B Mountain View Spirit Makers The trombone section blows t'or all their worth, upporting the basketball team and promoting spirit and enthusiasm at the home ball games was the chief task of Pep Band. The band also played at many of the spirit assemblies. lt was great fun to show our spirit at the games and get all the fans and players all pumped up and ready to go, said one Pep Band member, The group was made up of members from the Symphonic Band who wanted to play, and a few select members of the Concert Band. These musicians were then split into two smaller bands, called the red band and the black band. These two groups would alternate playing between the home ball games. Each Pep Bander had a shirt sporting the saying, lt ainlt a free country if a Cat can't blow what he pleasesf' This motto was followed almost religiously by performing such music as Popeye's Song , l'McDonald's Theme , Ease on Down the Roadl' and even our own school song, The Notre Dame Fight Song . swf' at ' T 'iii - v E ,' Front, left: Mark Fullerton, Margaret Shepard, Sandy Brothers, Suzy Ellis, Chris Foreman, Barbara Morrow.

Director Tom Barber told Summit that the Stage Band was one of his favorite classes because of the nature of the music. Many of the top songs of the day filled the band's repertoire. Sophomore Mike Lancaster, one of the Stage Band members, earned a trip to Europe this summer by sending in a tape of music on his baritone horn. Lancaster played at Carnegie Hall in New York before leaving the country. Students from each state were selected for the musical tour of France, Italy and Switzerland. They traveled under the title of 'iAmerica's Youth in Concerti' and were taken to Europe by teachers of the Universal Academy of Music.
