Looks like we're going to get started somewhat on time. The crowd is STILL filtering in and they're talking about setting an attendance record tonight.

First on the field is the Cavaliers from Rosemont, Illinois. Their 2016 program is entitled "Propaganda" and consists of:

Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary by Purcell, Henry

Symphony for Band - West Point by Gould, Morton

Elegy for Dunkirk by Marianelli, Dario

Lollapalooza by Adams, John

My seat is in my living room with my crappy Apple 5c, counting on those that are there to give us awesome updates!

Show opens with sound effects from all over the field simulating turning the radio dial, hitting snippets of different famous speeches in history.

An organ from the pit starts playing, with the low brass joining, building in intensity and joined by the rest of the horns.

"You are not machines! You are men!"

Crisp sound from the horns to start. Nice 16th note runs form the mellos, and now a unison sustain leading into the final chord of the opening statement.

Crowd is into this show already!

VERY aggressive percussion book. Snares are firing on all cylinders.

"Please follow protocol and GET! IN! LINE!"
