Hey there! Welcome to 001011 Falcon! This is a website for my school's 6th-8th grade band! Enjoy the music! :)
001011 Falcon started in 2007, during the 07-08 school year at the middle school. 8th grader Nicky E. started a youtube account to put the songs that they played online, so people could listen to them, and give feedback, etc.
Eventually, the youtube account escalated into a protopage. And that's where we are now.
