Go Zips! Ohio's Pride will always have a special place in my heart.....thanks "Chief" for a great college band experience. I played in the marching and symphony bands 1972-76. Opening the EJ Thomas Performing Arts Center was amazing.
I miss Jackoboice. I had the honor of having conduct alumni band while I was a underclassman at akron from 2001-2005. He passed away in october 2006, a week before alumni band performance and homecoming. It was an honor and also very sad when the whole band performed at his home, on a friday, 4 days before he passed.
I remember this, I was there. My Grandfather was the Director of the Band in the 1960- or something, he was called "Cheif." He died 2006 October 17 of Kidney Cancer.
I was in the flutes that year!

Jackoboice had some great bands at Akron University. Akron U has a great band now, but, I miss the old style!

Does the drum major use the Gray baton, or is it just a mace? I'd like to see if I can try out next year.

Doesn't sound like it should. What a weird arrangement, Jackoboice must've hated it.
