Grambling State University Marching In Their 2019 Homecoming Parade

[@barakudawarrior7010]

Why many of you so negative regarding these young people. They should be lift up with positivity instead of being put down. I'm proud of them as you all should be. These young people work hard in school and doing what they love with this band. If you don't like what they do, then you should do something to help them become better than talking. These students most likely read your comments.

[@beverlymorgan4197]

HBCU bands are the best,so much Soul and rhythm Went to an HBCU and proud of it.

[@anjulwyngz1]

GSU Marching Band will always be my first love in regards to HBCU bands. I grew up in a small (predominantly white) TX town. Went to a parade in Dallas, TX (can't remember the reason for the parade). They stopped to perform where I was standing. Talk about amazed! I was blown away! Dancing and playing music at the same time !?!?! What?!?!? I wanted to follow them for the remainder of the parade. Mom wasn't having it, though. LOL! Up until that point, I had never seen a marching band perform like that! This was over 25 years ago....but a memory I'll never forget! Thanks for the memories!!!

[@b4light202]

We have some talented kids. We need to see more of this..not always the bad stuff. Sharp.

[@PASTORKable]

NOTHING LIKE AN HBCU BAND LOVE IT.

[@terrelllewis7508]

The GSU band also performed in the Obama inaugural parade both times. ... Marsha, GSU alumni, Miss March, 1977.

As a native Louisianian, I have always felt that GSU was underrated.

That cadence has been updated. My Jr High (and later high school) band director was Malcolm Spencer. He was a graduate of GSU and back in the late 70s, early 80s this was our cadence. I remember that four and eight count and the little dip on the eight. Memories.

not updated just introduced new cadences because the addition of the tri-toms

15:58 make me love this video even more, the energy they have in this video is out of this world. They are doing so great this year and people need to stop trying to violate them.

[@terridorsey5861]

Have always love this band. Went to the games and the battle of the bands always in N O L A. Was relocated to Arkansas and cant travel now anymore because of my leg. Lost the left one from Katrina and they mansge to save the right which is bad now. Keep marching Grambling from a true fan.

I marched in this band in the mid-eighties when discipline was still instilled deeply in our core. What is up with these tired-looking drum majors? Where is that 90 degrees pop in your march? A bit disappointed that the crisp 90 degrees in the knees don't seem like a requirement anymore.
