Magic City Classic • Alabama State University ASU Stingettes and MMH Marching Band Birmingham, AL October 28, 2023 @ShowtimeWeb TikTok | Instagram | Facebook
I'm a 50 year old man. Who watches content like this all the time. I just can't get enough of all this. The music, the showmanship, the dedication to the tradition. Is just beautiful to be able to see and listen and appreciate. All the time these wonderful young people put into it. It's just a beautiful thing. Thank you for sharing this with us all. You just don't see this from where I'm from.
@@nathanstrickland6508 I’m only 43, but I’m completely the same. I’m just amazed with how many different marching band styles there are. Or how it’s possible to look cool while wearing a cape and a 3’ tall hat. :)
stingettes , honey beez and the flag girls have had very nice uniforms all season !!! the drum majors look good in white !!! the drum major coordinator that suit is niceeeee ,mrs. d looks goooood , everybody look good lol
Love that we finally get to see the beat of the band aka the drum /percussion. Usually most of the videos get taken up by views of the dancers... This is a nice break!
The Alabama State University Mighty Marching Hornets are a force to be reckoned with! Their technical prowess is unmatched, their musicality is breathtaking, and their leadership skills are inspiring. They command the attention of the crowd and lead the band with precision and passion, always delivering an unforgettable performance.
That entrance was god awful and a disgrace to everyone who ever marched in the band. Coming into the MCC is where u make your statement “WERE HERE “. That was a high school entrance. All Mighty Marching Hornets 🐝 should be embarrassed and ashamed. No Watergate, No Funky 4???? Really????
@@kendrawilliams9598 they sound like a traditional HBCU band with a flair of a good drum and bugle corp...the rhythm is very upbeat throughout the entire cadence, I love especially love that
Best MCC walk-in uniform since 2017. This is it Stingettes! And one thing about it, Ms. Williams gon give the girls legs and hips and BAWDY. Yes ma’am!!
In my opinion, best walk in uniform since 2019. That 2019 uni was iconic. This uniform is in that league. The uniforms this year have really been on point. 💯💥🔥
Real musicians. Real instruments so impressively soulful, talented, and synced . Ladies, jazz like smooooooth moves. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 to all the dedicated students who bring their excellence to the tradition 🫡
Thank you for this video! So much hard work goes into the whole show. I love the dedication of the whole team. Wow! I live in NH. I don’t think we have anything like this in NH. I am a Meemee from NH! Super excited to see this video. Thank you. I would like to help support the students. Is there a PO Box that I can send a donation? Keep up your artistic gifts! Meemee from NH❤

As a former HBCU Band member. I have to give Justin his flowers for his beautiful 90 degree to high step with a slight point to the toes. ❤❤❤❤
I noticed that. Such precision in every step
@@NellyDee318 wanna know smth he still go to JD and help the new kids on drum major
@@NellyDee318 it meant he did and did practice again and again to be like this.😊😊
he made a mistake with the hand position coming through the gate and after he got to the field with turning around.
@Fanof4kzryThat's really nice of Justin. What great encouragement & motivation that must be for the new kids! Kudos to Justin.
Awesome band. Been watching the Vanilla Funk (Justin Heideman) for a while. Great showmanship from everyone!!
They can either join us or get left 😂
I started watching them bc of Justin also. But I've grown to love the band as a whole the more I watch them.

you're exactly right from a West Coast bandsman in the 1980s.

Slick stick replacement toss by the quad players.
Poor Justin got hit in the head at 3:44. He kept it moving 🐝💛🖤
He sharp!! I love it!!
Yea he did, and kept it professional. Can't do that turn in tight spaces without making a lil adjustment to it.
This style seems like a waste of his artistic talents.
Great video!❤
Such pretty smiles from the Stingettes
All them extra ppl need to move out the way. Let them march through
That part! Like get da hell out the way! One of the DMs literally was squeezing/pushing his way through which is crazy!
Agreed!!
