Then I don't understand your complaint about those uniforms. They are wearing what are very typical marching band uniforms. They are likely the same ones that they have been wearing for years. The style is what they call 'futuristic military', which is very popular among bands today.

As far as school songs, my HS(Dulaney) performed "My Maryland" at every game. I attended the University of MD College Park. This school also played "My Maryland" at every sporting event. Performed in the band uniforms. I graduated HS 1984. U. of MD. 1988. U of MD still plays "My Maryland" to this day.

That depends on the type of program. It sounds like your high school band was a 'football band'; ie a band that does not compete. This band pictured is a 'competition band', which adopts the drum and bugle corp style. College bands rarely adopt that style.
