Karr's warm-up shows why they have a good sound. Bands really need to get back to doing proper warming up, it develops tonality and helps with balance and blending.
St. Augustine High School undoubtedly won! Their sound and overall intonation were truly impressive, leaving no doubt as to who deserved the victory. Despite the challenging runs, they played with unparalleled clarity, conviction, and integrity. It's no secret that New Orleans has the absolute best bands!
I agree with you that NOLA has the best HS bands but KARR won this battle frfr. St. Aug finally got it back together and everybody on here wanna act like they the best band all of sudden. 🤣
@@KBThaBandheadThere it is. Your bias towards Karr is crystal clear!! “St. Aug finally got it together!!” So, we are talking about One song from last year? Make your comments about this current year. This is Mardi Gras 2024. Just keep Watching.
Although with difficulty I enjoyed St. Augustine arrangements the band directors got pens on em. got a little crisco on it as well. Too long though, but I see y’all
St. Aug has been known throughout their history for having very long songs that run 2-4+ mins. Lol St. Aug has been down after the storm, but they have one of the longest runs of being consistently a top 1-3 band in the state and having college level field shows. So even though they have been down since Mr. Hamp passed they still have that pride and confidence like they are #1.
That is because we never trouble ourselves with keeping up with the field or par, while everyone else rushed and ran to imitate it. Can’t out do an original.
Aug gives power, he says Karr was cleaner and more balanced. Aug gives clean and balanced, he says they didn’t give the same energy. It is what it is…..hope yall enjoyed what’s probably the best battle of the season.
If we are talking PoWER, KARR is the clear winner. If we're talking about execution and balance, both programs had their moments.. The most consistent sound in this battle goes to KARR.
@@KBThaBandhead I'm going to have to disagree with you I know we entitled to our opinions but half the city in New Orleans said St.Aug won I will challenge you to check out another video Smashtime video is directly centered where both schools on smack dab in the middle unlike the video you posted where he's on an angle directly across from trumpets of Karr school and that's not saying that was done deliberate but the sound comes off different in this video and comparison to other videos the truth is most people gave the win to St. Aug and that's here locally who were there at the time who are on live feeds and in the old school bandhead page of new orleans these were people who didn't attend either school that was just giving the honest opinion based on what they heard from being out there both schools have great programs but there's only one legendary School and that's Saint Augustine High School Grammy award-winning marching band three National parade marching band.
@@w.stewart3532 I ain't gon lie.. your comment sounds biased..especially the ending LOL. The camera debate is starting to get a little old don't you think. I've watched other videos and I still give the win to Edna Karr.
@@KBThaBandhead that last statement was based on a previous video you made in which you reference Landry as a legendary School know knot do the Buccaneers but to not acknowledge the real legendary School and that's not being biased that's reality but you're right opinions are like you know what we all have one
Abe was not playing it's lineup of the parade so there were a multitude of bands out there playing plus Southern University was out there that's what you heard the first time
Ray Aug Band director said let him get his song out the way this first song wasn’t part of battle. So Karr warm up an played song that’s why it’s so long.
@@YourGoat803 Not excuse because Karr had warm up so Aug BD want get his song in because he was gone let his assistant band director handle Karr battle so he played his song before battle so he could get out the way see u must wasn’t there lol people will tell you Aug first song wasn’t part of battle stop trying give Karr shit they lose this day 😂😂😂
I'm reading the comments, and everyone is saying that St. Aug songs are too long. The difference is they are not playing SU songs like all the other bands.
This is one of the only sites that said Karr won. There is inherently a bias in every review but St Aug winning is almost universal. My 2 cents, Karr was louder but St Aug was better. I feel the same way about Southern. If they concentrated on the sound as much as they concentrate on loudness and octaves, their sound would be elevated imo
One thing no one talks about is that St. Aug is ALL Boys and the other Bands like Karr has girls in them. The physicality of playing has to be accounted for in longer battles. St. Aug is still rebuilding from Katrina so and has some restrictions since they are a Private Catholic School.
Bro these bands better than gram I’m sorry but I ain’t sorry Grambling Should Be Sounding Twice As Good As Karr N St Aug. Maybe Need One Of These Arrangers Over There! It’s Sad To Say SU LSU And Louisiana Tech Sound Way Better Than Gsu! Idk even know If Xavier And Tulane Have A Better Music Music Program But Gsu Got a lot of work to do.
KB u have to pay attention Abe is loud Abe was playing doing kart last song watz nothing wrong with dat song at all dats why when Karr stop playing and da Aug walking away you could still hear Abe playing
All the aug students and alumni can’t come in this comment section nd dik ride and I love it😭😂 yall people know yall lost that battle to karr bru. Once you start realizing your flaws they only improve you
I need all of them to combine for summer band !!!
New Orleans all star would be untouchable
Gamb still gon have more and better tbh
This battle was over at the 27:37 run, listen to the crowd and look at KB’s reaction. Thanks for playing Karr, great job.

