After performing both traditional music and selections for the halftime show, PMB leads the EIU Cheerleaders, Pink Panthers, and the EIU football coach and team to O'Brien Stadium in the Panther Prowl. One hour before each home football game, the Panther Marching Band stands on the steps of Booth Library and performs for their fans. Every hour, the Clock Tower plays the Alma Mater, echoing the song over the entire campus. Clock Towerĭuring Pre-Season Camp each year and after every performance, the Panther Marching Band encircles the Clock Tower for a time of team building and community. Also, at the conclusion of every Friday practice and performance, the Panther Marching Band 'circle-up' and perform the EIU Alma Mater, which strengthens our commitment to each other as individuals and bonds our group as a true musical family. In 2012, Panther Nation was introduced to the 'Panther War Chant,' which instantly became a staple for EIU students, administration, and the community. The Eastern State March has been an audience favorite since 1949, and was composed by former Music Department Chair Dr. There are five traditional EIU songs that every PMB member learns to sing and play during pre-season camp: Alma Mater (For Us Arose), the Eastern State March (Fight Song), I’m So Glad, Hot Time, and Panther War Chant. Some traditions have a rich history while others are new and vibrant. Traditions are a part of any successful organization.
