Here I am again watching this video. These young men and women, in the entire band deserves a standing ovation. The J4, put it down especially the lead drum major, WOW!! The majorettes were beautiful, posed and excellent. Plus, the band sounded AWESOME 👏!!!
As a former drum major, may I just say...HELLL YEAHHHH!!!!! I wish had moves like them and not a single person out of step in the band. I got misty eyed cuz still believe marching band makes you a better person.
Funny you should mention better person. I screen candidates for Toyota for a living and the exact same skills that we need and look for in our team members are what these band members learn. It's a great training ground for all sorts of real world work.
Why is that black folk always love when people come in and take their creativity or anything... everyone wants to be black until it’s time to be black..
I know the band director is a JSU alum and one of the instructors is a former J5, but it still takes a lot of discipline to do what those DMs were doing. Big ups to Skyline.
You can tell they have been watching the J5 drum Major's of Jackson St. I'm from Houston Texas, and I think the J5 is some of the coldest drum major's to do it.
LC I wouldn’t say that much because then the style would be played out and it wouldn’t be as fun to watch anymore. So I personally like the amount there is now is perfect.
The Band Is Disciplined The Sound is Disciplined ........ Im in love with it . Who ever is the band director and staff , you all are doing a wonderful job with these Magnificent Musicians.
Love those HARD working Drum Majors. Brings back memories of my days in the drumline at HS. I hope the band continues to perform with aplomb. Continued success to the band!
Everyone on here commenting on how Skyline is copying JSU’s routine..... So I guess everyone is gonna ignore all the Louisiana bands that emulate Southern huh.... It’s ok for a high school to emulate a college band but a college band can’t imitate another college band. Those are the rules. Instead of criticizing these kids give them credit because would you rather see this band as a Corp style band or a replica of JSU? That’s what I thought.
@@KillaKevProd That's unfortunate that they spent all that time copying another schools routine when they could have used that time to create their own.
I could agree if this were another university but I dont agree because it's a high school. Jackson has some of the coolest drum majors around. There are hella high schools that emulate them.
Ok, These Baby Drum Majors Are Working Hard & The Lead DM Has So Much Intensity! The Band Sounds Pretty Ok, But They Are Still Learning! I Would Love To See These Kids 5 Years From Now! I Hear You Mini War & Thunder!
Some of these comments are disgusting. Grown Men and Women criticizing Young Adults!! "I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside. Give them a sense of pride to make it easier. Everybody searching for a hero. (It's call Mentoring. How many kids want to be Like Mike?) People need someone to look up to." #JesusTakeTheWheel #Negativity
Killa Kev Productions, Yes. I watched the entire video. The drum Majors were very clever but only a small portion of a much larger group. It's just too bad that the band wasn't given equal time. Maybe the drum majors are related to the videographer.
The other 2 Male DMs beside the young lady is marching but theyre counting too fast Head DM & the Young Lady is on one number @ they’re on a different number they have to pick their feet up in order to stay with them... Amd the instrumentalists aren’t enthusiastic they’re also not picking their they’re feet up & they’re being lazy with marching enthusiasm is key to marching band
I understand if you are influenced by a HBCU band but why not come up with your own routine? I know many others schools tend to do this too but this is a great opportunity to set yourselves apart. Because if not, then we have about 4 different Drum Major squads doing the same JSU get ready routine. Don’t get me wrong they did a good job but imagine how great it would be if they did their own routine.
xXxxXx high schools tend to emulate other schools like PWIs. In Texas, if you go to an urban school, you emulate either PV, TxSU, or Southern. For these men to come from Jackson State, and bring their influence and wisdom to these kids, that is a big accomplishment. And for them to bring a Sonic Boom routine to a state that is predominantly influenced by Prairie View, I’d give them a standing ovation. #TheeILove
David Smith I went to a hs in Texas. Close to Skyline as well and our band director was in an HBCU band. Was a drum major myself. There were times we were influenced by his college DMs but that didn’t mean that we’d go out and copy their whole routine. I’m not saying we were original or we were better or anything. It’s just that when you see a whole bunch of DMs do this same exact routine then nothing really sets you apart.
