hmmmmmm......this will be interesting if we're not up to par.....i have faith tho I have faith also that they will compete..but at the same time they dont prepare for each game like they should. The kids dont have the fire and aggression or really understand the art of a band battle. They are not taught that stuff, that is why wssu does not respect the band at all.

I'm hearing that if we don't properly prepare for WSSU, we will get embarrassed. Their band director has already stated and I quote "They can't sit in a 5th with us...they aren't ready for that!" So if the little thought of looking past Winston entered anyones' mind in G'boro, don't do it.

I would be highly upset if we weren't prepared for the "DIRTY THIRTY", I doubt if the Ram Marching Band is any better than they were the year before, The Blue & Gold Marching Machine has been preparing for this game since July, so the question is..............................WILL The Marching Rams, be prepared when the "AGGIES" enter Bowman-Gray, SEE YA THERE! The focus is always the BIG DOGS of THE MEAC, "THE Marching Wildcats", "The Legion" and "The Marching 101"

Ooo, I was saying they are not taught aggression and the confidence to be the best each and every week. What I see from them is more so being cocky because of past seasons. I also say wssu does not respect the band because that is what they are taught. They only get up for the big bands such as FAMU and BCC.

I heard the band playing about a week ago and they sound really good. They only have about 10 tubas but they looked to be well over 200 strong. They will blow WSSU out of the stadium, trust me!

I got a funny feeling that a few more tubas will be there by September 5th. I wonder if NCCU will try claim that biggest band crap agin on the PA. The differnece is not about size but its about the music and arrangements.
FAMU had way over 300 plus and they sounded like crap last year.

I also heard winston was about the same size as A&T and going to put a foot in the Aggies butt. Whoa! Interesting theory. I'll be there to see if such an event takes place. I avoid seeing the band at camp this year so that'll be my introduction to the 2009 edition.

That's what I figured. WSSU may be a little bigger size wise than in most years assuming the scuttle butt is true, which it may very well be, but musically this will not even be a contest.
The Aggies will be ginned up their first time out in public this season... and on the road too? Pure showtime.
The B&GMM will stomp a mudhole in them.
