I was born and raised in Baton Rouge Louisiana down the street from Southern University. When I got old enough I used to watch SU Marching Band practice every night and see them perform halftime at the games. After seeing this show, I can honestly say that I would have been as proud and excited to live down the street from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and watch the "Blue and Gold Marching Machine" practice and perform. You all are amazing!!!!
I attended this game and sat on the visitor's side. To be honest with you, at the time I didn't really like this show. But once I had a chance to watch it on RUclips from the "home" side, I fell in love with it. The music arrangements are fantastic! Thomas Jones, the music arranger for the band did a great job with these songs. And the A&T Marching Band musicians were out of this world. They have a very unique sound and can blow you out of the front rows in the stands. Great show!
We are always our worst critics but looking at this show from a overall concept ..i love the way A&T pulled this off....this is diversity....combining corps style and traditional at the same damn time.. i give them props on this
Spartan here green and gold till I die; but A&T I really enjoyed that show; it gave me everything I wanted and needed even without a dance routine.....congrats.
A & T I'm a diehard Aristocrat but I must say, you are impressive. I think you all have a sound quality that is desirable to all HBCUs. I don't know if you have a new band director this year but this hybrid chore and marching style is inovative and fresh. You may have just started the Next-Big-Thing for all HBCUs. God Bless all of you for taking that bold out-of-the-box thinking approach. Your sound is balanced and beautiful! Don't turn back, keep moving forward. You are awesome!
The band sounds good and the ladies are doing there thing much Luv & Respect to the whole program for bringing us all great music and entertainment Salute...
Enjoyed watching the show live, y'all did a great job. Got some good pics with both Dance Squads after the pre - parade performance. Thanks For Coming down !!!
Some people are speaking ill of Golden Delight...It's just like a football or basketball team when the team is full of seniors who graduate. Let's support these ladies for all of their hard work and watch them grow as we continue to encourage them. Aggie Pride '99
It was kind of different seeing A&T not do a dance routine or have a drum line feature in their show cause they are notorious for Cold Steel doing tricks and a full blown dance routine where they get down with the get down on the field but it was a good look for them. They just showed us that they can have a nice clean show and I applaud them for that. Loved the whole show especially when they fused "Someone like you", "Rumor has it", and "Set fire to the rain". Awesome Show. Big ups A&T.
I am glad you love GD. And thank you. Rest assured, one performance does not a "fall off" make. :) Trying new things is risky and many are unwilling to do so. However, we will continue to push those limits. We are confident that real fans, friends and Aggies will be excited when we are great and when we are growing. No worries about GD this season. See you next week!
This performance is proof that HBCU bands can produce a quality sound and exemplify true musicianship. "Rumour has it" that HBCU bands don't care about how they sound, just as long as they play loud. But I know better.... Good job guys!
Yes, that I know. That's why I said I hope it's just the first game b/c you know how the first time is & after that things get better. So I'm waiting to see future performances to give a full judgement.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not one for making excuses BUT to GD's credit, this is a squad that's almost COMPLETELY new. The polished squads of recent yrs have been composed of seasoned veterans who had a working knowledge of each other's abilities and an established chemistry. Give these young ladies a little time. They'll be just fine.
Speaking on my GD "slightly falling off" comment, I didn't mean it in a way of that they'll never be as good as they were in previous years. I just was speaking in terms of this particular peformance. I think if they had an arrangement like the one they did last season to Beyonce's End of Time then it would've made for a better performance b/c this was the perfect Adele song for them to dance to, tempo and all. No matter what, GD is always going to be the Best Dance Auxillary in HBCU history!!!
Sorry but I didn't mean falling off as in there's no way of coming back to greatness, just saying this particular performance. No matter how rough a GD performance may look, there's no dance squad out there that does the things that GD does & to make it look soo easy at the same time is just pure talent. But yes, I'm just waiting for next week to see something a little better & wish GD & the BGMM a great season!!
As much as I love them, it saddens me to say that Golden Delight slightly fell off:( They kinda looked all over the place. Hopefully it's just b/c it was the first performance & that they'll be much better performances to come.
Ok BGMM what is up with all the empty spaces in your formation? yall suppose to be one of the legendary bands for HBCU's yahll can't be missing that many people, but the show was good though!
Why are there 57 Golden Delights? Way too many girls and they were very RUSTY and OFF. I can tell this is a new squad, not as crisp as the old veteran squads that I watched during theold I-40 classic games. Yes for the Adele music though!!! Loved it.

