Pete Carroll might go undefeated but Art Bartner could not even win one game. USC’s band lost to Grambling today on ESPN’s College Football Live. If it’s any consolation, the band’s 1977 appearance at the World Series was shown on ESPN’s New York Yankees’ drama, The Bronx Is Burning.
But that was in the band’s more energetic days, when Kansas songs owned the AM airwaves and 8-track tapes flew off the Wherehouse shelves.
