 JSU Band Day Information 9/23/2017 
The annual JSU Band Day is an event held every year at Jax State that offers high school band students the opportunity to be a “Marching Southerner for a Day.” Several of our recent band graduates from Southside are now members of the JSU Southerners and The PRIDE traditionally has one of the largest groups to participate in band day every year. For $20, participants receive admission to the game, lunch, and instruction from JSU’s top-notch corps of section leaders who will help prepare students to join the Marching Southerners on the field for performance! Participants will also get to sit in the stands next to the Southerners and help them cheer on the Gamecocks as they go head-to-head against Liberty University! Not an instrumentalist? That’s fine! You can still be a part of Band Day! Color guard members will receive instruction from some of the Southerners Color Guard's top members. Guard members are asked to only bring a flag. Majorettes and dance line members will have the opportunity to work with the famous Marching Ballerinas. Drum Majors will get the chance to work with the Southerners' Drum Majors and when it's time to perform, they will get to conduct more than 500 of the South's best and brightest musicians!
