WVU and Marshall Exhibition Shows
Every year the Daily Mail Kanawha County Majorette and Band Festival has an exhibition show following the final high school performance before the awards ceremony. On the odd numbered years West Virginia University's marching band, "The Pride of West Virginia," does one of their exhibition shows and on the even numbered years Marshall University's marching band, "The Marching Thunder," does one of their exhibition shows.
WVU's marching band began performing for the festival in 2003. Marshall University's marching band began performing for the festival in 2004. The festival acts as a great recruitment opportunity for both bands.

Famous quotes containing the words marshall, exhibition and/or shows:
“But while being a mother is admittedly a lifelong preoccupation, it cannot, should not, must not be a lifelong occupation. . . .”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“Work, as we usually think of it, is energy expended for a further end in view; play is energy expended for its own sake, as with children’s play, or as manifestation of the end or goal of work, as in “playing” chess or the piano. Play in this sense, then, is the fulfillment of work, the exhibition of what the work has been done for.”
—Northrop Frye (1912–1991)
“A well-proportioned mind is one which shows no particular bias; one of which we may safely say that it will never cause its owner to be confined as a madman, tortured as a heretic, or crucified as a blasphemer. Also, on the other hand, that it will never cause him to be applauded as a prophet, revered as a priest, or exalted as a king. Its usual blessings are happiness and mediocrity.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
