Stanford Band defends themselves at being terrible. Could the ban grow even longer?

The Stanford Band isn’t backing down. They’re bad. They suck. And they’re proud of it!

The noise on the Farm released a long, rambling, nonsensical statement about needing to bring the funk back. It includes this wonderful sentiment.

This suspension jeopardizes the vitality and viability of the organization. The Administration’s decision to suspend independent student management of the Band also threatens the integrity of one of Stanford’s few remaining independent student organizations - and with it the values of free expression and irreverence which we believe are vital to a healthy university culture.
