So you're saying Bodacious has to depend on the Legion's awesome lower brass section to pull Horsepower off that hide?

Don't feel bad bruh, Horsepower would do that to just about any Sousaphone section.

Uh..However you need to perceive it is ok with me. I know that the Legion as a whole has a balance within it where Bodacious plays an intricate part in presenting that balance, especially since the arrangements are done with such complexity. The difference is clear, not until recent years has any of the sectional stuff even been a part of what we do. In fact, while I was marching it was almost frowned upon because we're a group first, everything else falls back.

I get what you're saying bruh. I like the Trojan Explosion, but I LOVE the Legion. There is no comparisons in my book.

As to your last point, I wish more HBCU bands would embrace the concepts of uniformity and musicality and not kick either to the curb just to get house or to say they out blew somebody.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for getting house and entertaining, but you have to maintain excellence as you entertain. In fact, the excellence is the most entertating aspect in my book.
