Just providing some updated POD info. for those who may be interested. You can follow the POD on Instagram @unabands and you can follow the POD drumline on Instagram and Twitter @unapercussion! In addition both are on Facebook. At www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLl98UBPdg2cd_x1UukiLsaPjI0U2hcE_0 you can find a ton of video of the POD drumline as well! We are looking forward to getting on the field next week at A and M!

I heard that the POD would be doing something jointly with the A&M Band. St. Louis Blues?

Well here we go... Some people are going to be offended by something wherever you go, and in the current social climate, it seems that nothing is safe. If one person is offended by anything, then we have to change it! It’s actually trendy to get bent out of shape about some established institution or tradition and try and bring it down now in the name of progress! As a former member of the Pride of Dixie, I can say without a doubt that most alumni would be very upset if the P.O.D. got a name change. Dixie, as far as the name of the UNA Band is a freaking geographical location. I proudly marched next to people of many different races and cultures as a member of that band, and they all understood that and never took issue with it. I am not an extreme right-wing conservative, by the way... but I sometimes really hate the times we currently live in.

They insist that it's not them, it's the extreme Left. Had a very interesting talk with one in particular (I'm more in the middle, but I lean more conservative) and he said he wishes they would quit lumping Liberals in the extreme Left category, he thinks they are taking things, in all situations, way too far. And as much as a history buff as I like to call myself, he quoted something that I never heard before, (bonus points to who can tell me who said it) "I'm a Democrat, and even I fear the Left more than I fear the Right."

Why didn't they go after the dixie chix? I'm surprised it's taken this long. In this turd of a country since about 2009, EVERYTHING is racist. When you can say a car is being a racist or a statue is being racist, a band sure can be racist too. Once again I'm glad I'm old enough not to have grown up in the fascism of today.

These MEN didn't seem to have a problem with Dixie and they came to dirty little Sheffield to do backing vocals for Paul Simon on Loves Me Like a Rock. Problem is, there are becoming fewer and fewer MEN in this country. Probably more than half of all males in the US today don't even know what being a MAN means. It ain't just a penis and a driver license. www.youtube.com/watch?v=O51fcTlw9p4
