Bands To Present Concert;
Enjoy an 'Electric Thrill'!

"Remember, my friends, what a handful of trumpet players did to the famous, fabled walls of Jericho? Yes, you'll see the glitter of crashing cymbals, and you'll hear the thunder of rolling drums, and the shimmer of trumpets, and you'll feel something akin to the electric thrill

I once enjoyed, when Gilmore, Liberace, Pat Conway, the great Creator, W. C. Handy, and John Phillip Sousa all came to town on the very same historic day."
