Getting your player ready...
Students at the Ohio State School for the Blind screamed with joy when they learned their marching band will make history at the 2010 Tournament of Roses Parade. It will be the first time a blind marching band takes part in the flower-bedecked parade in Pasadena, Calif., said the school’s music director, Carol Agler. The band was formed in 2005 when the football team from the neighboring Ohio School for the Deaf was looking for a band to play at its games. Macy McClain, left, the band’s flute and piccolo player, compared the honor with being picked for “American Idol.” “Except you don’t have to stand in line,” she said.
