DVD Review: Kobe Doin' Work
Review: Living In Emergency
OK, so like most of Los Angeles, LAist is watching the Rose Bowl tonight and happened to catch part of the halftime entertainment: The Spirit of Troy: Trojan Marching Band.
Here are a few quick thoughts:
1. Sunglasses do not make the marching outfit. Even if you are in LA.
2. It took a while for us to recognize "Beat it" -- but we sure did recognize MJ's patented crotch grab instantly. Even on maroon polyester.
Now we wonder how many calls ABC will get from angry parents offended by the band's routine? And we're not talking about the music.

And in the end ... Texas pulls it off.
Ohhhh. That's what they were playing and what the crotch grabbing was all about? I know marching bands put in a lot of hardwork into their fieldshows, but I'm programmed to hate 'SC and the band based on my Bruin roots.
Man, it's always a good night when the Trojans lose. Go Texas! Go Bruins! ;)
a picture of the crotch grab if you missed it.

Note to USC band: Get some new music, people! Old MJ songs AND Tusk? Did my dentist program your material? You know, there's been some music written since the 80s. Check it out.
Hey, how about a Perry Como retrospective...or a Trojan Tribute to the musical genius of Leo Sayer?
Since they were on the original recording of Tusk, they're never giving it up.
