001 for Middle Tennessee State game after 9/11.

Some don’t like the song or his performance that night, but in that moment, it was awesome.

LSU admin should invite him back for the 2020 season to give the anti-American frickers the middle finger.

No way that was Bama 02. I remember it being cold and we got our arse kicked.

I was in Tiger Band in 1975 when we did a pre-Bicentennial salute in Tiger Stadium which featured the band along with a vocal chorus singing America the Beautiful. There was a pause just before the end--you could hear the buzzing of the overhead lights before a thunderous finale. The stadium was shaking with an ear shattering applause after we finished. It was an awesome feeling to experience.

Happy July 4th everyone!

I do remember talking with people during the game how cold they must have been too.

I was in TB in 01. The halftime performance of Amazing Grace that very first game after 9/11 was easily the greatest performance in Tiger Stadium history simply due to emotion and all of TS being dead silent for the duration of that tune. It was eerie and wonderful at the same time. I get chills just thinking about it.

The Led Zeppelin tribute was rocking

I was impressed with the formations for Star Wars

LSU/Auburn 2001, when the tuba player ran over the kicker and the kicker tried to pick a fight with the entire band.

Sept 11, 2011. Band removed their hats and played Amazing Grace in tribute to an LSU alum who lost his life on 9/11. You could hear a pin drop in Tiger Stadium. The most quiet I’m ever heard it.
