JSU sounds FUCKING AMAZING😳!!! A&M sounds good, too, but the BOOM is on a different level. The Divas were fine, and the J-Settes look like J-settes. Nothing to see there. Both look like they were ready to get to the bus to finish class assignments. I did notice the J-settes woke up whenever the band played a current tune 18:51😂😂😂😂

[@dto1270]

Both bands definitely gave... AAMUs band has a texture that I do appreciate... However, the Boom's song selections, arrangements, and execution took it🔥

I like both bands but Alabama needs to get some new arrangements. Most of there stuff is old and some arrangements tend to be kinda high schoolish. I think they need new directors because they have the potential to become a great band.

Both bands are elite...Boom just emits a huge sound with all those horns but A&M is not to be toyed with either

[@dripsipp]

I’m sorry to be elite you have to be a Top 5 HBCU Band. AAMU is not in that conversation. They sound better than previous years tho. Lastly the JSU’s travel band is about the same size as AAMU band and the boom could be smaller & still blowout AAMU.

Audio so crisp Kev 💯🫡

[@Travelwidedickygreenleaf]

1:38 classic great balanced sound, but 2:43 it gets out of A&M’s reach, JSU continues to expand their sound with good technique, followed with “joy and pain” something from a deeper book, and was not met head on. A&M has one of the most beautiful sounding bands in the conference, and most people are not aware of how great they are. JSU took it.

If The Boom entire band traveled …the other bands would leave the 5th early 😅

[@Downfield1992]

That's always been so silly to me. A band should present itself at all times not based on where we perform. The few left behind only add numbers not necessarily quality of sound IE that's why they're home
