The light skin dude is Micky H. The dark skin dude is Miques. These guys work hard. Super proud of all the trumpets…

👏🏾👏🏾

[@tsumello06]

Mickey if the truth... It's been great watching him grow over the years

[@j_y06]

Txsu screamers been on it the whole season. That grand D was HEARD in houston last august too 😭

[@bulletinmusic7411]

I play trumpet going on 10 years and at 23:11 my soul my fuckin soul left my body when i heard that triple D man had me crying out here

[@skylarfezia5357]

Txsu has always let students arrange and direct; coming from a former ocean of soul member. Glad he keeping the style and tradition just adding his own lil twist🌊❤️

[@runwaycoach6442]

I love watching Simmons pour animation into his directing. I know the students respond to his passion with love and passion as well!

[@EsotericEtherDavis]

2nd student arranger put out songsfor NOASB.. heard good things about him..

[@jarriedwilson7809]

That trumpet player is a monster

[@clarasbrown8780]

As Ocean Alum, this is the best we have sounded in almost 20 years. This Ocean sounds like they are in shape; the endurance is amazing, arrangements are great. #Whoosh4Ever

🌊💪🏽Your band director’s favorite band 🩶♥️

[@gregorymorris1467]

Behind that jukebox this is my second favorite band. They might not be huge in numbers Brian is definitely making musicians over there. It was a few moments but the clarity of this band to me set them apart from a lot of your big bands. Keep up the good work.

[@Rossgamin73]

F you mean is a student arrangement as well

Brah them trumpets had the band director turn around twice

[@mrfamu]

Well damn first song go crazy

[@sordidC]

They hate is real. They sound great and BECAUSE of that....people are commenting insults. 😂😂

[@dennarddancer1960]

Southern and JSU people insult each other all the time. That's their way of giving kudos. So when you see people throwing insults and shade at the Ocean, just take that as a compliment. If Ocean wasn't a force to reckon with no one would be paying them any attention...!!!!

[@loganbarrow-davis1951]

You should definitely react to the COLDSTEEL drumline 2024 Soundcheck Battle of the Bands performance this past weekend in Florida 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@djhuh2012]

Ok there has been a shift in Tiger zone. The percussion section. I do not see nor feel the funk. I see they still have the quints but I see Southern all in this. Its cool and i can accept the change. May be for the better. Better bottom control. The bass heads got some muffling going on. I say go back to L.wig silver dots or Remo black dots. Snares great control. This band season looks promising for real. I love it.

When u gone do my jsu vs Alcorn 2019 0 quarter reaction

2nd selection was Tems Vibe Out

That's first 1 a nice arrangement they ÐO sound good too.

Boy if TX SU had them deep number's it would be over , cause the arrangement there.

[@kelvinleigh473]

What’s the name of the song Mr Simmons directed 🎉that cut was slamming 💯

[@runwaycoach6442]

I just know it’s by Tems if I remember correctly

[@Tuma-kl8sl]

This what i don’t get! It’s spring and people think this the whole band! These folks been recruiting! People graduated and people coming in after the summer! Shit some of the people you see here won’t be here in the fall! Just stay tuned

[@georgefoley2128]

That’s definitely not the whole band. I believe about 95% of students that you see in this video will be back next fall. I don’t really see any 2023/24 seniors in this video especially in that trumpet section.

It's more than one but that trumpet player waited till the very end of the song at 14:13 to hit that note 🤦🏽‍♂️ he's next to the light skin guy you pick out at 19:24 lol

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

I'm not impressed at all. It's easy when there ant no SU or JSU in front of you. Thats the real test. And what I'm hearing right now wont do it at all.

[@runwaycoach6442]

Well when you read the title of the video, what were you expecting/why were you expecting otherwise?

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

​@runwaycoach6442 Look kid. I was expecting something better than this. But hey it's ok with me if they want to get dogged out like they did last season. That's cool with me. But what I'm not about to do is act like they sound really good and they don't.

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

​@georgefoley2128 JSU. And if you didn't see that then you need to.

[@georgefoley2128]

lol The fact that you took the time to hate on this 130 piece band says a lot. The fact that you threw JSU and SU in the mix when them schools don’t have nothing to do with this video says a lot. The reason why 0ver 6,000 views came here and have good things to say and your one Punk *** comment says it all. The Ocean is a threat , has been and you sir most definitely is a Hater. It’s a couple of things I can tell you that Simmons and the ocean is not worried about and that Jackson State and Southern University. Get it together!

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

​@georgefoley2128 hey JSU abd SU have a lot to do with this because that's the test. Until they get past them they gone always just be ok. Look I don't think you understand kid. It's not hate it's being real. And TXSU not the only bad that have to past that test either. SU and JSU is the bands to beat And the video don't have to be about them because we that really know what's going on know that they are to 2 top bands

[@sspann11]

Simmons has to get to the point where he arranges for his band and not for the one he dreams of. His arrangements are still too aggressive for the guys who are holding the horns.

[@KBThaBandhead]

I don't see the problem with Simmons challenging his students. This is a college program at the end of the day.

[@t0nefr]

as a collegiate bandsmen, you should be able to play whatever is put in front of you. my personal opinion, but i’m in high school so idk nun about that

[@davettewiltz4394]

Simmons keep doing what you are doing! Your band sounds amazing…

[@georgefoley2128]

And name some bands that can play what he is putting before them ? I want to see this!
