The first field show during the halftime of the season opener
The last days of summer smell intertwined with the balminess felt under the wool uniform
The hiss of boos and cheers from the crowds filling the stands
Blurs of blue and white clad bandsmen hurrying for lineup
Watching as the opponents' red and black goes marching off the fields
Bringing with them a feeling of anxiety and a taste of excitement
As the Buckhannon-Upshur High School Band's winning performance begins.
(May 1 1990)
