What game will the FMB be traveling to outside BG? I know the team usually does at least one away game.

The FMB is not traveling to any games this year. We are going to Indy for BOA (bands of america) and to a high school band festival. Dr. Hayward said she tried getting us to an away game, but the dates did not work out because of band concerts for the sit down bands already scheduled those weekends. From what I heard the concert schedules come out way before the football schedules does.
I think I heard that she tried to go to MSU but it is there homecoming, and also going to Miami, but it is their homecoming.
kind of sad we are not going to an away game, but I think going to the BOA will be an amazing experience for everyone.

Also, Akron and Toledo's band is suppose to be coming to BG

The Toiletto band is better than the UA band. Last year when we went to that game, a few of their sousa players were wearing tennis shoes.

I vaguely remember Turdledo's band from the game at their place. Based on that memory, I'm going to begin growing my fingernails today and bring a chalkboard to the game so I can join in their performance. Collaboration and all that, y'know.

I persoanlly am more than willing to drive all the way to BC on a tour bus... the only reason we're not going there is because its too far away.




Minnesota was also too far away, I don't know about others, but I would have loved to be at that game Saturday.

I figured Michigan State would have been a very doable road trip being only 2-2 1/2 hours away.

If you're wondering why the band isn't going, its because its their alumni day this weekend. No room for the FMB on alumni day.
