The band works its collective butt off to produce great shows. The Marching Owls sound like twice or three times the number of people who make up the band.
I am told President Frank Brogan is very pleased with the band's progress. he even had his Christmas card photo made with members of the band in the background.
The Marching owls will be playing at some sort of Heart Walk on Saturday and will entertain at the last game (first away "trip" for the band) at FIU. The Owls and FIU band will get together at halftime to play "Amazing Grace", and both bands will do their shows.
The band was supposed to give a special performance for Palm Beach County high school bands at the area's major prep competition, but the event was postponed or canceled due to Hurricane Wilma. Hopefully, the owls will get to show local high school players what they can expect and convince them to come to FAU and make the band even stronger in the coming years.
I know the band plans to attend some away games in the future. That will give the team a great boost when away from home.
FAU is likely to get a major visiting band or two next year. I think Troy's Sound of the South - one of the country's best bands, with 300 or so members (www.soundofthesouth.org) - is considering a South Florida trip. Troy plays at FAU nd FIU next fall.

On the bus to the N. Texas game we were joking around and thought up the name Burrowing Owl Marching band. That way for short we could be called the BOMB!!!!

We have been calling ourselves The Fighting Owl Marching Band (F.O.M.B. for short). But the school told us we cant use that because Nike wont let the sports team use the word "fighting". Ughhh politics! So now we are "The pride of the Owl Marching Band." We dont really like it so it is only temporary.

Hey, I like that!!!! 8-) That gets my vote!!!! The BOMB
It is listed on the FAU web site on the college of arts and letters page as Fighting Owls Marching Band. Hopefully Nike won't notice.
I have a good friend down in Georgia that graduated from Duke. According to him, their band is the Duke University Marching Band or D.U.M.B.
