Easton Area High School band has missed out on traditions, but they’ve adapted and are proud Updated 8:51 AM; Facebook Share But in the words of instrumental music program leader Chris Ballentine, his kids are highly adaptable. Limitations on crowd size means the entire 300-member marching band has yet to perform anywhere as a complete unit.

They performed concerts “virtually,” meaning portions of the band performed separately and the whole unit was spliced together for online consumption.
