Kudos to the Machine for the Stevie Wonder Themed show: *Click To View Show*Personal opinion, but I love when the machine puts on a Themed show. They always come out well put together and quite entertaining. (ie. Mary J. Blige & '09 Honda ATL Shows) I liked what i was hearing from the band this week, I thought the sound was "full bodied" (Shoutout to all my wine drinkers ) and a lot more mature than the VUL game. Whatever kinks from labor day seem to have been tweaked and I was glad that "All I Do" made a comeback. That arrangement of "Knocks Me Off My Feet" was superb and "Do I Do" was a nice unexpected ending to the show...over all a good show and i cant wait to see what's in store for the rest of the season.

Yeah i love the tunnel routine from the new spot, but it takes way too long to get in. There were a couple of times where we had the ball and Cold Steel was banging it out and it looked like the players couldn't hear the coaches on the sideline.

I agree aggiemonster. Great marketing for the band and a added dimension to our game experience. I expect a lot of kids will be inspired to pursue music & become a BGMM member after watching 'da tunnel". Drop a positive message to Dr. Ruff: kgruff@ncat.edu

I know the band blasting during plays can be disruptive but are drum cadences also causing confusion with play calling? I wish I could get more input on this from a football player. If so, might as well turn Aggie stadium into a morgue. Perhaps the band should just walk into the stands. Dang.

Always will be a few sour grapes in the bunch!

The A&T Band gets complaints about performing on their way into the stands. How do football teams hear in stadiums with 40,000 to 50,000 fans screeming? If we didn't see or hear the band somebody would complain. It's going to take some time to get the timing down for the band in the new seating.
