FAU Band

Post by Gardner McKay, Jr. »

A few months ago I posted an article about the new Florida Atlantic University marching band. Their uniforms had them looking more like the Marching Parrotheads than the Marching Owls. Today our local Sun Sentinel newspaper has an extensive article that starts out by mentioning our own JB: In cheap Hawaiian shirts and straw hats, the fledgling FAU marching band takes off

Pretty cool band. Can't say I've ever seen a marching band all wearing tropical shirts and straw hats! Sounds and looks like they have fun at it![/url]
I just want to be the last mango standing!

Sure would have beat white vinyl boots, and POUNDS of POLYESTER, and the world's most PAINFUL "Aussie" style blue hat with bright yellow feather in it! UGH! :roll:
