Telling my age but I remember when BET did.
be thankful you have youtube, back in my day we had that one grainy band tape in band class to watch or we had to wait for the one game they showed on BET or the Bayou Classic to see them.
@@flora936 Yep yep
Ok Jackson State, I'm from Louisiana so you know it's Grambling first, Southern second...but Dang, ya'll rocked dat for real! Your sound and precision drills were amazing! Dancing girls were smooth and beautiful as silk on a sunny day!😉 But, that intro though.....damn that was lit as hell!!! Vegas wasn't ready for ya'll at all! Great performance JSU! You guys did the south props!
Nothing like HBCU goodness!! ❤
Wow, I didn't know that they had gone out to UNLV and cut a fool like that.... And gave them a taste of almost every "JSU" tradition. I've said it once, I'll continue to say it, there are many fantastic HBCU bands, but there will NEVER be but ONE "Sonic Boom"💥....
This band is amazing! Been watching this over and over
Ppl got to understand... Being in the band from the south was special... From elementary, high school to college... Our band directors presented us the music/songs for the show.. we rehearsed/memorized each n every song.. didn't need no music sheets... Long rehearsals and late evening halftime show practices.. formations, dances n etc... But when it was "showtime" it was well worth it to see and hear the applauds n adulation from the crowd... Memories i will always cherish...
Solid first performance. Sounded like people were singing along. That's really all I hoped for, that they would showcase what the BOOM and JSU are, but also do something familiar or that the people at UNLV can relate to.
JSU has always been one of my favorite bands. They always show love to whatever city/state or school they are visiting!!!! Love you guys!!!! One band one Sound!!! 🎼🎵🎷📯🥁 🥁💯💯
What a great show. Las Vegas had no idea what JSU was bringing to town. Class Act!!
verbvideo no they didn’t
@@SuperImmunologist lol yup... I live in Vegas, and I was mad and heated that I wasn't able to go! 😒 Lol
Absolutely!
Great show
I was at the game.
I'm South African and Beyonce's Homecoming Documentary brought me here & I've been obsessed ever since ♥😊
Blesset Be Beyonce
I didn't need no semi-talented Beyonce for me to already know about and appreciate Black marching bands. ;-)
@@yippee2000 Thank you❤❤I'm so happy someone else said the same thing I've been saying. Beyonce is a rip off. All of her moves her routine she stole from HCBU Jackson State drill team J setts. She should have been made to pay the schools or she should have at least donated to their programs. People talking about we should have been happy she included HCBU in her show Well nawl her ass should pay her dues.
@@ms.r.w.3404 how do you know she didn’t? She makes her moves in silence, she doesn’t have to boast about it to the world if it’s from the heart
@@jaonnim5220 when you know you know🤷🏾♀️
ALL UP IN VEGAS CLOWNIN!!!! #SONICBOOM!!! #SUPPORTHBCU
Again, i must say it was good to have the Boom out here in Vegas. It made my night to be around SWAC band action. I was missing my dear old college home. It was so good to see everyone who was was in the boom while I was working with yal. 2005-08. Please come again. Yal did an awsome job. Continue to listen to Mr. Little he is a great person and know what he talking about. I am proud to have worked with him when he was a drum major. Luv da boom!!
Definitely, Super Bowl Worthy Performance !!!🔥👊🏽😻 The Late Dr. Jimmy James ( Music Director Of JSU ) is Smiling From Heaven ..,
Y’all just showing out I’m amazed at the precise methods
Excellent job JCU, my favorite HBCU band with the baddest drum majors in the land! I'm obsessed!!!!
I just picked my jaw up from the floor. That was marvelous!
This HBCU BAND IS AWESOME!!!
OMG....Oh how I miss JSU....Alumnus Class of 91......so proud! Y'all represented!!!!
I’m a big fan of the boom and I’ve watched documentaries about the boom’s rich history. I’m just curious. But did you go to Hollywood with the boom in 1990 ?
There is so much passion being expressed from these band members. They are in alignment and are expressing their love and beautiful abitilies for music.
The Tiger Run On and the OSU Ramp Entrance are the two best band entrances period!! That run on is so unbelievably tight it’s ridiculous. Love the DM choreography before ushering in the entrance of the band. This shit NEVER gets old and is always well executed. Exceptional job as always JSU.
