Honk Festival

Hey Bloggers, there's a Honk Festival going on this weekend somewhere in the Boston area in that country of America. I know because a friend who went there today with The Himalayas Marching Band says so. And in case you haven't heard, that Honk Festival at the Davis Square takes place each year and has what seems like a zillion marching bands from all around the world that march in its festival over the weekend. And there is a Honk Parade to reclaim the streets for horns, bikes and feet. And Honk! is also at Oktoberfest in Harvard Square and more.

And some of the bands and organizations marching and participating in this years festival are: Green Streets Initiative, the Open Air Circus, Bikes Not Bombs, the Boston Derby Dames, Veterans For Peace, Livable Streets Alliance, the Puppeteers Cooperative, Vermont’s Bread and Puppet Theater, Second Line Social Aid and Pleasure Society Brass_Band, Hungry March Band, Brass Liberation Orchestra, MarchFourth Marching Band, Rude Mechanical Orchestra, Himalayas, Titubanda, What Cheer? Brigade, Environmental Encroachment, Bread and Puppet Circus Band, Chaotic Insurrection Ensemble, Yellow Hat Band, Emperor Norton's Stationary Marching Band, Leftist Marching Band, Seed and Feed Marching Abominable, TriBattery Pops, The Scene Of The Crime Rovers, The Loyd Family Players, Brass Messengers, Original Big Seven Social Aid and Pleasure Club and more. And this festival rocks. Have a great marching band day.
