The Band had the honor of playing for DCFD Legend Kenny Cox.  Kenny is a retired DC Fireman and longtime Local 36 Vice-President.  He is responsible for many of the benefits that firefighters have today, both in the DCFD and across the country.
Thank You Kenny!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

3/18/2021

 

​It's been a long year.  The last time the Band got to play together was the 2020 Annapolis St. Patrick's Day Parade.  There were no parades for us this year but we did manage to get out on St. Paddy's Day.  
​Special thanks to Eddie Conway & Garry's Grill in Severna Park, MD for giving us a place to play and to have a few cold ones together.

Our very own Jimmy "The Lungs" Mazzara has been touring the DC metro area lifting the spirits of those affected by the coronavirus.  He's made the rounds at local hospitals and has played at numerous DC monuments.  Take a look at a couple of the news stories below, complete with the Pat Collins treatment.
Jimmy has decided to start a fundraiser for the World Central Kitchen.

March started out great with the Band playing on a beautiful day in Annapolis.  Unfortunately, everything has come to a screaming halt.  Hopefully, everyone is stocked up with plenty of Guinness and your favorite Irish Whiskey.  
We'll see you out there soon!
