I am a Texas Southern Alumnus and Norfolk State University performance was off the charts. Their field and stadium show was a real treat. I am glad they made the long trip and hope they continue to represent in H-Town!
Thank you for the love💚🏆💛
SO GLAD I'M A. SPARTAN.WE ROCK.😊
Let's gooood Spartanssssss!! That was so well done! #Beholdthegreen&gold
Ocean of Soul is my favorite SWAC band got Swag and bag with a book. That damn knocking pictures off the go hard
That Silkettes and Spartan Guards Feature is HALL OF FAME! They showcased that flag the way that a flag should be seen! Look at how on the bridge the Silkettes bowed their head and let the Spartan Guards carry the Bridge of the Song! 🥹
By Virginia golden shore, theirs a place that we adore. I am definitely a former member and a proud Alum keep pushing Legion 👏👏👏😀
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!!!!!!! 😢😢😢 THEY'RE SO BEAUTIFUL 😭😭😭😭. I MARCHED FOR HENRICO HIGH SCHOOL 2006- 2010 At one point they was calling us Lil NSU. NSU has always been the Gold Standard for HBCU Bands. Southern Bands will never admit it though and I NEVER EVER HEARD ANY BAND PLAY 50 CENT MANY MEN. THAT WAS A PERFECT EXIT. NOBODY CAN TOUCH VA BANDS PERIOD
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣yes saaaaa I feel and said the same Thang my brother good gracious almighty GOD great day in the morning!!! I got mad respect for that "Green n Gold! And I'm not being bias when I say that because I was in the Ocean of Soul marching band b4 I transferred to the Marching 100 and I never knew Norfolk was bringing it like this, my goodness, I'm a fan now💯✊🏾 and I didn't know you mentioned Southern in your response but neither Southern or Jackson State can stand toe to toe with Norfolk because they don't play with clarity, I can't recognize their songs they just blow loud. But Norfolk arrangements you knew what they were playing and then they have the SOUND TO back it up oweeeeeee💥
I am proud to have been a member of the Norfolk State University Spartan Band 1961 - 1965. The Chief ( Mr. Emery Fears ) must be looking down from heaven and saying " Behold the Green and Gold " the band is in good hands and the pursuit of perfection is still driving the Spartans to the pinnacle of excellence. WOW what a performance !!!!
Bless you Elder; I can only imagine the wealth of NSU knowledge and history you have 🙌🏿🙏🏿✊🏿
This show was amazing. Hearing that true and unique Legion sound never gets old. Someone said it was a show that the alumni would be proud of. Proud is an understantment in my eyes. Congrats on another great showing in Houston. Can't wait to see what the season holds for these great young men and women. Mr. Beathea, Ms. Sanders, and staff, great job and I wish you continued success. Let The Heavens Resound... BEHOLD 💚 💛
AWESOME Job Legion! As usual great show your hard work paid off on the field and stands. Have been following since 2007 best sound in the MEAC and to me all around. Need Hot Ice to step it up a bit. Skillets and Spartan Gaurd on point and one of the best shows ever! To those that think a band moving all over the field makes a better band think again.
I’m so proud of y’all. The band sounds awesome and looks great.
Great camera work as well.
Beware. Be Scared. BEHOLD✊🏽
They sound damn goodt to me. That Karyn White superwoman and I could have stood for a little more of that Missy!!! 🔥! Great job to all!!!
I jus love this band. So balanced and very disciplined in my eyes. Very powerful sound.
Trumpets at 3:39! Whew!!!
If aliens were to drop down today and ask what is an HBCU band, this is the first thing im showing them
Why? 😂

Good job Legion! You all look and sound amazing. Loved how the Silkettes and Spartan Guards were featured together. And Superwoman was super. BEHOLD! The 2023 season off to a great start.

Thank you for the support
I’m a trumpet player. I’m impressed. In August the are performing and sounding like it’s thanksgiving. I love these guys and Southern and Florida A&M. Trombones sing. Trumpets punch and tubas sound like a bass guitar and the arranger is a bad ass
Agreed!
I saw the Legion practicing this drill song the first week of August during band kamp. I heard all of that aggression and klarity. I knew they were going to be ready for Houston.
Look at my Legion out there Legioning AGAIN!!! 💚💛💚💛💚💛
Speechless. Incredible performance. Hats off to the staff and students. Keep doing what you’re doing. I’m incredibly proud. BEHOLD! 💚💛
That was a great show!
Mdfs back on the dynasty’s 🫡
Simply the best of the best 👌 NSU
the musicians change… so does the music…but The STANDARD DOES NOT!!! 🔰 #BEHOLD #NoneHigher
Tell it on the mountain top!!
Perfection!! Non-negotiable!! Great job Spartan Legion!!! BEHOLD 💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛
NOW, here's a band that will push musical excellence to the limit & make all other college bands step up their performance level regardless of marching band styles (MEAC, SWAC, DCI, PWU's (predominantly white universities))! Norfolk St. Spartan Legion & that prolific Million Dollar Funk Squad Drumline!

