...sent the Talladega College Marching Band to the Trump Presidential Inauguration!!!!! College President Billy Hawkins was threatened, cajoled, and downright cussed out over accepting the invitation...Cudos to Billy and the band! Great Americans will rise to the occasion to make our country a better place to live...[:D][:D]

    And, I think that his appearance on Bill O'Reilly's show resulted in over the top funding to get that band to the inauguration!

    Way to go Talladega College Marching Band!!!!! [^]

    If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!

    Correction.....Alabama didn't send them, U.S citizens from around the country contributed to their desired cause with donations, Alabama couldn't fund them....They did Alabama proud [;)]

    ABC reported the story, but said it was an appearance on a 'cable news network' that triggered the fundraising. No mention that it was O'Reilly on FOX.

    The media can't die soon enough.
