I won't disagree with you becasue I am in that same category... However, everything is relative....and NONE of them will say that Grambing is better than us. Just because we dropped off doesn't mean we dropped below *ram. That would NEVER happen.

I'm trying to be nice but, since you keep insisting.

Read some of the comments sometimes. You seem like a mature and opened minded person.
I don't know why I bother. I know you seen these already and that I might see them again next year JSU!

TP you are so clueless and stuck in time! JSU has fallen off the chart in drilling and arrangements! While Grambling is getting better, JSU is still living off the past, you would think JSU folks thought Dowell Taylor was still there, but it seems you all are stuck in a time! Now Bama State, Valley, Alcorn and A&M need to step it back up, the SWAC will be solid from top to bottom!

Glad you see the improvements lol! This statement alone tells all!:clap:

Again..EVERYTHING is relative. JSU went to Grambling this year and most people called the battle a toss up or gave halfime to GSU and the stands to JSU. Not that the BOOM was bad at all but I even gave halftime to GSU becasue of their ending BUT it's TOTALLY sad that a band has supposedly improved so much just to STILL only be able to barely compete with a BOOM that you all claim to have fallen off....and since u from SUcks, u shouldn't mention the words fallen off.

Ok....my opinion stays the same. A&T makes straighter lines than JSU but their drills are simple. Make a line and stand in place.....
Grambling ain't much better. The BOOMs drill is steady and they don't stand in place during half the drill. Grambling only makes a line a walks for about ten yards....makes another line and walks for about 5 yards and then stand still. That shit is just simple. Sorry but I ain't impressed by simple drills.

OK,....this concludes my conversation with you because you really don't know nothing about marching bands. You don't know what clean water looks and taste like when you have been use to drinking water that's dirty. You like who you like. That's your business. Opinions from those like you will never be a factor to me.Ok....my opinion stays the same. A&T makes straighter lines than JSU but their drills are simple. Make a line and stand in place.....

The tangents that these threads take always amazes me. Let's see if we can get back to the point.
I don't know or care who started playing what in '07. Legend35's arrangement for GSU is very different from the one in the JSU clip. Legend knows why I know they are different. :swink: Legend's point about JSU playing the tune after hearing GSU play is probably valid.
SIVAD had an arrangement of the tune in the JSU library when I got to Jackson in the Fall of '79. It was much more of an R&B groove than either of the two arrangements noted in the original post that started this thread. I don't think SIVAD's arrangement has ever been heard publicly.
There are things I like about both arrangements, but I think GSU played theirs better between the two clips provided. I, too, dispise it when trumpet players try to scream and end up hanging over cutoffs.

Maybe I am lost as to WHY JSU would want to play a song because Grambling played it.
Also, the convo nvr changed. The TOPIC was always about JSU stealing from other bands when I don't see anything remotely similar about JSU and GSU ....thank goodness. Also did GSU play this songs in Jackson or Bham vs JSU in 2007 or something? I am STILL waiting on a list of AAAAAAAAAAAAALL this stuff we stole. Seems like the crickets have taken over. 35, don't be a coward, if you got the "Things JSU stole list", come on wit it! :lmao: Also, if you dont thing Grambling's drill's are elementary compared to JSU's in complexity, then say so. It ain't hard to refute with all these videos around. Regardless, the bottom line remains that when a "much improved" GSU met up with JSU, seems that most thought they were even so again a slaw JSU is as good a Gram on a good year. That's the only point you can make at this point.

OK... so THIS is your point. If that is true, then u should be flattered but a band simply playing another song evidence of copying. Shame on JSU if they copied some the arrangement from Grambling (of all bands...yes, that is low and sad)...THAT is a totally different subject that u were not clear to suggest throughout this conversation so you must not be very confident in your assertation.

Complexity and JSU shouldn't even be in the same sentence! Dowell Taylor has been long gone bruh! Just face the facts!LMAO:lol:

Just like Greggs is long gone.... your 2000's band is nothing like your 90's band so you have no room to talk. But don't show your ignorance. The TYPE and style of our drills are the same as during the Taylor era just as SU's is the same as it was back then. The difference now is execution. But few bands could execute as many drills as we do at the pace that we keep as well as JSU. Watch a Grambling drill and JSU drill and u will see how simple those GSU drills are.

So just because someone agrees with ya'll, they right... lol Trust me, no one dogs out the BOOM like JSU alums (including me) but that does not change the fact that the BOOM is better than Grambling on our WORST day. Heck, no one dogs out our coaching staff, ect... more than us too but uuuum, we were STILL better than 90% of the SWAC last year. Ya dig!

yall are usually better than 90% every year....We all know SU is never in that 90%.... :tup:

TP,....you must have a lot of time on your hands. The legend has nothing to prove to you. At the end of the day, it don't take long for me to take into consideration,...you never served a day in uniform. You don't know how much work goes into making something difficult look easy. You don't know a whole note from a flatted fifth. You don't know what 221/2 inches means or the term review. So really,...why bother????
THE END OF SPEAKING!!!
