Argonotes

[1] In addition to game day duties, the band also stayed active during the off-season by promoting the Argos, Toronto, and the city's pride by taking part in various local events (Leafs, Raptors, Marlies games, fan festivals, etc.).

Occasionally, the band took its show on the road by representing Toronto and its fans in other cities such as Hamilton and Montreal for events such as the 2009 Labour Day Classic[2] and playoff games.

The band disbanded during the 2017 CFL season, reportedly due to a conflict with the Argonauts' organization.

[3] The Argonotes were the spiritual successors to earlier marching bands associated with the Argonauts over the franchise's long history.

The recruited players were mostly local alumni of the Waterloo, Queen's, Western, UofT, WLU and McGill university bands, ranging from recent graduates to people who last played in the 1950s.
