Rocky4 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 20 posts and only 1 question so far? On to the next one. Zeppelin albums often had words or phrases etched between the grooves and the label. I can recall three. Name one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 I'm calling foul. I got it right on the first guess. Actually you said the Military..which would include the Marine, Navy, Army and Air Force bands, which in fact have separate budgets The answer is the US Army, which has several bands including it's own jazz band, but that is just part of the question, remember I asked for the budget and the number of employees. The US Army employs 5,000 musician around the world with a budget of $196 Million!!! By the way the US Navy has a blue grass band...I wonder if they ever get together with the Blue Angles?
