So our Band members will be in Ireland during NCAA tourney, correct?

What will we do to fill this void, basically every school I can remember always has a band courtside supporting their team and playing the schools songs ect.

Can we get former FU band members together to make the trip, FU can use the same expense fund they would have used to get the current pep band members there.......

The hell with a pep band. After 43 years, hire the Grateful Dead to play.

NGU Band will substitute for the Paladin Regiment in the NCAA tournament. Their director, Gary Rhoden, is a former trumpet player in the Paladin Regiment who went to Furman during the Jeff Jackson era. I spoke to him last night and he is thrilled.
Great!