Exactly!!!!
man why can’t my school band be this good

@@edwinbatiste7550nobodies bias nga did u not hear the whole battle? St Aug lost
All the votes went to Karr that is CraZzzzzzzzzy 😂😂😂😂😂.... But he went to Karr.. 🤔🤔
@KBThaBandhead but St Aug beat Karr. I was there. They out played them. Karr looked the best marching down the streets though.
Karr better than some colleges I’ve heard this year🤦🏾♂️#karruniversity
I tried to tell niggas!
Naw. frfr
Yea way better than UAPB AAMU MVSU GRAMBLING 😂😂
@@KBThaBandheadI want to see Edar Karr Vs Skyline now that’s a Highschool battle for ya
Well Karr lost this battle I was there at Aug surprised everyone
This made me smile....Katrina really set our band programs back...glad to see them getting back...
Still have a looooong way to go, but yeah.
That first song by karr gave me chills bro
Its a difference in going to mardi gras and being in the parades i miss it
Although with difficulty I enjoyed St. Augustine arrangements the band directors got pens on em. got a little crisco on it as well. Too long though, but I see y’all
Yeah Sir We take our music For Real Facts
Aug with the dub
🤔🤔🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤔
The Aug won. Greatjob Karr
Karr warming up is how jsu warm up everyday at practice.
I read the Karr band director graduated from JSU
@@Akire202 he did. He played tuba. We marched together
Yeah they ready to crank it up 😂
What song is that KARR played at 14:12 ? OmG
I hope you might do one on Landry vs Karr. I liked that battle too

We had a few down years since Covid but we def were like that during the 2010s
True c/o 92
I give st. Aug an A for effort.
That is because we never trouble ourselves with keeping up with the field or par, while everyone else rushed and ran to imitate it. Can’t out do an original.
Could never out march clinton in the 90s . We put it on them twice at southern

Never seen st aug so scared to play toughen up and stop crying on this sht karr was a way better band and im a alumni of carver
St aug songs always been long go look at them before Katrina when hamp was alive they play the songs twice
5-1, Aug
Hell no, Aug had too many issues. Trumpets missing notes nd hiding behind the rest of the band, there were sloppy tonguing at some parts and more
Yoooo st. Aug blew that second song though!! That’s crazy coming from a HS
You missed this one. St. Aug all day.
I love the shirt KB!!!! Ya heard me!!!
Abe was not playing it's lineup of the parade so there were a multitude of bands out there playing plus Southern University was out there that's what you heard the first time
Lemme just say this. We didn’t want to play B.S. because we knew he was going to do that. We knew he would extend it. The song is good, but long
Damn near every live that was out there was saying Aug got with Karr. It wasn’t a clean sleep but Aug Gave them an L. Dude showing his bias 😂
This comment is bias 🤣
SA ain't better than Roots of Music.. accept it!!
That look like Jared warming them up
It is
Ray Aug Band director said let him get his song out the way this first song wasn’t part of battle. So Karr warm up an played song that’s why it’s so long.
Why would they play it if it wasn’t part of the battle!?!! Stop making excuses for that bs
@@YourGoat803 Not excuse because Karr had warm up so Aug BD want get his song in because he was gone let his assistant band director handle Karr battle so he played his song before battle so he could get out the way see u must wasn’t there lol people will tell you Aug first song wasn’t part of battle stop trying give Karr shit they lose this day 😂😂😂
@@cjp84 so if the song sounded good you would say it was part of the battle. Okay chief u got it 😭
@@YourGoat803 Don’t worry about it lol man y’all just want give Aug hell cause they handle business in this battle. Hatin ass people I swear 😂😂😂😂😂
@@YourGoat803 You went to Karr an feel played cause city say Aug beat the suppose to be giant in bands I get it now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm reading the comments, and everyone is saying that St. Aug songs are too long. The difference is they are not playing SU songs like all the other bands.
Karr not playing SU songs they band director went to JSU
That has nothing to do with the lenth of it
Okay, let's say it's a college band arrangement. That makes them different from the rest of the school bands.
St Aug’s motto has always been that they play every note of a song. That’s why their arrangements are longer.
Any band head know Aug won this battle Didn’t attend neither school 💯🧡💚
I bet the same bandheads would say SU beat JSU both times... 😭😭
😂😂what makes you think I would agree to that I think JSU won both times just like st Aug win this battle and I didn’t attend st Aug nor southern lol
@@javarcarver23 😭😭
Aug for w yes sir
Call it good old Mardi gras mayhem 🥲
They really balance sound Great coming from a Sarah T Reed Alumni. Trombone 4life Dekunta
St Aug won
I thought part of LA flooded again this year?
No Sir
That was Baton Rouge in 2016
Aug W.
Aug got it

