No seriously. I should've videoed 2000 students silently doing that. They're not going to bring back neck.

From what I've been told, the Tubas have decided to stop doing "Earthquake" before it gets banned so they can bring it back for big games.

TGFTL full band is making the trip to Auburn
I suppose that means that they aren't going to Florida which is by far the bigger road game. Why do they never come to the Florida game?

They can't ban everything. It's going to get to that point. Administration is going to have to take a different stance; what happens when vulgar lyrics are added to Pregame? Take away the entire band? TV should stop mic'ing up the student section. Problem solved.

We're going Florida, just not the full band. We take 110 to all of the other away games.

Full band went to Florida in 2004 (The Joseph Addai Game as I remember it). The reason they probably don't make that trip regularly is that it's more expensive to bring 7 busses full of students to Gainesville then Auburn. Greater distance typically equals more time which tends to increase costs.

Typically we rotate between Auburn and Ole Miss. The last 3 years have been an exception because of the opening season games and 2009 where we couldn't afford a full band trip after sending a pep band to Washington.

It's also a matter of the band takes up what would be student tickets, so we have to go where there is a big enough block of student tickets for all of us to fit.

And yes it is cheaper to make the shorter trips to Auburn then it is to Florida.

Can the student section add the Neck lyrics to some of the crappy half time shows? I would like to see some of them banned.

That's what I was talking about. Why can't we for once take the full band to Gainesville? In the 23 years I've lived here they've not done it no matter how big the game is. Why waste the trip on Auburn? As I recall the full band didn't even go to Alabama last year.

:edit: gar90: Just read your post. Thanks, but that still sucks in my opinion.

Honestly, so tired of the freaking band shite. The fact that Tiger Rag was banned still pisses me off. Other schools play it, but it was banned here. Just go with 100% piped in music and be done with it.

I stand corrected. I was at that game but don't remember that being the full band. I guess its because I was on the opposite side of the stadium way up in the nose bleed section so it was hard to tell. Did they march at halftime?
