Information on Shannon Rovers |
They may've begun as 12 Irish immigrants who got together to play
music back in 1926 but today, the Shannon Rovers are an elite troop
of bagpipers and drummers who've played for every President since
Franklin D. Roosevelt! In fact, no Saint Patrick's Day Parade in Chicago
would be complete without them! They've been leading the parade for
50 years now. Our Doug Banks picked up his drumsticks to see what
it is like being a Shannon Rover!
