HMB Alumni Band

Humbly talented co-hosts Tim Clay and John Brown sit down with a friend from John's marching days, Dave "Big Al" Griggs. John and Dave catch up, remembering old shows, traditions, parties, and directors. Where did the "Big Al" nickname come from? Dave was in the marching band for how long?! Give the episode a listen!

Also, a special thanks once again to those of you who reached out and donated to the Kelly Piccolo GOLDrush project. Thanks to your contributions, they were able to reach and exceed their goal, purchasing not only a line of game day piccolos, but other instruments for those who need them. All in Kelly's memory, and we thank you for that.

Music recorded by the Hawkeye Marching Band, off the 2003 album "Roll Along!" and the 2007 album "Get Ready For the Boom"
