San Nicola 2012
Hello everyone!
Many thanks to everyone who has shown up for the Feast so far! Only one night left!
Just a reminder, we have a small procession at St. Rocco's this Sunday (San Nicola) starting at 11 am. If you are able to make it, please arrive early so you have time to get your music!
Parking will be available in St. Rocco's parking lot-however, Fulton Road is still a mess. Best to take the back road (W. 33rd Street, behind the church).
Hope to see you there!

The Feast 2012!!
It's that time of year again!!! The Feast of the Assumption at Holy Rosary in Little Italy!
Here's the skinny:
August 15th: Procession at 11 am. Get there very early-parking is very limited. Bring water and expect a 2 hour procession. Don't forget your lyres!
Evenings: August 15th-17th. 6 to about 10:15 pm. From 6 to 7:30 we will be strolling the neighborhood. After a break, we will set up in front of the school for concert sets (with breaks) and play until about 10:15 pm. Don't forget your music stands!!!
August 18th: 6-7:30pm strolling the neighborhood, followed by the closing procession Saturday night. We shouldn't need our stands, but it might be handy to keep them around, just in case. (We can always leave them in the ready room if they are not needed).
We should have our usual ready room on the 3rd floor of the school (next to the church). Meet up there, leave your cases and grab your music, etc.
Parking will be difficult throughout the Feast-so be sure you leave enough time to park and get your music!
As always, be sure to let Jesse know if you can or cannot attend each night.
Thank you!!! See you there!

Holy Redeemer (Collinwood Celebration)
Hello everyone!!!
Just a reminder that we will be back at Holy Redeemer this Sunday for a procession for their Collinwood Celebration. :)
Lyres only! Also-it will be hot, so don't forget water and sunblock!
BTW, did you know that the Italian Band first got it's start 100 years ago in Collinwood? Check out the photo on our history page. Wouldn't it be neat if we took a group picture in front of Holy Redeemer? You know I'll have a camera! ;)
See you Sunday!

Mt. Carmel!
First of all, a big Thank You! to everyone who made it to Shore Acres on the Fourth of July!! I know I may sound like a broken record-but we really appreciate you being there! :)
Next up on our schedule-Mt. Carmel, this Saturday and Sunday (July 14th and 15th). Saturday evening starts at 6pm, and we will probably play until about 8:30. We will be making stops around the Mt. Carmel neighborhood, so remember your lyres! We will not be having a sit down concert, so no need to bring your music stands.
The procession on Sunday starts at 1:00 pm. Again, remember your lyres (and sunscreen!) There will be no evening performance on Sunday.
Don't forget, we are back to the standard black and white for Italian Band!
If you haven't already done so, please email Jesse to let him know if you can make it.
See you Saturday!

2012 Schedule is here!
Hello everyone!
First of all, a big 'THANK YOU!' to everyone who came to St. Rocco's on Friday for the procession! We really appreciate you all being there. :)
Our new schedule is out for the summer of 2012! Check out http://italianbandofcleveland.blogspot.com/p/schedule.html for dates and times of each job.
Also of note for St. Rocco- since construction on Fulton Road is on going, some adjustment may need to be made for directions. I will try to update the blog before each job at St. Rocco's, so keep an eye on the blog or any emails from Jesse.
I also hope to be adding other updates to the site soon. Keep your fingers crossed! ;)

Good Friday, 2012!
Hello everyone!
It's been a long time! Hope everyone's been practicing! ;)
Our first gig of 2012 is this Friday at St. Rocco's! Step off for the Good Friday procession is at 6:30 pm, so please arrive at the church by 6:10 pm.
There is some major construction happening on Fulton Road, so we will be meeting by the Day Care Center behind St. Rocco's, rather than in the front. Traffic is currently southbound only, so here are some driving suggestions from Jesse:
I-71 to W25th St exit
take W25th St north, past Metro General Hospital
turn left on Meyer, go several blocks
turn right on W 33rd St (this is the street behind the church)
park in the school parking lot or across the street
If you miss Meyer, continue north on W25th to Clark Ave
then its a left on Clark, and a left onto W33rd.
The Indians do not play on Friday, so that's one less traffic headache!
If you haven't already done so, please let Jesse know if you can attend or not. Thank you!!!
I will be updating the 2012 schedule on this site as soon as the summer schedule is finalized. Stay tuned for updates!!
Hope to see you on Friday!!
