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. NCCU was about 150 at best. NCCU & WSSU have to pad their numbers because they are up against the best in the state of NC in performance and sound.

o yea the crabs are real soft For the record (for those that have never been in the band), the crabs are always weak! Except for the year that they crabbed of course. The '92 crabs could chew iron and ishhh out steel. When we got hungry, we used to eat raw beef while the cow was still grazin', all while rippin out the hearts of opposing bands, and keeping in step. The '93-'09 crabs? All a bunch of weak, spineless panzies ;D

I dont like Winston at all, but for some reason I enjoy the beginning of their signature song Get Up.

I can't wait. This is good info. I was wondering how we looked. In the past few years we just seemed to look smaller. But to me, if the band is having fun & chanting then all is well with me. I just hope that whenever they play in Aggie stadium, the jumbotron commercials will be managed a little better. Sometimes it breaks up the flow and everybody is watching TV. I know that it is about the $ and I have to live with it, but if we dont watch ourselves we may not hear the band as much in the stands during the actual game.

Muscially, as good as ever, maybe a little better than last year at this same time.

You are right AggieOne, they sound really good, and they have good numbers just not many tubas. I understand that at the beginning of camp they had 20 or more tubas but they had to fire a few of them for breaking rules and that a few more quit. It looked as if what ever they lost with the tubas they have added to the trumpet section. They have plenty of trumpets.
