The #LSU Golden Band From Tigerland won’t be traveling to UCLA season opener because of budget cuts due to Covid, but will be traveling to SEC games as normal. Full band for championship/bowl games. I’m told that’s not a secret, but unsure how common knowledge it is. @WAFB

Just spoke with Kelvin Jones with the #LSU band. He confirmed they won't travel for UCLA. But the decision was made two months ago, back when there were still logistical questions. The Rose Bowl hadn't announced yet that it was 100% capacity.

Story coming soon on this for clarity. They will travel in some capacity for every other game. They just had to make a budget decision at the time, Jones said, and there were too many questions.

Seems like the Athletic Department could find this money somewhere easily.

Somebody ask the World Renowned Southern “Marching Jukebox” If they could step in and boost our boys up!

You really think the players on the field care about the band being in the stands and need them to boost them up?

If you ever played ball, you’d realize they do. They don’t necessarily need them but trust me they love it.

It has to be a real slap in the face to realize that your trip to LA is kaput and that money is paying for Bo Pelini’s new business venture in the beverage industry

That sucks. They need to be there.

Email or call the athletic dept and tell them you'll contribute to send a 100 member pep band.

This is ridiculous. The AD should pony up

Yes, Band > Shitty piped in music as a player

I bet they like having the fight song and our fans spelling TIGERS after a TD. It’s all about taking over the atmosphere and the band is part of it.

We're opening up the bank for all these new coaches. Something was going to have to suffer.
Boosters should step in and fund the trip. Or would that be a violation?

They won't do it. I offered to help raise money in the past for more full band road trips and was basically told thanks but no thanks. That money could/would be used elsewhere.

When we went to Washington in 2009, they initially weren’t going to take a band. After enough fans complained, they eventually changed their mind and decided to send a pep band

I'm fully expecting this to happen.
