The second season of the hit comedy series "I'm In The Band" commences with a special one hour episode featuring guest star NFL Hall of Famer Jerry Rice on MONDAY, JANUARY 17 (7:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney XD. Starring are Logan Miller, Steve Valentine, Greg Baker, Stephen Full and Caitlyn Taylor Love.

Leading up to the premiere, DisneyXD.com will launch a new Olympic-style game, "Rock-On-A-Thon," where users can help Iron Weasel compete in events to prove their ultimate "rock worthiness," and on Monday, January 17 kids can create their own custom Iron Weasel music videos.

The schedule for MONDAY, JANUARY 17 is as follows:

"Pair Of Kings" (6:30 - 7:00 p.m., ET/PT)

"The Bite Stuff" - Feeling homesick, Boomer and Brady call Aunt Nancy and Uncle Bill to check in, but accidentally end up scaring them with their tales of Tarantula people, quicksand and giant bugs. While Aunt Nancy and Uncle Bill rush to the island to bring the twins back to Chicago, Brady is accidently stung by a dangerous Waka Waka bug. With the help of Mason and Mikayla, the kings must hide Brady's strange side effects, including pumpkin head and amnesia, in order to prove that the island is safe enough for the kings to stay and rule.

"I'm In The Band" (7:00 - 8:00 p.m., ET/PT)

"I'm Out of the Band" - Tripp joins arch-rival rock band "Metal Wolf," leaving the guys in a panic to get him back. Derek, Ash and Burger try to lure Tripp back during "Metal Wolf's" performance at a championship football game with a little help from Jerry Rice, and wind up stealing the spotlight.
