I'm with you Ferrari.    Those of us that were Stanford undergrads get (to a point) the LSJUMB and most of us had friends that were in the band.  Most grad students wouldn't know what LSJUMB means, let alone get the band and they clearly would not have had friends on the field.  OSU, Kal and others can keep their goose stepping types.  We have a small school of very independent thinkers and marching in line is something that most would not want to spend drill and kill time repeating.  Good for them and I think that's a great and productive decision.   

Please Note, there are some great musicians in the band.  Some that turned down some top music schools.  It's a student run organization of college students - bright college students blowing off steam.  If you want great music, you can go listen to many of the same musicians play in the symphony at Bing or in the Jazz band. 

"Oh these Irish, why do they fight?!"  Oy! Ziga Zaga...and Come Join the Band!
