Popular Minn. Zuhrah Shrine Steel Drum Band Silenced by Theft - Band’s Nearly $50K Float StolenMinnesota, USA - A popular parade band may have to go silent this summer because its float has gone missing.

The custom float that takes the Zuhrah Shrine Steel Drum Band to parades around the state was stolen this weekend, which means they could miss parades in more than a dozen communities this summer.

The sounds of the islands come alive when Dave Hanson plays the steel drums. He’s the director of the Zuhrah Shrine Steel Drum Band, a fixture at parades around the state.

“We have parades lined up for this summer,” he said, “all the way from Isanti down to Forest Lake, out to Litchfield, down to Le Sueur.”
