October 31st, 2025: Men's Hockey @ Union
Day trip to Union College in the first game of the Blackout Weekend. This was the first game at Union's new hockey area "M&T Bank Center". 5-2 Victory for the Engineers with two goals by Tyler Wallace and Ethan Bono and a fifth by Thomas Klassek! Union's band remained small enough that the RPI Pep Band played the Anthems despite being the away band. The bands did form a super band and played "Bad Romance" together.

November 21st, 2025: Men's Hockey @ Colgate University
The first leg of the weekend trip was a 2-1 defeat for the Engineers in Hamilton. The experience was also marred by some fairly drunk Colgate supporters who verbally harassed the band, one of whom tried to come into our area of the stands, and who threw some of their beer onto the band at the end of the game. The bands played in a super band and Colgate's Band was also bothered by their own fans. The band was escorted by security out of the arena at the end of the game.
