What an awesome show VSU "Trojan Explosion" marching band! The bands sound, the precision drill, the percussionist, the DM, the dancers, the Twirler, and that oh so INCREDIBLE flag team were all amazing. I enjoyed every minute of that show. Well done VSU Director of Bands and Staff. SU Human JukeBox alum here in full support of all of our HBCU band programs.
