Capital City Classic Clips


I totally agree with you and 4demjags.....I give credit where credit is due. I love to be entertained by any band. Unfortunately for us, we've been under some bad direction and it shows on the field.

Expect the same next year; Until JSU raises the Band Director's salary we will get another Liddell or Murray caliber Band Director.
 



I can't see how JSU messed up the diminshing box drill at the end of the season. That is one of the easiest drill to do. JSU you suppose to get better not worst towards the end of the season especially when you are doing the same entrance and same floating JSU across the field. Not hating just speaking the truth and I believe SU is the most consitent band in the SWAC but I don't like what they putting on the field either. This is coming from a 80's Jukebox member. The new kids of today are destroying what the HBCU band directors of past build up

Well resepcted opinion.......and very true, it's almost like a team throwing a game to get the coach fired by giving a half azz effort.
 
NO WE NEED DR. MCGRUDER AND WARE BACK, AND OUT WITH THIS NO CLASS ALCORNITE!!!!!


We need someone that is going to bring back the tradition to the Sonic Boom that were lost during the Lewis Liddell era!

“Swing-n-Sway, Straight lines, Big Band Sound and Showmanship!

Let McGruder stay where he is! We don’t need another Liddell prodigy as Band Director, we already have one (Murray) and he is not the person for the job! Sonic..Sonic..Sonic..Sonic…Boom!


I disagree Magruder is not a Liddell prodigy, another reason he left, however when Magruder was Ast. DOB the band had a much better sound, he worked and made sure the music was crisp clean and had the BIG BAND sound and when it was time to crank he let the band loose. He also believed in “SHAKING THE TREEâ€￾ to see who knew the music in front of everyone. This brought about accountability and musicianship, members striving to be their best to keep from being embarrassed. He left because Liddell wudnt hear or consider his efforts to change the field show into a more showmanship routine while keeping tradition. I dislike SU,ASU, & FAMU but some of their field shows are much more entertaining than ours. Note: J5 is nolonger J5 its J2, J3, & J4. Just an opinion. go to youtube listen to the bands of 01 02 03 and listen to the 10 09 08. music wise im telling we have fell off but because of the name SONIC BOOM we still get alot of good musicians recruited. Murray is SLAW as they come he is in the same category with Ringold. SLAW SLAW then hes an ALCORNITE can we get a JSU alum.
