My first day on the A&M campus, I ended up at Kyle Field watching the FTAB practice. Amazing introduction to my time in College Station.

class of '56. still a thrill watching. Two "hymns" I get chills. Marine Hymn and Aggie Fight song. Semper Fi to all my brothers in arms. Beat tu.

if every game was won or loss by the quality of the band The Aggies would always be undefeated !

Hands down, the Best College Marching Band Period!!!!

I have been watching them now for over 60 years, ever since I entered A&M as a fish in 1961 (was in the Corps for my full 4 years) and am still amazed and never tire of watching them. There is one movement they only do once a year and that is at the final home game of the season. The movement is the four way cross. Find the video and try and figure out how they do that. The computer programs for marching bands gives an error message when they tried to use it to plot that out - there are times that two band members are occupying the same space - actually stepping between the legs of another band member.

The Texas A&M Aggie Band is Second to NONE. Go Texas A&M Aggie Band! WHOOOOP!!!!

Their maneuvers are always so intricate and solid ! Awesome job Whoo 👍🏼🥰

NOBODY DOES IT BETTER! Fightin Texas Aggie Band at its best...Always wins the halftime. Too bad the networks never show the halftime...

Sorry, Tim, but Ohio State is the best marching unit I've ever seen. I'm a four year vet of the Marching Razorbacks. I enjoy seeing the Ags because they carry on old school 6 to 5 military marching. But it has too many simple countermarch and blockbuster moves to entertain over and over. I do like the marching at the oblique, which you never see anymore. And the Ags were never as repetitious as the Longhorn Band. Most college bands today imitate drum corps styles floating out on the field, marching a little here and there because they're too large to move much and doing mostly park and bark. I may be wrong, but didn't the Ags used to take the block T and drop off a second or phantom block T and then bring them back together?

It's because historically the band writes their drills so that they take the maximum amount of time allotted, and don't leave any time for a slow march off, so everyone has to book it off the field as fast as they can.

Slender Ginger Blah blah blah - Calm down, precious. My comments did not belittle the efforts of the band members or the work they put into the music or marching. I simply stated that it's the same thing, always. That's why it is boring. So, responding with "You get out there..." is pretty much an off-the-mark attack on me personally, and I did not attack anyone - just gave an opinion, countering others that are claiming this is the "best band in college" or the "best band in America." Bull. I am more entertained by a marching band that puts on a half time show of their talents that is different each game, or each year, than close quarters marching that never changes. And music that never changes. Check out the Ohio State marching band where they simulate Frankenstein walking, the drummer, the pinball machine, and the guitar player. That is not boring.
