University Of Minnesota Performs With Timberlake At Super Bowl

Marching bands have long been a part of the halftime festivities at football games. Well, at the most important NFL game of the year, Super Bowl LII, the University of Minnesota marching band got the chance to perform in front of thousands of fans at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis and to millions more watching on TV.

The NFL posted the full performance on its YouTube channel.

At the 6:48 mark in the video, members of the University of Minnesota drumline come into view as halftime performer Justin Timberlake began to sing his hit song "Suit and Tie." 

Rather than wearing their traditional uniform, the band members were wearing their own suit and tie outfit.

Drum Corps Ties

You may recognize some of the performers from DCI. Members of the Blue Knights were either performing in the show or helping to produce the epic show.


You also may recognize another drum corps member — none other than Kyle Tsuchiya, a member of the Bluecoats snareline.


Here's a video of Tsuchiya drumming along with the Bluecoats this past summer in preparation for the show in Denver.
