Return of the Band: Second Semester

To those in Band, and to those who have any desire whatsoever of becoming as such,

Welcome back! This semester, we'll be manifesting our magnificent musical mastery (presenting an organization that CAN say that three-times-fast) at hockey and basketball games, rather than those of the football variety, so grab your rugbies and ice-skates and get ready to play!

To anyone wishing to join the Band this semester, rehearsals are Tuesdays from 6:00 P.M. to about 7:30 P.M. (not including the wholesome Jo's dinner with the Band afterwards) at Fulton Rehearsal Hall. You don't need to audition, and you don't need to own an instrument. We've also been endorsed by multiple celebrities of your choosing as the best decision they could have ever made at Brown, had they come to Brown. In conclusion, the Band rocks. Plus, we love you already. Join us!

Band Board 2012-13!

Congratulations to the New Band Board!

President: Carrie Danielson '14
Vice President: Elaine Nguyen '15
Mom: Emily Gleason '15
Money God: London Cooper-Troendle '16
CorSec: Armani Madison '16
RecSec: Sid Karesh '16

First rehearsal!

Hey Band! (and soon-to-be Bandies)

Don't miss the first rehearsal, next Tuesday, September 11.  We will be meeting in our usual space, Fulton Hall.  Rehearsal starts at 6 pm, but come at 5:30 to have some free ice cream and meet the raucous bunch of--I mean, fine young men and women of the Brown University Band.

Rememember that there are no auditions and you don't need your own instrument.  So come prepared to make the best decision you will make during your time at this university.  Still not convinced?  Check out this, and this, and this.

Welcome!

Welcome to the new Brown Band website!  We hope you enjoy it.

Our new site, based on the Drupal CMS, is full of new features and the same Band content you know and love.  Check it all out.  If you have any questions or spot something amiss, be sure to email the webmaster.

Thanks a lot!  We're looking forward to a great season!