The Michigan entrance and Morris brown (rip) can't be slept on either
MAGNIFICENT. Best halftime show I have ever seen.
AMAZING footage +JSU Bands. JSU did an awesome job representing all HBCU bands. I'm just now realizing the percussion section drilled the field as well. I wish they continue to do so. The drill was precise, and I saw no flaws in it. I loved how the crowd joined in during the drill. The Jsettes were beautiful, and they slayed the field as expected. Awesome season opener JSU.
That's a great shout out you just gave, especially when your critiques don't come lightly lol.
Levester Phillips Yea I have to give credit due regardless of rivalry.
What can anyone say but RESPECT? Sonic Boom is a helluva band! Love it! Thanks for posting!
Being in a band at an HBCU makes one more popular than being on G’s football 🏈 or basketball 🏀 team. They work hard, and it shows.
J-Settes routine was clean precise and on fire!
Perfect place for them...from the field to a strip shoe on the strip. They know how to bump and grind and body stroke. Dance ? Not so much.
Stellar performance
ALL I CAN SAY IS AWESOME!!!!!
best show in Vegas that night!
Great performance with excellent choreography
That white boy smile though at the end! #priceless
FABULOUS, JUST FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great half-time Leggette, JSU Assistant Band Director 2015-2018
HBCU's Bands are The Bomb!
Ok, I'm sorry but that intro is just down right BAD ASS! I can't get enough of that! Check out the Drum Majors hands.....it's as if they are commander the bands movements.....but that's what Drum Majors do isn't it!😁 But at this pace it's simply dope!
Very well done article in the Jan/Feb 2017 issue of "Smithsonian" magazine about the Jackson State University Sonic Boom!,
that's what brought me here!
Now THATS how ya enter a room and let it be known...we've ARRIVED! Love the ENERGY...love the Gwen Stefani. EXCELLENT!
This is what's missing on TV halftime shows. GREAT PERFORMANCE boys and girls, you smacked it, fantastic coordination! Shows dedication
And THAT’s how it’s done - BOOM💥! So much respect and appreciation, for JSU learning a new segment to their already intricate and physically demanding routine, to spell out ‘Las Vegas’ and ‘UNV’. First Class! 👏🏼👍🏼
The Boom showed up and showed out!! Thanks for posting.
my favorite brand of the South!!!
I'm frm Cali they dnt kno bout the sonic boom I kno LV was amassed when they seen yal play I just know they won't never forget that nite lol I wish all the hbcu bands could perform in the west coast cuz they don't know what they are missing all they know in the movie drumline😂😂 but yea good job yal #MyAsu🐝💛
If JSU made it to Vegas then sooner or later somebody from the Pac 12 will invite an HBCU (probably SWAC not MEAC) I can see SC, UCLA, Cal, Arizona, or Zona St. doing that.
They think the bands on drum line is jaw dropping..no one in either movies are on the SWAC level
Props from the Purple and Gold PVAMU 💜💛
Great job JSU the crowd was feeling that!
Aint nothin like a marching band from the South to show yall how its done. Bravo JSU
Coming from someone who goes to UNLV!
Great show! This is only the beginning and I can't wait to see what's in store.
Good job Boom!!!
JSU are amazing. I absolutely love them.
Pledge " We Pledge to serve as ambassadors of good will at Jackson State University. Presenting ourselves as a showcase of Musical Excellence, Elegance, Espirit De Corps, and Dignity........... LOVE THE BOOM!!! To this day, that is still Branded into my soul just like my Sigma, K.K.Psi, and Sinfonian Brands cover my arms, legs, and chest!!! W.T. Crab of 95 I marched over 20 yrs ago and still remember the Pledge, and how much it meant to me, because you always remember what's important to you.
I'm just an older white Mama, but I marched in 2 different university bands, Such HUGE respect for the HBCU groups that work their hearts out, rep their communities and further the importance of respect for ALL people, especially our fellow country men and women. I HOPE to be so privileged to see a live performance one day,
They did an amazing job. #LuvDaBoom
This is outstanding entertainment!
No its Jackson State's "Sonic Boom of the South" in Jackson Mississippi
This was mad dope son!
Just beautiful👍🏽👍🏽
They are so good. I missed the classic this year because of Covid.
Absolutely amazing!
HBCUS ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!