AXZ truth be told, it’s high school not a university, and they are kids. Like HBCU should have this type influence on kids. Why not. People just worried about the wrong things. It’s there band and if they choose to do JSU routines then so be it. They like it I love it.
They are so awesome
That drink major though..🔥🔥🔥🔥👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
That day was off the chain, I was there Skyline showed out
I watch this video everyday, I can’t get over how good the lead drum major is!!!! WOW!!
And to see him now at Jackson State as a J5... it paid off
Here I am again watching this video. These young men and women, in the entire band deserves a standing ovation. The J4, put it down especially the lead drum major, WOW!! The majorettes were beautiful, posed and excellent. Plus, the band sounded AWESOME 👏!!!
I Love myself some SKYLINE HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND!
The head drum major showed OUT!! Wow!! He put it down!! Whole band did a great job!
Maaan I swear the lead drum major is a beast!!! He's another Abraham from Jsu I hope he goes to Jackson state he's already ready
you are so right!!
Ken Williams yes he’s going.
Why these grown people hating on kids....the DM’s period did fantastic
you know why...because they are nobodies
My high school band was nothing like this....this is amazing.
Head drum major will always be an og, hope he goes off to become part of j5
As a former drum major, may I just say...HELLL YEAHHHH!!!!! I wish had moves like them and not a single person out of step in the band. I got misty eyed cuz still believe marching band makes you a better person.
Hope Clayburn that one inna back aint Serving as the rest but hes trying his best
Funny you should mention better person. I screen candidates for Toyota for a living and the exact same skills that we need and look for in our team members are what these band members learn. It's a great training ground for all sorts of real world work.
Love the mixture of students in the band too
Skyline High. Probably the most diverse high school in Dallas.
I believe Skyline is a magnet high school and is mixed half Black and Hispanic a little more Hispanic though which explains the diversity
Great school in the Pleasant Grove section of Dallas
Why is that black folk always love when people come in and take their creativity or anything... everyone wants to be black until it’s time to be black..
I know the band director is a JSU alum and one of the instructors is a former J5, but it still takes a lot of discipline to do what those DMs were doing. Big ups to Skyline.
Love the JSU influence on this band....these kids are very disciplined. One of the best high school bands I've ever seen.
Great Job guys
Great band in all divisions. Love your diversity. You all do Humanity proud.
the head drum major needs to head to Jackson,,,,,,,def is disciplined and has thats stank
joshua morgan he’s actually going for real.
GDub Productions that’s awesome. He will fit in jus fine ,, hope he grows just a little bit he killin so screw height 🙌🏾
Boy, them drum majors....I thought I was watching Jackson State👏👏👏...band is huge and they sound good too!!!!
You can tell they have been watching the J5 drum Major's of Jackson St. I'm from Houston Texas, and I think the J5 is some of the coldest drum major's to do it.
One of their drum major instructors is former J5
More HS bands need J5 influence. WOW!....Awesome!!!!
LC I wouldn’t say that much because then the style would be played out and it wouldn’t be as fun to watch anymore. So I personally like the amount there is now is perfect.
Huge bands usually lose sound but they are tight!
This a high school?!!! Damn. Impressive.
marviltron Dallas, Texas
Dallas, Texas Triple D, stand up!
I agree, very impressive
One of the largest HS in Texas!!
marviltron yea we got a very good band
They were all good however that lead DM set the bar HIGH. He nice & laser focused.
The Band Is Disciplined The Sound is Disciplined ........ Im in love with it . Who ever is the band director and staff , you all are doing a wonderful job with these Magnificent Musicians.
They're going to make awesome college drum majors!
Love those HARD working Drum Majors. Brings back memories of my days in the drumline at HS. I hope the band continues to perform with aplomb. Continued success to the band!
Awesome job Dallas - Skyline High School, JSU would be proud - so much discipline.
Very nice!
HE USE TO BE THE BAND DIRECTOR OF PROVINE HIGH SCHOOL IN JACKSON MS
Obviously inspired by the Sonic Boom, these young men are outstanding. Great job.
and young women
Dallas, TX! Skyline did that!
They are deeeeeeeeep! And look and sound good
That head DM was on point!!!
I normally don't comment, but they were awesome for a high school band.
Booooom baby !!!! JSUUU has def left a impact on them !!
