University of Idaho Marching Band Michael Jackson Show

Besides being a railfan, I am also a member of the University of Idaho marching band where I play trombone. Our first show this year was a Michael Jackson show. It was purely by accident that we did this show after he died. Our director started writing the music back in May, and the show was about half finished when Jackson died. Personally, I am not a huge fan of Jackson or his music, but I do like this show. It is one of the best shows I have been a part of, very well arranged and a nice little (accidental) tribute to him. This show includes his most famous songs. It is built around the theme from Thriller, and it also contains Smooth Criminal, Man In The Mirror, Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough, Billie Jean, Beat It, and Bad. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did performing it!

GO VANDALS!!!!!!!
