¾¨Ó㴫ý's Marching Band premiered an intricate drill and music performance during half time of the first home football game Saturday.
"The band is a hard-working group, and the drills are more intricate than in the past because of the talent level of the students," said R. Tad Greig, director of bands at ¾¨Ó㴫ý. "The band performs numbers such as "Riverdance," Earth, Wind, and Fire's "Let's Groove," a Latin jazz number, "El Gato Triste," and closes with a classic Moody Blues' tune, "Nights in White Satin."
In addition to all ¾¨Ó㴫ý home football games, the band will perform as a guest in three high school marching band festivals. They include: Mercer High School, Sept. 7; Carlyton High School, Sept. 21; and the Lawrence County Band Festival at New Castle High's Tiger Stadium, Sept 25.
