March Music Madness

Bob Bernhardt brings us another show based on one of his favorite topics – this time, sports. Put on your favorite team’s jersey and join the LO Pops for music that celebrates the best of sports anthems.  You can bet it’ll be “batter up” with selections like “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” and we’ll have some special guests from the sports world there, too!
