Or show tunes.

3. Something that they played through football season
since it's something that they already know. Specifically? Beats me. My kids' school only marches once a year...in their homecoming parade. Other than that, they're strictly a pep band. And for that, they play things like "Eye of the Tiger" and "We are the Champions" and oh, hell...what was the one they got this year. Damn...it's right on the tip of my tongue but I'm drawing a blank.

:shrug:

If it's cold in your neck of the woods a fun tune might be
the theme to Hawaii Five-0. :-)
