* See our CALENDAR for all events PEP BAND OPPORTUNITIES - PITT Students! Want to perform with the Pitt Band at basketball and/or volleyball games? The Pitt Pep Band is looking for high school students to help cover basketball/volleyball games over the break, when most of the college musicians have gone home. Students get FREE admission to the basketball/volleyball games, and can get FREE tickets for family and friends to attend the game as well. If you are interested, sign up HERE! Please note that the Plum Band is NOT involved in the organization of this. We will not be providing transportation or organizing a big group to go. This will all be done on an individual basis. That being said, this is a wonderful opportunity and we hope that students take advantage of it! After you sign up, the Pitt Band will contact you via email with further details. If you have questions, the Pitt Band will be available to answer them after you sign up. You may also ask Mr. Buckstein if you have questions.