Real good job NSU! Super woman was fantastic especially with the audience singing.
Omg 😱 I am always proud when I see Spartan Legion. These guys are not to be played with. Period!!!! Behold!!!! 💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛
Was there live. Absolutely amazing
I rarely comment on any videos. NSU never misses 💪🏾
Y'all KILLED IT.
Listen! It’s Hail Wildcats all day but baybay! Behold the Green and $!#* Gold! Y’all shutdown Houston last night. The video cannot capture what happened last night! 100s across the board!
NSU shut it down, I am so proud of the Spartan Legion #BeholdTheGreenAndGold 🔰💚💛
so proud to say that my brother did his thangggg at battle of the bands!! he’s a tuba player
Frickin Amazing. Proud Alumni
Let's go!!!!!!!
Man, this was truly amazing 💯💯💯💯💯✊🏾🥹💚💛
NSU Band is a recognized force to be reckoned with. Comfortably ranked among the highest quality of HBCU Show Bands, etc.
The fact you incorporate Earth, Wind and Fire in every show is top notch to me. That Karen White was hitting too....ill put NSU against any band.
They sound great
Always amazing the best 👍
You continue to make us so PROUD Spartan Legion!! 🔰
So mad I didn't go to this shit 😤
The Spartan Legion is the BADDEST BAND IN THE LAND!!!! 😀👍
Proud Alumni!!!! Behold 🔰🔰💚💛
Yassssss! BEHHHHHHOOOOLLLLLDDDD!
They had the overall best show hands down.
1.Very good field show.
2.Loved the silkettes feature
3.Love see the spartan guard actually spinning more.
4. Musicality was suburb
5. Musical selections
Only thing i thought that brought the ahow down was Hot Ice.
Excellent job legion! You guys had the top show of the night and improved on your already great performance from last year!
SUPER AWESOME WOW
Unmatched
Behold! 🔰
Wow! I enjoyed listening this❤ Very clean crisp sound. Good shine on everybody shoes! Just crispy what can I say. 😂I like to see a band pick of their feet! I loved to see the flags move together as a unit. Good job everyone!❤❤
Good job, NSU! 😎
Great showing Spartan Legion. I was glad they threw that Missy in there. If they did the 'Grindin' beat that would have been super dope. Overall the best show from top to bottom
Let's go Legion!! Loving how the Silkettes and Guards are complimenting each other more and more!
Congratulations!!! Yall were amazing!
We are not to be played with Periodt! I loved this for them...they sounded n looked so good! Shout out to Hot Ice we see you looking Gorgeous Ladies ❤... 757 dont play about ours!
Awesome!!! So was that first song they played Magic Mind, by Earth Wind and Fire? Whatever it was, that was a magnificent arrangement!!!🔥🔥🔥
The song is called "I've had enough" by EWF
Thank you for the support
❤ You all did great!!!
that smile and eye contact at 10:59 (and every time after that) made this superb. as a fan who didnt make the show, that gave us the personal connection to the band. *high-five* to her.. #Behold. #MDF$.
Nsu gettin pretty deep
I’m New Orleans we call y’all The Mac after John McDoungh High School in the 7th Ward. Because both schools have the same colors and parable uniforms.

BEHOLD!!!🎷🔰🔰🔰🔰 VA!!!!!!!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love it
7 CITIES STAND UPPPPP 💚
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Behold the Green and Gold...Alumni...Bill..
Great performance! Wasn’t a fan of the can’t stand the rain but Holy Moly that Many Men as the finale!😅😤😤😤
Take a look at those drums the are very colorful
🍽️ate down.
It's very difficult to decide which band is the best but Norfolk was number one. They were on point meaning they didn't make no mistakes at all. Not just the band was great but the flag women & flag me along with the dancing ladies. It should have been decided which band was second & third because the Spartans were the best in this contest.
I grew up 3 blocks from Norfolk State in the '50's when they had virtually nothing. They have been blessed and I am impressed.
What song was after the Missy Elliott section in the dance routine?
I marched at Central State but I have to say, no one is touching NSU...period I think someone in this organization had to have marched DCI because they do all the technical things that DCI does to improve sound. All the way down to the tonal bass drums.... PURE BALANCE
Trolling will commence in 5,4,3….
5:50 what song are they playing?
I’m not your superwoman
What is the first song?
I’ve had enough
I've had enough by Earth Wind & fire
