Divine Nine Get Your Weight Up... Posted on 10-30-2005
1FocusedBruh

LOL they usually are hesitant to let Phi Mu Alpha and KKPsi step in the shows at the schools down here because of that. (they try and pull some "because we are all musicians its a given that we should be able to step well so it isn't fair" card so they don't let folk compete but showcase us as exhibitions and what not). What chapter was it btw? I know down here we have unity day on the strip where PMA, SAI, KKPsi, and TBS in the AUC just post outside of the strip and do stuff include step. Morehouse usually doesn't step outside of a very small part of the probate but the stuff i saw the orgs at CAU do was just crunk as hell.

Too much time getting lines right for their big screen movie productions.

I must agree that the step shows are not all that they used to be... Here at Central our stepshow was crazy.. KAPsi was good I was very impressed also KKPsi did good, the Alpha's used the show from last year and the Iota's music got messed up. However the Ques were terrible and the judges were terrible they **** me off. I don't think that judges should be greek.

We dealt with the controversy of Greek or Non Greek judges at our Homecoming show. Yes, sometimes judges may favor their organization, but would a Non Greek really know what to look for (i.e. precision, difficulty, creativity) as much as a Greek? We ended up having a mixed panel of judges but those were definately concerns. *That was for you B :wink:

I would have to disagree on this one because we just had our Homecoming Greek Step Show this past Saturday and this had to be one of the best ones that I've seen since I've been here....but in other places...they can be a little :pooh: .... I'm actually looking forward to next year's Step Show because we will have all Divine 9 stepping (hopefully) since we are supposed to be having Iotas on the yard next year...I'm very curious to see them step...but only time will tell. As far as KKPsi and the rest of them boys, I know the ones here can put on a good party hop show, but I've never really seen them step...its always the Frats/Sorors...but in due time I guess

Hey I never knew that!! When does this unity day typically happen? And yeah...I know firsthand how Divine 9 is hesitant to include PMA,SAI,KKPsi,&TBS step because when it cam time to decide if they should be included in any step shows people were NOT pleased!!! Personally, I think it'll make things interesting cuz I'm tired of seeing the same ole folks. That's why the spring step show should so interesting w/ 4 extra orgs(not to mention how long it's gonna be :shock.

I feel what 1focusedBruh is saying. I thought it was just a southern thing. When I went to step shoes at home in Wisconsin the Greeks were on POINT! But when I got to Tuskegee and I went to the Morehouse Step show and the ASU (Alabama State University) State Wide Step Show I was like . KKPsi is always on point they set the show out at Morehouse and the alumni Delta chapter from Stone Mountain was awesome. The others need a little work. But I can say the Zeta's on Tuskegee campus always put on a good show and onlly four of them step. So the others need to get it together.

i've heard that the black greeks down south step more and the black greeks up north dance more all the movies and technology doesn't need to be done nothing beats straight steppin with a lil creativity and as far as judges go it's best to have NONgreeks cuz greeks favor their own org and it aint hard to judge

^^^^ HMMMMM. I beg to differ. The ones up North (Well in Wisconsin) do a combination of both. To me their shows have more thought put into it than the ones I have seen in the South thus far. But I need to see some more in the south first. Going to one Saturday.
