I hope they get to bring the Sound Machine so all in attendance can see this band perform. Whose decison is it to allow the visitors to bring their band?

If NCCU wants to bring their band then I fully expect them to be there. And just having an HBCU band would help draw a better gate.

yeah it will be. I had hoped that NSU would bring their band the first year I was in marching band. (I got a chance to watch the Marching Legion when I went to LU vs NSU in 2005)

I think it would too. Their band is very good and everything they do is done with class. NCCU also has a good football team too which makes for a good game.

In my years at LU I have never seen an opposing band perform in Williams Stadium. I would love to get that chance in 08

Frankly I am surprised VMI hasn't brought their band. Otherwise most of our home opponents lately really haven't been in a position to justif the expenses of the trip except for perhaps W&M.
If NCCU brings their band we could sell tickets to Lynchburgers who would normally never come up to the mountain for anything.

I hope you get to see the Sound Machine and how they perform. We have family at NCCU and attend games there often.

VMI actually did bring their pep band for the game this past season. They actually sounded pretty good.

The problem is finding somehwere to put them... We are only getting more popular and more and more people are coming to games we dont have a whole section to give to a band.
