No BS! Brass “Busking in the USA” Tour

Dean Christesen — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 19:28:00 +0000

No BS! takes off today for an extended weekend of busking. Of any ensemble, I see no group more suitable to busk (Richmond Marching Band makes a fine busker, though). The very nature and history of brass bands allows, nay commands, them to exist outside the walls of a concert hall or club without question. I'm not saying they won't turn heads in Times Square, but you get my point.
