My homeboys in the TBC Brass Band marching in the Young Men Olympian second-line in New Orleans last Sunday, 9/23/12. Sadly, I couldn’t be there, but thanks to Big Red Cotton posting these clips on YouTube, I can experience a little bit of it.

Oakhaven vs. Mitchell @ J.P. Freeman Stadium, Memphis, 2012

I went out to J. P. Freeman Stadium Thursday night to catch the Oakhaven-Mitchell game, and I was impressed by the musicianship of both bands, but especially Oakhaven, a band I had not heard before. Their repertoire includes both traditional marches and current hits, and they play cleanly and in tune. Memphis TN, 9/27/12
