Thanks to "Drumroll: SWD," his new original series on Peachtree TV, producer Dallas Austin has found a way to reunite members of Southwest DeKalb High School's Marching Panthers and members of Clark Atlanta University's Marching Panthers on screen again in the Dec. 18 episode.

The two bands originally were featured together in "Drumline," Austin's 2002 shot -in-Atlanta feature film.

We're told that episode will follow SWD band members Keonta Hammond and Eric "Bobo" Barkley as they travel to the CAU campus, a school both are considering as a college option. While there, SWD band director James Seda and CAU band director James L. Camp arrange an exhibition between the two bands' drumlines. The goal: to give the SWD high schoolers a chance to see what real nerve-wracking, drumstickdropping college competition is aU about.

"Clark Atlanta University is always seeking innovative ways to market the school to prospective students and parents," explains CAU president Walter D. Broadnax in an e-mailed statement to Buzz. "We're very pleased to be working with Peachtree TV on this initiative."

CAU will also be prominently featured in the show's on-air promo spots.

The increasingly addictive reality series (think MTV's "The Hills" but with smarter, motivated and talented young people...) on the newest channel launched by Atlanta based Turner airs at 8 p.m. Tuesdays.
