BandHead REACTS to Bethune-Cookman Marching Wildcats Band | National Battle of the Bands 2022

[@delvinsalaam]

Yes, he was drum major, at BCU, and Bcu drum majors did create that move back around 09. The kid who made this famous on tic tic admitted he seen that from watching cookman and tried it and everybody thought he made that up. Give respect where is due, my guy

[@sharonjohnson4986]

As far as playing Old songs it's the fact that they cater to everyone ole school alumni attend the classic too

[@JaaB23]

We be snapping lol

[@carolynmcwilson497]

Dem Tubas and the horns smooth as silk!

[@kidd5952]

We did invent that move, it's just that everybody taken it and using and paying homage to the dance. 💪🏽💯 HAIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL WILDCATS

[@AFLive]

You know what's Funny , I SAW HIM PERSON and dudes came up to him "Hey Mr. Deduction" . . He just smiled and knuckle bumped them 🤣🤣

[@delvinsalaam]

Yall laughing, but he will deduct your ass for being tardy, not dancing 100 percent, marching he will pull you off the field and replace your ass quick. He didn't give you a scholarship to come here and walk and not play and give your all. That's the difference with Mr. Wells. He wants and builds real musicians

[@victoriabostick2935]

Fair assessment as well. I am a Wildcat and yes they do play different songs on the field and mostly the same songs in the stands. That needs to change, but if you really know music they have it hands down. On field or in the stands. We could also do better with our field routines but its telegraphed because they feature the 14k's for a song and then the flags. Otherwise yall know nobody else has that phenomenal sound and discipline overall but THE PRIDE!!!

[@17.5tye_banz]

They always play up to date music in their field show, but they stand tunes are on repeat

[@WillemKing08]

I was just about to say that I'm glad you did.

[@TheTeamIsSHaRP]

​@@keepingupwithnasaun7782 Exactly, they'd have to play FAMU, EWC, and FMU to get a band season. Daytona Beach is a lovely place to visit. It's just too far to be there on the regular.

[@victoriabostick2935]

Also listen to con funkshun "loves train" thats the sound cookman was going for . Beautiful sound and arrangement

[@mskcnicole]

Cookman is one of the best bands. They played new stand music. This is a good first show. #Hailwildcats

Cookman always play new songs on the field lol its just the stands they were hold out on.

[@jboggy27]

Good and fair assessment.

[@leeg.1269]

Good review KB. They did a great job. They kind of have a broadway show band kind of sound if that makes sense.

[@KBThaBandhead]

Big facts!!

[@thenamejosh_2176]

Mannn I like Bethune and their unique old school sound. That loves train was dope fasure but them tubas lowkey not as strong as they usually are. Great reaction bro ‼️

[@aboriginalmuur1661]

I agree! As a former member of the section I’ll admit that this our first “rebuilding” year as a section in 35 years, that’s an impressive run for any section. They’ll be back to that normal RocK resonance and sound in a few more weeks. They’re working hard man.

[@jboggy27]

Yeah they are ten tubas short from previous years.

[@aboriginalmuur1661]

@@jboggy27 it’s not a numbers thing with us, the section is just rebuilding and doing a nice job.

[@delvinsalaam]

Yall gonna stop trying cookman. WE ALWAYS PLAY NEW SONGS ON THE FIELD. maybe not in the stands all the time, cuz we just live everybody else, southern still plays "Swang, Gangsta B, love is key, " etc. Every school has those songs that are good marches for stands tunes that can be used for coming years, example : Da butt, etc

[@sharonjohnson4986]

The Hate is real

[@sellina4life]

They do have a great sound. I didn’t really like the changes to the chord progressions in Loves Train.

[@LIEJD]

I don’t think we’ll see the move anymore unfortunately I think may have moved on from it because of the trend 🥺

No one boos bands at the BOTB. It’s an exhibition essentially where the crowd turns up for their school of choice but shows love to all of the HBCU bands representing. And yes, I was there a well.
