I lived in Ann Arbor from 1974-84 and went to my first Michigan game in September '74. I've been a fan ever since. I've always considered the band to be part of the team. They're definitely one of the very best in the country.
If you ever come to Friendswood Texas I want to hug your necks. I'm watching this while in a rehabilitation center from a fall downstairs. Blessed to be alive and blessed to watch you. Daily gratitude.
I can remember the very first game I went to back in the mid 70's and the band had me mesmerized, my family loved the band so much we would go I think it was every Thursday and watch the band practice and when I became an adult and my children took interest in the marching band I would take them when they were younger I said all of this to say. There is no band like the University of Michigan Marching Band GO BLUE!!!!!!
This was really exciting to watch, and gives you an idea of the effort and dedication of these kids in the Michigan Marching Band. When it really is Game Day and it's showtime at the Big House, these many hours of practice during the summer pay off. GO BLUE!
I stumbled across this video and I love it. Go blue Michigan you are extraordinary all done with discipline and you like it Good luck from Belgium !!!!
im a michigan fan myself but if you like this, check out Michigan state and their bands’ “The Series.” it’s another really fun parade cadence and they do a lotta choreo
This was amazing. The former band director at NCA&TSU aggies attended grad school at Michigan and the cadence they used coming out the band room A&T used to take the field for half time shows over 60 years ago. RIP Professor Walter Carlson
@@texasag6297 Exactly what it says dude. Band kids are high school/college students who are members of their schools band! Another word they used to use when I was in school as 'bandies.' There is kind of a sub culture around band kids. And, I'm afraid, a few stereotypes as well. At least on the high school level.

How y’all March in those “Heavy” Backpacks 🎒 yea I know that it looks like it but in reality it isn’t probably but maybe with those Instruments especially those Huge Heavy Ones. Oof y’all very Brave.
Is there a way these great folks could come to College Station and share halftime with the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band? Who would care about the football game? It would be the most fantastic halftime in history!
@@trinablansitt5150 From a song about Texas A&M... a student takes his girlfriend to the stadium..."But the game don't mean a thing to her -- she's JUST THERE TO SEE THE BAND!" czcams.com/video/OSgTX1Uz1Tk/video.html
Oh...you know I had to raz you. But I have been a life-long band geek, and do not understand how we regularly (in High School) marched parades like The Aqua-Festival and every single football game and marching competition in full gabardine wool uniforms - wool, not poly-wool blends - but bands today wear shorts until October? It was 100 degrees back then too. I don't think we were any tougher than today's kids. I have seen the shows they put on and the work it takes to get those shows down solid.
As someone who was actually IN the marching band in high school (my university did not have one) I agree with you 100%. I'd be right there next to you on that ground today! But to think that 40 years ago I marched at the football games in the November cold with light snow on the ground and marched MILES in every Memorial Day parade in full dress WOOL uniform in the heat and humidity the last week of May and didn't really think anything about it makes me long for my youth. At least THESE guys get to wear shorts and tee shirts. That wasn't allowed back in the old days! LOL
I went to an HBCU Bethune Cookman University our band is known world wide check us out. I actually enjoyed this video the drummers are 🔥🔥🔥. Great job overall
@@RussellHogan 💯💯 nice to meet you My Brother. I enjoyed this lil clip even though it's different from our schools but it sounded good and they are detailed
Да... Готовились, видно, не один месяц. Сколько людей, сколько инструментов, ни - красоты в прохождении, ни, тем более, хоть какой-то приличной музыки. Чего хотели показать - непонятно... Воистину - что американцу - хорошо, то русскому - туфта полная...
Oh my GOD!! What is the purpose of spouting this kind of negativity toward these kids that are doing what they love and making great memories?!?! What are you trying to accomplish? Why can't you just move on to the next video without spewing such hatred??? Just GO AWAY!!
Each and everyone of them should be commended. They are a HUGE part of the sports programs!!! They are amazing!!!

Oklahoma Sooner fan here. Michigan has a great band and a great drum line. Ive watched this more than a few times. Excellent performance.....

So true! Watching them perform on the field and beyond is a performance worth seeing!!
Love the spirit.
I'm from Wisconsin and the Half Time for the Washington/Michigan Game is not to be missed - it is excellent. Take Michigan over Ohio State anyday
@@randallsredman1333 As a friend and Michigan grad tells me, "Buckeyes Boil Babies."
I grew up in Ann Arbor in the 70s.. My hometown.. I miss it. GO BLUE Forever..
Me encanta ya hacía falta ver esto💙💛

I've never been a Michigan fan but I LOVED this! So much fun! Kudos! I've never seen so much choreography in a march-in from a non-HBCU school.

