Anybody know where the Oregon and Wisconsin bands are rehearsing next week?

Regarding the GGB and YGB on Oregon's schedule...
Oregon Bands wrote:The Oregon Athletic Bands maintain two 12-member scholarship groups known as the Green Garter Band (GGB) and the Yellow Garter Band (YGB). The Garter Bands are the most versatile and elite athletic musical groups on campus. Often seen performing around the stadium before football games, the GGB and YGB play everything from Louie Louie to Disney’s Duck Tales. Instrumentation for the bands includes four saxophones (two altos, tenor and bari), one mellophone, three trumpets, two trombones, bass guitar and drums. All members are selected by audition from the OMB.