Wow, can't believe I'm about to say this, but great sound A&T. Coming from an SCSU Marching 101 Alum. F'96-F'98
I dont know if its the camera or not but NCAT has a certain sound that no other band has and thats way i love A&T. I love their sound.
I love this performance I hope to see them at the Macy's parade
great sound- and even smooth at certain points

Good job guys!
Omg I want to be on this band when I graduate 2 more years and I'm on my way
If I had to go to an Agricultural and Technical school... i would want to go to North Carolina AnT State University
VERY GOOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job BGMM. Golden Delight needs a little work. Expecting more this season
great video, too.
Great 1st show! Looking forward to continued growth throughout the season.I loved the horn flash @ 2:35. Details do make a difference. BGMM 84-87
Amazinggg
I agree. This was the perfect song for GD to dance to. But this one performance does not break them. I'm sure they will slay the rest of the season!
DAMN good Performance!!
Yes, that I know. That's why I said I hope it's just the first game b/c you know how the first time is & after that things get better. So I'm waiting to see future performances to give a full judgement.
Good Show #BGMM & Golden Delights

I don't think I have ever heard NCA&T sound this good.They have always been straight but never like this. Is the footage tampered with? LOL.
it was because CCU only gave us about 6mins.
sweet!!!
Ok we understand! Only great things to come. Thanks. :)
Rolling In The Deep
rolling in the deep!!!
I won't post any names, but I see some familiar faces. It also looks like they're spinning fire at 5:35. Cool effect!
Whoa....Dope. Aggie Pride!
Не Олимпиада -80...
Однако, это очень достойно. Именно за такие моменты жизни я уважаю американцев!
Молодцы!

Shoooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!! Formidável!! Esplêndido!!!
Sounds good aggies.
Buenisima
OMG
Oh ny godnesssss😍❤️
As much as I love them, it saddens me to say that Golden Delight slightly fell off:(
They kinda looked all over the place. Hopefully it's just b/c it was the first performance & that they'll be much better performances to come.
Wait a minute what happened to the Aggie Lean?
Cool
hold up why this school marching like this? if you know where I'm coming from....
Probably preference by the director. Nothing wrong with marching corps style in an hbcu, the show was flawless.
it's called high step marching. HBCU COLLEGES DO THAT
ESTUBO GENIAL
I like my blue and gold with Southern university but they did good
BEAST in doe that whtat im talk bout go head wih ya bad self
They was together in someonr like you they sounded like 50 people
legal muito bom
I love the Blue and Gold Marching Machine but no more tributes to Adele please!
it was only because we had a 6 minute show. "half a show"
Es Un asdfghjkl Que Hermoso Show De Adele! ♥ (Y)
Aggie born, Aggie bread, when I die I'll be Aggie dead! Go Aggies!
the enjoy SCSU's music
The dancers have to spin flag, dance, and twirl oh no, that is too much.. they damn good, for learning all that.. wow !!!
Ok BGMM what is up with all the empty spaces in your formation? yall suppose to be one of the legendary bands for HBCU's yahll can't be missing that many people, but the show was good though!
Do i hear compression editing?
Was I the only one singing Tre melvin’s lyrics ?
The perfect woman on the world :3 i lov her!!
Wow, this is GREAT - shared it on our fan page! If you love Adele like we do, please come join us on facebook, all are welcome! ♥
