Why does the Human Jukebox get so much attention?

because it's black. that;s the only reason.

I’ve never heard of this

I’m officially old

Flashy attracts the simple.

Everything I see from them sounds awful. It sounds like a larger version of a high school band. It has to be more because of the flash and dancers than the actual music, right?

Why single out Southern? All the black college bands are like this.

Naw you're just not a south LA baw

I agree. They are terrible. They will play some song that is associated with the school and then some trendy hip hop song that’s popular and then they play some song so the girls and the instructor can dance.

I honestly think the really great NCAA marching bands that make huge tribute words or symbols and move in perfect symphony is way way way way more impressive to watch.

Y’all are some miserable fricks!

Actually they are very good as musicians with the dance and choreography being an addition. They come from all over the country to be in it. But like most marching bands they don’t sound well on TV and if you are not in the stadium it is hard to realize.

And I’d be willing to bet their isn’t one swinging dick in this thread that is at the game.

For the record I’m a right leaning WASP, in other words a minority, and I’ve been to 3 Bayou Classics and maybe a dozen games at Southern and Grambling. Try it sometime. They are highly entertaining and no reason to be scared.

No, a good musician would focus first on playing with control and not overblowing every note to play as loud and as blatty as possible and sounding like complete crap. When he can't do that simple thing you learn in sixth grade band class, maybe a good musician takes a step back and thinks, "You know, we sound like complete shite. Why don't we hold off on the dance moves until we get that fixed?".

The Human Jukebox is utter garbage. If that were Indiana University's band putting that tripe on the field, I guarantee you there would be a lot more people willing to say what a steaming load it is.
