HBCU bands are the greatest thing ever created.

[@shaiquanaddison4318]

Them damn tubas on "love don't live here anymore" eargasm

[@rorschach162]

Fantastic

[@Rodamus22]

I was there and it was truly amazing! I am a SWAC man but got dam NC A&T showed up and SHOWED OUT PERIOD!!!!

[@riptide1980]

The Emotion that you see on the faces of some of the members at the end of the show speak volumes. The BGMM member at 12:42 says it all.

[@robertbovell618]

I am a new parent and it is a family on that field and in the stands and those seniors do get very emotional cause it is the last show

[@shakiradonyelle7944]

Enjoyed the bands yesterday but really only went to see NCA&T...the baddest band! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@March-1-1]

I honestly can't get Faith Evans LOVE DON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE OUT OF MY HEAD!!!! I actually paid for KZbin Red so I can listen to that arrangement everytime I get in my car!!! Future AGGIE here.

[@danceguru8656]

Lol.. I feel the same way😂😂

[@donzaleighdouglas4621]

Ncat Btones really improved since Queen City. Also Thomas you wrote the hell out of that ballad, having the woodwinds come to the front 🔥.

[@iXperienceIII]

Bria Jackson just imagine if they switched all the baritone players to euphonium

[@ThomasLJonesJr]

Having both baritones and euphoniums gives us greater harmonic depth and color. Having baritones allows us to bridge the gap between the timbres of the trombone and euphonium to make for a much fuller ensemble sound...

[@Eusi1984]

you also use flugelhorns... thats awesome !! your sound is incredible !! awesome show !!! coming from an SU fan

[@davionbattle7664]

Excellent job on the show Thomas Jones!

[@lik3th3sun]

i have been watching this band since 7th grade...back in 2012, and I have been in love with this band ever since. you guys have grown so much and you never cease to amaze me. Hopefully, I will be accepted to NC A&T and able to join the BGMM in August 2018! ~Aggie Pride!!!!

[@servania1892]

I'm one of the drum majors at NCAT and we would love to have you next fall, are you coming to the high school musical blowout in the spring?

[@lik3th3sun]

I don't know when that is. I really want to go! Hopefully it's before testing.

[@servania1892]

it'll be April 29th, if you go to izkkpsi.wixsite.com/1990/blowout-2016 there's all the info

[@Zphidrummer]

Servania Can graduate students march?

[@ThomasLJonesJr]

Actually, grad students are able to march, as long as they are enrolled full time at the graduate level.

[@KellieAlston]

That "Love Don't Live Here" was extraordinary!!! This entire performance was outstanding! Not a dull moment. The fact that they had a theme focused on a record label's body of work was very creative.

[@AnimeAngelization]

I have literally listened to "Love don't live here anymore" back to back since Honda. That ballad is simply beautiful

[@jacintaingram9002]

was there watching our Daughter Golden Delight Captain!!! Aggie Pride!!

[@danceguru8656]

Well she performed great.. Love the Golden Delights!!

[@Tubastein1]

Hate I wasn't there to see it in person but outstanding job! AGGIE PRIDE!!! BGMM Fall '84 ThundAr OG "Chil Wil" Always outnumbered but NEVER outgunned!

[@nassaumadejjp431]

Its 2020 in couple hrs and the show never gets old

[@nassaumadejjp431]

almost 2025 and this show is still fire

[@johnhodge10]

They played that slow song like it mattered to them. Outstanding!!! Love the energy & power. That's Aggie Pride. Excellent job Dr. Jones.

[@thecollegeroomtv435]

Right!! That is Music!

[@ADay-kh8px]

A&T has proven over the past several years that they are the real deal. IMO, they have taken over as the #1 band in the land. It is very clear to me. The claim for #1 must come through Greensboro. Keep raising the bar A&T. I love it!

[@dperfect28]

Standing Ovation from this Wildcat!! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@dperfect28]

***** Being different ain't pay off for A&T, NY Times pick BCU as the #1 band at Honda 👀👀

[@dperfect28]

NY Times is racist😂😂😂..conversation don't need to go further

[@YolandaJ_1913]

Aggie Born! Aggie Bred! You made us proud! It's good enough for me! Aggie Pride!!! c/o 2007!

[@bigponitus778]

[@JNichelle]

PROUD AGGIE ALUM!!! "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" was amazing!

