I was proud to be a member of the SMB in 1967-68 and 1968-69, the former as one of the inaugural members of the flag corps. This video brings back some great memories from that time. I wrote about my experiences in my blog - ramblinrussells.blogspot.com/2022/07/msu-marching-band.html

Naw...this a "walking" band not a marching band😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great job to everyone who worked on this project! Well done. I am in the picture of the 1961 Percussion Section found at 0:39. I am the 4th from the right in the second row. For all of you modern percussionists, this was before the days of tuned bass drums and multi-toms -- they hadn't been invented yet. We had 7 snare drums (Joel Leach was section leader -- this was before Lutz got there), 3 tenor drums (snare drums without any snares), 2 bass drums and 2 cymbals.There were only 14 of us, so we had to play really loud! For those of you who know The Series, this was the year the 5/4 section was added. The percussion section has more than doubled in size since then.

***Said with pride: "I even made a baby cry once." Bahahaha 😂

two of the best things with stuff like this I would say is playing the music in front of so many people, and the social bit within the band

High-Step Marching Bands have been around for years... especially at HBCU's; many of which were the originators of this powerful marching style. MSU is good, but so are NSU Spartan Legion, FAMU, SU and many others.

Marching band is marching band and DCI is DCI. They should not be compared. Go MSU and GO Phantom Regiment!!!

For those who wanted DCI left out of this since they have nothing to do with college marching bands.... amazingly enough they are staffed with DCI alumnus teaching a DCI style of performance.from Santa Clara Vanguard and Phantom Regiment - with a large group of DCI members in the band. just sayin'

I did have a question regarding majors. Does Michigan State include Applied Music as one of the majors or Music Education?

This is why the SMB is awesome.

Ha! They took the plumes off the hats

FUCK YOU FOR NOT MAKING THIS AVALIABLE ON MOBILE

Go Rachel! Hope things are going well with you:)

hopefully i'll be playing mellophone there next year!

@ThePdiddles check out southern university and south carolina state university

great vid!!!

This brought a tear to my eye. Thanks guys

@hlywood72 Well, of course if you're talking about band or anything else, everyone style for the most part comes from the first person or the first people or entity to do something. A lot of high school bands who try to mix traditional and corps style together could probably learn a lot from watching MSU

I drove to East Lansing to watch the Homecoming parade the last three years on Friday night and was shocked to see the band in tee shirts and blue jeans. That evening on Flint Channel 12 news, they showed the band marching in uniform.....must have been file footage. Certainly not from that day, as I was there. The band sounded OK, but come on. The Michigan band would never be seen in public out of uniform.

Wow coolest video ever

Very good story. Really sad and it was put together very nicely.

i love the Alma Mater!!! my God!!! Beautiful!!!

MSU. The first real love of my life.

My 1s. It might as well have been written for the relationship I was in for 5 years.

pretty good!

eh...

this is a great song .and i love it so much

Awesome video, thanks for posting!

this video, was simply amazing from beginning to end. i loved it!!!!

Great video! Very nice marching, lots of intense traditions. The coordination of those backbends is impressive, as is the flag work. And congrats to Rachel for achieving her position as 2nd woman DM! And yes, I do go to the University of Michigan. Go Blue!

Very fine video work - from a gentleman I am so pleased so have had at least some impact on during his school years!!! (even if he is a Spartan) :)