Karr with a more complete and balanced sound to me.
Just like JSU
Chaloupa!!
Too many bands trying to butt in this battle kinda blew it for the camera… smh
I hope @humanjukebox recruit some of Karr trumpets!!!🎺🎺🎺
This battle was good arrangement goes to st. Aug the power goes to karr
One thing no one talks about is that St. Aug is ALL Boys and the other Bands like Karr has girls in them. The physicality of playing has to be accounted for in longer battles. St. Aug is still rebuilding from Katrina so and has some restrictions since they are a Private Catholic School.
Nobody cares💀 gender don’t matter when it comes down to instruments. Instruments are about breathe, lip muscles, and discipline mentally.
The school is NOT Free open enrollment,which explains why Karr has more students in the band. It looks like the entire school in the band.
I gave the 2 to aug
KB say they sound good ,then next breath oh lord 😂😂😂 AUG sound tired and like some kids dont know the music
First song was long AF!!!
Wassup
That’s 2 more bands that Grambling can’t fk with😑😂
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 the roots of music can probaly get gram
Bro these bands better than gram I’m sorry but I ain’t sorry Grambling Should Be Sounding Twice As Good As Karr N St Aug. Maybe Need One Of These Arrangers Over There! It’s Sad To Say SU LSU And Louisiana Tech Sound Way Better Than Gsu! Idk even know If Xavier And Tulane Have A Better Music Music Program But Gsu Got a lot of work to do.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@deontetyler7469😂😂😂 that’s fact… And I was on trumpet CSL 🎺 in o5 at Gram I left asap
Aug keep the NOLA tradition (glockenspiel) we call it “bells”, but Karr is a beast! I am with the Aug, but KB judged it fair.
The Aug is clean!
Both got odd to slow Starr then up'd the bar on the second
React to Carver and 35
Best battle will be Carver vs Karr.
Fr
His reactions were based on loudness. St Aug showed more musicality.
180 not 360
Comments delulu, Karr is so much cleaner
Aye man if u see this comment can u stop and react to Lucy c Laney high school band we in Georgia
We from NOLA forgive you for saying the name wrong. Just to bad Bell and John Mc don’t march anymore.
Stay out of New Orleans business homie
Yes Sir the rest of the city Marching Band s had differently caught up to the Marching 100😂
KB u have to pay attention Abe is loud Abe was playing doing kart last song watz nothing wrong with dat song at all dats why when Karr stop playing and da Aug walking away you could still hear Abe playing
This dude said lacking btones but you clearly hear the btones in every song 😂 😂 this dude here
Let guess what high school you went too... 🤔
karr sets the standard of greatness.
Delusion is a powerful drug the AUG is and will always be the standard bearer period
St Aug band teacher came from karr
No he didn’t bro you trippin
🧢
All the aug students and alumni can’t come in this comment section nd dik ride and I love it😭😂 yall people know yall lost that battle to karr bru. Once you start realizing your flaws they only improve you

Karr finished that warmup and ran roughshod on them ppl.. SA got the beatdown they asked for
Karr won tha
Too many warm ups 😪
And you see what them warm-ups lead to once they started playing
@@marcuslyons7233 yeah...an L lol
@@stewieproductions4604aug got nastily handled💀💀
Karr out played aug smh T got the band with some much balance
Tuba run at 19:50 fire
