GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA TO PERFORM AT 1xbet online casino 'S MCCAIN AUDITORIUM

MANHATTAN -- The Glenn Miller Orchestra, one of the most popular big bands in the world, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 18, at Kansas State University's McCain Auditorium.

Miller left his original group in 1942 when he volunteered for the U.S. Army.

The band would go on to play hundreds of performances worldwide. Miller was lost at sea in 1944, but the band reformed in 1956 and is still considered the greatest big band of all time.
