Years in the Marching Knights: 4
What is your favorite Marching Knights memory?
My favorite MK memory would have to be the Gasparilla Bowl trip. It gave the section a ton of time to bond with each other in a place many of us haven’t been before. We also got to show off how the Marching Knights roll with multiple performances.
What is your favorite part of gameday?
Being in the stands is the best part of gameday. The whole environment of the band with the fans cheering on the game is something you can’t get anywhere else. It’s also where we get to really put some extra energy into our playing.
What is your favorite stands tune and why?
My favorite would have to be either Slow Funk or APT. Both of these tunes really allow us to show off the sousaphone in both playing and personality, especially Slow Funk.
