The University of Michigan Marching Band put on an incredible halftime performance during last weekend’s football game, but if you watched the game on TV, you missed the action.
The massive event, which the band labored over for many rehearsals, was not televised. The show featured a full-fledged light show, with band each member holding an illuminated device onto the field.
Thankfully, the full performance is now on YouTube for our viewing pleasure. It took a whopping six months to plan. Watch it below!
