As a '94 grad of the school, I can easily hear the difference in the music with the band being intermingled. The pipes are a very distinctive part of The Citadel experience for both the cadets and visitors and their sound should be celebrated and distinct. This is not to take away from the other band in no way. They both have distinctive sounds that do not present well as an intermingled band during the parades. That should be reserved for special performances.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. This band has performed extremely well wherever it has been called upon. Overseas, in the state, and on campus.
