Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2010 Music Performances
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a tradition that dates back to 1924. And a major part of that tradition is the musical acts that perform each and every year.
Believe it or not, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade was started because many of the immigrant workers at Macy's department store wanted to create a way to celebrate their new American heritage, namely the American holiday of Thanksgiving. In addition to the well-known balloons and floats, more than 44 million people tune in to their TV sets to watch live music and other performances by famous singers and bands, as well as college and high school marching bands, and the Radio City Rockettes. Not to mention the star of the parade, Santa Clause. So who is performing in the 2010 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
