Printer Guide

The United States Air Force Band of Liberty will be sending you the program selections and personnel list approximately 2–3 weeks prior to the concert date. Please do not use the personnel list or program selections from any previous performances, as band personnel changes continually. As a sponsor, your responsibility is to provide quality printed programs and tickets. Anything less can bring discredit upon the band and the Air Force. Advertising, per se, is not permitted on the program. However, business firms and individuals that contribute toward the cost of printing can be listed as donors and acknowledged on the stage.
