Brown 1972
Princeton at Brown
November 4th, 1972
Princeton wins 31-10
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at five easy pieces.
“Princeton Forward”
Speaking of peace, the Band looks forward to the end of that prolonged, brutal, expensive, and above all unpopular conflict, the 1972 Presidential campaign. The candidates have launched attack after attack against each other’s positions, accentuating the differences between them. We note, however, a common theme struck by the Presidential contenders. We form
a) an honest remark
b) a fat chance, or
c) a forked tongue
knowing that in reality such rhetoric is but “Promises, Promises”
(Band forms four-pronged fork)
Speaking of peace, the Band turns to the recent accord reached after months of dispute and delicate negotiations between Johnny Carson and his former wife, Joanne. Forming Doc Severinson and the NBC orchestra on the field, the Band wishes Johnny well with his newly-found peace and happiness.
“Wedding Bell Blues” (Band forms two broken lines at angles, i.e. ‘// ||’)
a) a Body by Fischer,
b) a hidden television camera,
c) front row seats,
d) a noisy candy wrapper, or
e) all of the above,
the Band overhears Fischer’s remark “I’ve Got You Under My Skin”
(Band forms blob)
Rendez-vous in quest of an honorable peace, we recall trips to Peking, Paris, and Hollywood. Should Senator George McGovern be elected President, however, the Band would be forced to ask the musical questions, “I Wonder Who’s Kissing Her Now?”
“I Wonder Who’s Kissing Her Now?” (Band forms question mark)
Speaking of easy pieces, the Band shoots the moon and offers the fifth easy piece as a constellation prize.
“Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”
