The hardest working band in America, the FAMU Marching 100 will be appearing throughout the state this weekend -- Miami, West Palm Beach, and St. Petersburg.

Tonight the 100rd will face off against Bethune-Cookman in the 4th Annual Eastern Financial Florida Credit Union (dang that's a long name) Band Extravaganza at Florida International University South (in Miami). Show time is at 8:00 p.m.

On Saturday the 100rd travels northward to West Palm Beach to participate in a marching band festival at Suncoast H.S., before traveling to St. Petersburg to march in the 21st Annual M. L. King "Drum Major for Justice" parade on Monday at 1:30 p.m. The St. Pete parade has grown into one of the nation's largest ML King parades and festivals.

Here's the complete schedule (thanks Vic):

Friday, Jan. 13
Miami, FL - 7pm Performance at FIU South

Saturday, Jan. 14
9:00am - Parade (Miami, FL)
5:00pm - Suncoast HS (BOTB) (West Palm Beach, FL)

Sunday, Jan. 15
6:00pm - ML King Festival of Bands (St. Pete, FL)

Monday, Jan. 16
ML King Parade (St. Pete, FL)

As much as the 100rd travel on other folks dim, the University would be smart to send a recruitment team along with them, ala the Fisk Jubilee Singers.