[@robertfreeman5402]

Awesome!!! I loved it the entire time (even though I mistakenly sat facing away from NCAT 😡) but anyway, the ending of that ballad was everything! 🔥🔥

[@rayrayy7864]

I love when NCAT plays "One More Chance" and I love the creative choreo GD did! 😍

[@dalionkeyng3476]

A&T had a great show and I'm a BCU fan

[@ProfessorSnape22]

Beautiful performance was reminiscing being the crowd maan felt so good i was so moved by this. Felt so good in my soul

[@NKLnDime]

I'm a dyed in the wool, old, band head. I've watched a kazillion marching band videos and this is one of the very best I've ever seen/heard! Not that anyone would care, lol, but my honest and unbiased grades are as follows: Sound - Woooo weeee! Exceptional, A+! Dancers, Flags - They have real physicality and actual dance prowess and can do something besides shake their azzes and grind their pelvic areas. Synchronicity darn near perfect. Tasteful, classy and exceptional routines, A+. Cold Steel - Routines nice, playing very good, but could've chosen better music/cadences to showcase their talent, B+. Overall Entertainment - B+ LOVED IT!!!!! NOTE: I always grade (in my mind). I was in band competitions back when God was a kid. Also went to quite a few when my kid played in high school (would grade in my programs). One lady sitting next to me (from another school but not the one on the field) asked why I graded that band higher than my son's. "Our band was good (A), but that Cali band just kicked EVERYBODY's azz (A++)! That's why lol, lol 😀😀!"

[@danielbrown7115]

I do thanks for your assessment. I'm just old.

[@ProfessorSnape22]

this is so beautiful I'm so glad I was there to witness all of this .. I'm so proud of you guys

[@fountainmedia4683]

WOW! Bravo! 👏 I had to come back and watch this show again! My god they sound so beautiful, and just simply amazing! What a show! That "Love Like This Before" by Faith Evans sound so damn beautiful! I've hit rewind and listen to that now about 10x's. And Golden Delight! OMG, they have to be hardest working dance team among ALL HBCU's. I mean all those ladies look as if they've been practicing 24/7! I mean they have a routine for every song. They never get tired of dancing! The NCAT Aggie band definitely the #1 band in the MEAC! FAMU, BCU, and the rest don't even compare, nor do they come anywhere near to touching this band! The NCAT Aggie band the TOP dogs of the MEAC, and that's for damn sure! Well done Director Of Bands WELL DONE! 👏👏👏

[@danceguru8656]

Totally agree.. Golden Delight is the hardest, most creative, & versatile HBCU danceline out here..😘😘

[@richard7930]

All I hear is load blaring and drums until y’all finally got to love don’t live hear anymore you started out ok but went back to noise that was not that good, I gotta say those dancers are bueatiful, but ASU ain’t no walk over,and don’t say nothing about those FLA bands they are better than anything I’ve seen as far as musicianship you can’t touch FAMU, sorry . No brag just fact

[@Marcusc20091]

[@Jen_ell]

The musicianship and art of it all. This was excellent.

[@justlookin9458]

GREATTTT Show!! None like it and none better. With no doubt they 'Own The Dome.' I'll be up front and say that I've never really enjoyed listening to T's tubas but I have to give credit where it's due, especially towards the end of that ballad. Nice way to end the season. I look forward to the next BGMM season!!

[@aflatb]

Amazing job!!! So Proud to be an Aggie!!!!

[@brodylanetx]

Something about those horns gets me warm in my chest lol, maybe cause my mom was a drum major while pregnant with me lol this vid is bad ass better than the movie drum line Lol

Glad to hear a good recording with video other than the dome echo chamber. Great blend of styles.

[@hojack13]

The Rolls Royce arrangement - Tuba part is amazing and played with finess...by far the best performance from a Tuba line -BGMM '91 -KKY91IZ

[@inkblot314]

This makes me want to join NCAT

[@TravellerMac]

Thank god Faith Evans was kept around in the bandroom, I miss playing that song. Used to fuck up my whole head, hearing myself in that ensemble.

[@koolingken5045]

Good Show. shoulda played something going off. Killed it tho. Music. Marching. Concept.

[@ufundi1]

A&T's performance (.. music selection; musical arrangements; sound quality; auxiliary (flags; dance team; drum majors)) was excellent. One weakness, though: A&T needs to be about 300 people instead of near 200 for visual optics and sound projection purposes. If this were implemented, A&T would crush all other bands; without it, A&T always remains a top 5-10 band surrounded by others (... BCU, FAMU, PVA&M, etc.).

[@dsmyasnroblox3340]

I love it

[@TheQuincyT118]

Do you have a band room recording of Notorious Thugs?

[@melissayoung6892]
