I have talk to peeps that were there, and The Blue & Gold Machine, showed up and showed out!  One of my Legion Buddies, says, A&T is off the Chain, and they had nothing bad to say about "THE BLUE & GOLD MARCHING MACHINE"

>:(Wow. The crap being said in this forum is a clear depiction of the downward spiral of the essence of Aggie Pride...especially the first topic discussed--the NSU v.s. A&T game. It might be in all of our best interests to find out why exactly the band does not play as much as they usually do. Actually, right before the NSU/A&T game I heard that the MEAC and the administration recently lessened the band's playing time, saying that they were previously violating MEAC rules. Pure BS! How is that possible?  When other bands come to our stadium, they play when they feel like it and seem to never be penalized for it. Fishy--very fishy. This is what REALLY makes our band look like they don't match up to the opposing band, if you would like to know. In fact, if you attended the game against DSU today, you CLEARLY saw this. I was sitting in the section next to the band, and watched as the TRUTH unfolded. It was almost as if the powers that be purposely extended the commercials on the big screen so that the band couldn't play. At one point there were four pointless commercials back-to-back, as the band stood ready to play, but because the commercials took up the whole time out, they didn't get to play and sat back down. You could see that the students were upset. ALSO, despite circumstances, the band still SANG their songs when they weren't allowed to play.....I mean geez, give credit where credit is due. If that's not dedication to your crowd and your school, I don't know what is. SO... An opinion is one thing--ignorance is another. Check your facts before you make your ASSumtions about our band--yes, OUR band--because even if the band sucks a$$ or if they are truly the best band in the land, YOU are still an Aggie. Therefore, the band belongs to you because you are directly associated with them ---since you are an AGGIE. Right??? So love them as you would any other band with dancers in "bras and panties." Think about it. |

I've said it once and I'll say it again: band geeks are the most defensive people I have ever met.
I wish our football players circled the wagon in tough times like the machine zealots always do. You guys should be commended for your undying loyalty.
