I love these old band film reels because I am to young to have seen bands like this in real life but to see great historic marching is incredible!
This was before 1962, I believe. I was in the band in '62 and, that year, we got new uniforms.
@ 8:13 he came out twirrrling!! 😯 that was pretty badass! 👏😁💂♂️
WIlliam Revelli was a guest professor at a college where I was starting
work on my master's degree in music back in 1986 or 87. He taught
two classes and I learned so much under his teaching. He also directed
the concert band and man was he ever intimidating. What a musician!
I will never forget that summer. They broke the mold when Revelli was made.
Based on announcer's comment (5:36) the the band was celebrating the 104th anniversary of Sousa's birth, That makes this film date 1958 not early 1960's
November 8, 1958 based on the comments by the announcer.
Mike B. And a 48 star flag
Your deduction is sound. 1958 matches Sousa's 104th birthday. This was a Michigan home game against Illinois and the Drum Major was Gary Kocher. The only date that fits all those parameters is Nov. 8, 1958. Spot on.
The year is 1958. In the narrative it states that 11-6 is the104th anniversary of the birth of John Philip Sousa. 11-6-1854 - 3-6-1932. If my math is correct that would make it 1958.
Oh my, how things progress, especially the size of the crowd. GO BLUE
I feel like the colorguard has changed the MOST, just WOW. Also, what is that I hear? Flutes? Can't be!
That’s a 48 star flag. Had to be before 1959.
Thier uniforms look like osumb uniforms with capes lol
That’s exactly what it is
M Fanfare at 3:56 never sounded better. Wow!
Celebrating the 104th birthday of JPS would make this 1958, with this game most likely played against #2 Iowa on Nov. 1st. The Hawkeyes beat the Wolverines 37-14. Michigan ended the '58 season 2-6-1, Benny Oosterbaan's last year as head coach.
The 100 Mighty Marching Men of Michigan , i remember hearing them called by this name
Nice! I feel out of breath just watching the band get on the field.
The marching is no longer as precise as it was under Revelli, especially the extremely demanding fast high-stepping entrance from the tunnel.
precise but couldnt learn the music???? lyres on the field...really? but then again they probably still have music on the field
@@DevaJones03 no music is allowed on the field these days.
Are those chest tenors at 14:32 I see? Or am I tripping?
Holy shit!!
3:26 The victors
Women were not permitted to be in the band, nor to be cheerleaders.
We do better when we know better, thankfully
Another reason the Band is even better now is all those talented young woman, my daughter being one.
It's O.K. Those were the times.
@@sheneedsme In your dreams. How many steps per minute can they do?
@@ednorton47 Just as many as the men. Women in the Marines now do the exact same basic training at the same place as the men so I’m pretty sure they can keep up with the boys in Marching Band.
All male. Just saying . . . . . .
So was Ohio State until recently. OSU originated as military band.
Big 10 bands were associated with ROTC?? My sophomore year was the first year women were permitted to join (1972). It was last minute so there were less than 10. They were excellent, no one knew the difference.
1958 a whole different world culture society.
