I liked it as well. What’s the back story on that? It’s not often a non marching band performs at halftime at LSU games.

They did that in 2001 too.

You are correct my friend.

My grandson told me that it was Roy's idea to remove the hats in 2001 and that he got the idea from a drum core. I think it was the Phantom Drum Core. Not sure.

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.



Former TigerBand trumpet. (Late '80s.) I am extremely jealous of you for being a part of that show! The link below is my favorite regarding that show.

My all time favorite (still gives me chills to see it) was the first game in Tiger Stadium after 9/11 when they played Amazing Grace.

It wasn’t halftime but when the band played Walking To New Orleans before the Tennessee game after Katrina there weren’t very many dry eyes in the place.
