USC Marching Band Just Beats It
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.
