Icky… I wish I had Zigzag’s tiny ears…

I’m sure Frank will get into the actual game, and I’m sure I could be writing about a great Rose Bowl too, but USC’s marching band halftime show was quite possibly the worst showing I’ve seen since the Stanford trombone player missed a tackle. I’m speechless. Thankfully, I’m not unable to type.

Now, I know that ABC had at least two mics going at the same time, and it made it seem like phasing, but they were still much worse than the Longhorn band.

Things I should NEVER see or hear at a halftime show:

1) Lame ass Elvis sunglasses.

2) Hearing Michael Jackson’s Beat It.

3) Saxophone, in a singular event. Multiple, fine. Lone tenor wandering around, NO. NO. NO. NO. (honk) NO.
4) Crotch-grabbing, of any kind. Especially to Michael Jackson.

5) All of the above.

Texas, didn’t sound that much better, but better enough to notice a difference between the two bands. And they played a Beatles medley, which seems very un-Texas like, but they made up for being cooler by playing it very square, and wearing the hideous Longhorn marching band uniforms.

In honor of the band…

“This is the only song we know how to play.

We really, really like it so we play it all day…..

HurrAY!”

Sorry, USC fans. You lost the battle of the bands. Time to go bang my head against the wall to get Beat It out of my head.