Skyline has a lot of Latino on the band. My people got Rut hum too. ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😎😎😎😔
That band is huge I went to Tennessee State University bit the lead Drum Major reminds me of Abraham at Jackson State University he was a beast.
They sound great for a high school
My alumni!! Go skyline high school!!!!!!!
They're good, one of the best sounding high schools to do "get ready" great job
Jim Hill and Canton high both from Jackson, Mississippi can do get ready. Also Edna Karr from New Orleans, Louisiana
Great to see high schools influenced by HBCU’s.
@@09mrslick Edna Carr is an awesome band ! One of their Drum Majors is a Drum Major for JSU.
They sound and look great..esp for a high school!
Drum majors are the High School version of Jackson State 👍👍👌👌👏👏
JSU is the pinnacle of AALLLL marching bands then now and to be come
The Drummajors routine right exactly before the tubas was about to play get ready that was smooth asf
This high school band is awesome!!
Really good for high school students. Loving the diversity, and how big of a band that is.
Ain’t that head drum major a drum major for J5 this year
yup
Listening to the intro and hearing I thought it was J-State marching in!! Very good and well disciplined
WOW! THEY ARE AWESOME!
I can watch ole dude the lead drum major All day. He brings it , and the one behind him is sharp too.
Everyone on here commenting on how Skyline is copying JSU’s routine.....
So I guess everyone is gonna ignore all the Louisiana bands that emulate Southern huh....
It’s ok for a high school to emulate a college band but a college band can’t imitate another college band. Those are the rules.
Instead of criticizing these kids give them credit because would you rather see this band as a Corp style band or a replica of JSU?
That’s what I thought.
You Betta Say It!!!👏💕👏
I know where they went to Band Camp. Excellent!!!! #JSU
So Happ to be a Skyline High School Raider Alumni !!!!!!!!!!!
Whoever the band director is .I have the up most respect for i see nothing but discipline in these young people

This is JSU routine.....
Yes, their instructors marched for JSU
@@KillaKevProd That's unfortunate that they spent all that time copying another schools routine when they could have used that time to create their own.
I could agree if this were another university but I dont agree because it's a high school. Jackson has some of the coolest drum majors around. There are hella high schools that emulate them.
@@KillaKevProd originality is always best man, no matter how you look at it. Lazy instructors
AllAmericanGuy01 no matter how you look at it you are wrong....see how easy that was
Kids looked good. Hard work paid off. Did Dallas proud! JSU should be flattered.
Damn right marvin (hd) still got it. Im proud of you mars!!
DO IT FOR THA CULTURE!!!!!
That peddle tone though at the end nasty I like it already
That first move before the song had me like 😱
Ok Jackson State full routine. Cute.

Ok, These Baby Drum Majors Are Working Hard & The Lead DM Has So Much Intensity! The Band Sounds Pretty Ok, But They Are Still Learning! I Would Love To See These Kids 5 Years From Now! I Hear You Mini War & Thunder!

RAIDER PRIDE '92
MY ALMA MATER!!!!! #SRBNATION
Was that mclovin at the end🤔🤔
I don't get it ??? Does the band play ? All those great kids and all I saw was the drum major squad.
There really isn't anything to "get" Did you make this comment before you watched the video in full because they definitely played.
Killa Kev Productions, Yes. I watched the entire video. The drum Majors were very clever but only a small portion of a much larger group. It's just too bad that the band wasn't given equal time. Maybe the drum majors are related to the videographer.
Tammy Cambell lol no this was my first time ever recording this band. I’m familiar with the drum major’s routine so I made sure to capture it.
Drum majors good job... female doesn’t know the routine....
Enough of this guys at the front concentrate on the women!
You don’t get to make those decisions.
The other 2 Male DMs beside the young lady is marching but theyre counting too fast Head DM & the Young Lady is on one number @ they’re on a different number they have to pick their feet up in order to stay with them... Amd the instrumentalists aren’t enthusiastic they’re also not picking their they’re feet up & they’re being lazy with marching enthusiasm is key to marching band
Davin Williams you’re criticizing a high school marching band. They’re 14-18....they’re teenagers
Nice,but the girl DM isnt on point
5:15😂
