Friday Night Lights
Stadium lights, the marching band, the whole town under the Friday sky.
The smell of freshly cut grass. Stadium lights flickering on against the autumn sky. The marching band warming up in the parking lot. Whether you were on the field, in the band, in the stands, or hanging out beneath the bleachers, these were the songs that echoed through stadium speakers, blasted from pickup trucks in the lot, and played at the victory celebration after — small-town America from the '70s, '80s, and '90s, where Friday night wasn't just a game. It was an event.
