Hating doesn't equate to posting what YOU want to hear. It's as if folks can't be honest around here.

People who dont know music won't understand. ... Name me Five 22 year-olds from a HBCU band that can arrange that and ill shut up
Hell some older band directors cant do it
Hell some older band directors cant do it
Jsu has a young staff that does most if the arranging.. Mr. Little assoc director....is young & Mr. Prewitt is young.....both was writing when they were marching at JSU. & they were capable then & now. But....Brian is truly a amazing arranger!!!! Haymer is reallly great. Taylor is the greatest....he just don't have the time.....yet , but will. But, its not ya age......but ya talent & how u see things.
Brian is great at only 22!!!!!!! But one thing I can say... Haymer ain't playing.......dude is a beast!!!!!!.. & the jukebox is on some other shat....& gonna give folks pure hell this year!!!!! Only one has a chance in my opinion ...that....is jsu. Its not about who the loudest anymore its about the whole package SU ain't playing.... & Jsu getting better & better at drilling & arranging!!. These to schools have such great staffs & love for music & tradition. They have great alumni also.

That's what I've been saying for the past two years. I'll take balance over noise most days.
Me Too and it's little slower than how I know that number to be

Not gonna lie THIS IS CLASSIC. No need to hate, he stepped out the box and nailed it. The only answer to this is probably a march lol, unless someone writes some of those hellafied Earth Wind & Fire tunes, Brass Construction, etc. This song would have really been strong under Doc Greggs when SU's trumpets were strong as hell.

onward and upward son!
it takes some chops to play that, but I just never was a fan of the song when Queen made it, so I still don't care for it.

CFB AM: Southern band performs stellar version of iconic Queen song
A major part of why we all love college football is its culture.
At nearly every school a significant chunk of that culture is tied to the band.
I never take the appropriate amount of time to appreciate what the best college bands do, so this is one instance that calls for slowing down and enjoying.
This past Saturday, Southern opened its season at Louisiana-Lafayette.
It didn’t win the game, but its band – the Southern Human Jukebox – had an awesome moment when it performed this fantastic rendition of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.†If you’re not familiar with one of the most iconic rock songs ever, here’s the original song – it has more than 103 million views on YouTube.
