The 122nd Army Band rock ensemble, known as "Flashbang," performed in concert Jan. 24, 2015, at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. The band performed at the Rock Hall as part of the fifth and last semi-final round of the Tri-C High School Rock Off, a high school rock band competition in its 19th year. The 122nd Army Band's performance was an exhibition to close out the evening's performances, not part of the Rock Off. This was Flashbang's second performance in Cuyahoga Community College's annual
high school rock band competition.
