Hungry March Band at FIAF Bastille Day Street Fair
Perhaps this particular set of photos should be called "The Hungry March Band Dancers (with occasional cameos by the actual band)". See, the band was hanging out under a tent while the dancers were toe-to-toe and sometimes arm-in-arm with the crowd. This worked beautifully, as always. I assume that's why they keep getting these festival gigs. Not only is the music peppy and fun but they have a way of drawing in even casual observers and getting them to dance.

Hungry March Band at Brooklyn Bowl
You have probably heard this band before. They seem to play every outdoor festival and block party. Even if you have managed to resist being drawn in by their catchy tunes you may have been swept into a dance, or conga line, or fairy ring, by one of the majorettes. Definitely one of those "instant party" brass bands. Probably why they get all those festival and block party gigs. I believe this is the first time I have ever seen them indoors!
