I was impressed when their band performed at halftime at a LSU game in the 90s. There is a level of respect.

Think of the Aggie band like a real good drag performer. They are so good you are almost fooled in thinking you are a seeing a woman.

They are also a military based unit. LSU was once a military based school also in the beginning so there is a respect there

This is the answer.

I’ve always enjoyed their band. If TGBFTL enjoys it, then so should we.

There was also mutual respect between the bands. The home band would bring refreshments to them in the third quarter. The band service fraternity would do it. I don’t know is any of that goes on today. People are a lot less respectful these days. It’s been 40 years

The amount of self centeredness among the youth of today is staggering.

This makes no sense, opinions smell? Very homo-erotic, Aggie type statement.

Aggie band is a great military band with strong tradition
They are not a military band, they are a band that plays dress up.

they should be welcomed here and appreciated for what they do.
Appreciated for what? Being a rude, boorish guest? Appreciated? Are you saying we should thank them for their service playing dress up in the Aggie band? @40% of Corps of Cadets join an ROTC program or try to pursue the military. Good for them, but the rest don’t and are acting.

hate to bust you bubble but there are 10 or so bands that can rival the TGBFTL
Not a single soul here thinks that or cares.

Booing the Aggie band last nogjt was embarrassing
The Aggie band’s behavior last night was embarrassing.
Go to Bryan, Texas if you want to blow Aggies, not here. I guarantee there are 1000’s of Aggie “soldiers” that would welcome that.

I dont know but it was very satisfying participating in booing those idiots.

I had the unfortunate luck of having to sit next to a smug aggie and his lady. They were chirping before the game. In the "opening ceremonies" they were laughing and hooping ad hollering while sitting down because when everyone stood up they realized what it was and then sat down.

Then when the DJ played that rap remix of that "we ready" song. They were laughing and shaking their heads and chirping everyone.

Dude got to cheer like 3 times. Then spent the rest of the game leaning forward resting his chin on his hands. Me and my wife told them to enjoy that long ride home when they got up and left in the 3rd. They didnt say a word back hahahahaha. They were dressed ridiculous too

So we don't have to see another rendition of old, out of date show tunes with people marching around and swishing pieces of cloth on a pvc pipe! And the idea of precision marching, as demonstrated by TGBFTL decades ago and the current Aggie band, is evidently not taught by LSU Band Music Dept as those lines sag like prison pants.

For 20 years or so LSU and A&M played in Baton Rouge every year. The Aggie band always marched at halftime.
