Whether they were on the field in concert, or in a gymnasium, the McNeese band members always gave A Little Something Extra In addition to the usual marching and playing expected from a marching band, the ‘‘Pride of Louisiana’ added singing, dancing, and even whistling to their half- time shows. Led by Drum Major Steve Schoppert and Assistant Drum Major Bry- an Elliot, songs such as Manhattan Trans- fer's ‘‘Why Not” featured a 190-member dance routine and jazz scatting while “Big Noise from Winnetka’ had band members whistling and rifle line members dancing with the Cowgirl Kickers. The choreography and ‘‘voice training”’ for these shows started in late August at band ‘“‘Round-up’’. This consisted of re- viewing marching fundamentals and learning the first of three shows. Vocal A Cappella Choir and instrumental music was memorized and dance steps and marching routines were learned. Other songs featured by the band includ- ed “All Night Long”, ‘Old Man River’’, ‘‘Ma- laguena” and “You'll Never Walk Alone”’. Auxiliary leaders for the ‘‘Pride of Lou- isiana’’ were Flag Captains Mandy Rog- ers and Teresa Miller, Rifle Captains Brian Daughadril and Darryl Cole, and feature Twirler Captain Patty Reeves.