So awesome!
Love that energy!
Love it!
They are great
My brother was in the band his freshman year. Got to go to the 1977 rose bowl. Played the trombone.
That must have been awesome for him!
much respect from wales loved it
Go Big Blue!! Y'all got it going on!!
From Bethune Cookman University!!
The Marching Wildcats!!!!!
As a former Boomer, I can really say I enjoyed watching this. Different from what we do but exciting non the less.
Nice... love the Big Blue!
When not in full uniform, keep the hats and plumes in the band room lol. On another note, that drum cadence was🔥🔥🔥.
It's good to practice with a heavy wind-catcher on your head, to know how it will feel. They also wear them for the Saturday morning rehearsals.
The one trombone player with the glasses is getting it!!!!
Excellent!
God I love band kids! Have 4 myself. Great sound!
I got you beat. I was one MYSELF back when dinosaurs roamed the earth!
BAND GROUPS ARE A GREAT TO CONNECT WITH YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN
@@lindathrall5133 Well, I was in THREE of them and I didn't connect with shit!
The hell is "band kids"?

Yeah just like that
Wow! I've never seen anything like that
👍 Awesome!
Great sound, performance, and entertainment
I was in the U of M drumline from 2008 to 2012!
Is this the Central Campus? It looks like a place I never saw in 2000 when I was in school.Was this a practice field near the stadium?
is this reserve block or something? or don't they do that anymore?
wow!!!!
Go Blue 💙💛💙💛💙💛
Go blue!

2:38. Cadence sound like that destiny child loose my breath.
It is. Destiny's Child sampled it.
Big 10 university band. Very big yay!
Reveille!
Go blue

Omg crying
Cause they’re that bad?
It's great to be a michigan wolverine !!!
Oh to be young- I’d still be stretched out on the ground coming down those stairs! 😳 Go Blue!

2:41 very few fight songs can compare to The Victors!
I WOULD LOVE TO ROLL WITH THE BAND AS THEY PLAY THE FIGHT SONG I WOULD MOVE TO THE FIGHT SONG
do drummers get tired ?
You get used to it. 😎
100%, but for me playing is a good distraction from being tired, but the more time you spend with a drum on the easier it gets
Dude! You should see their step shows!!! Talk about stamina!!
@@trinablansitt5150 you have access to a video of it ?

HBCU bands are just AWESOME 👌🏾 They can't be matched. Others just look like high school bands.
@@ikehayes yes indeed!!!
Reminds me of basic training.
Wow - no wool uniforms! That's all the high school and college bands had back in mid 70s.
Muy buena cordinacion y todo pero... Por que parecen militares. ¿Es una universidad militar?
Best band in the land💛💙
No it’s not
Se parece a la hinchada de boca junior
Hail hail 6-0 rn
Tell about school spirit and lately the US of a
Like in rsf
What do college students, weird gymnastics shows and military uniforms have to do with each other.
this, apparently
can you not focus on one section thx
Who ever was filming needs to stop shaking the camera. Got car sick watching
Everyone in the band is under 18
Huh? What do you mean? My son is nearly 19 and he's a freshman.
@@trinablansitt5150 they just look really young that’s all.
@@trinablansitt5150 love it
Nice video. Band needs to learn to to step off together.
August 25. This is why bands rehearse.
This is the first practice for parade marching and Revelli Exit. This is what learning to step off together looks like.
This was the first time they did revelli exit last yr, lol it was a practice. This is what learning to be in step looks like
Very few girls use brass... They don't like to blow like the boys.

GREAT BAND. 👍
CANT SAY THE SAME ABOUT THE VIDEOER. IN-- OUT--- SHAKING
🤪 👎
Cockroach stompers
When Revelli (aka "the chief") and Cavender led The Michigan Marching Band, this lack of precision would have never been tolerated, even in practice.
Oh my GOD!! What is the purpose of spouting this kind of negativity toward these kids that are doing what they love and making great memories?!?! What are you trying to accomplish? Why can't you just move on to the next video without spewing such hatred??? Just GO AWAY!!
I agree with jack. Maybe they should take some pointers on precision from OSUMB!
