@CRuzer: That’s true and I didn’t mean to give wrong information – it’s not like that Yeshiva in Monsey that has an officially supported band. But it’s an outlet that is encouraged both implicitly, by having a dedicated area of the dining room for it, and explicitly, when the boys are asked to play at Mechina events. Contrast that with a high school that I went to, where the yeshiva would not allow any musical instruments, and we would get frequent shmoozen about how terrible it is that yidden could hire goyim to play at their simchos.
