Baritone beginnings // Paying close attention to the directions from the drum majors, freshman John Adams plays through the ballad of the 2017-2018 marching show “Through the Night”. This is John’s first year in the Pride of the East and he feels optimistic for the year ahead of him. “I enjoy marching here at East. It is unlike any band experience I have gone through and I am excited to see what comes in future years,” Adams said. Photo by Addie Orr
