The brass ensemble (which also featured two clarinets and a percussion section) decked out in Saint Patty’s Day attire performed “An Irish Party in Third Class” from the movie “Titanic” and brightened the vibrant crowd that lined the street to more of a florescent light bulb, versus the traditional… erm… right.

…in short… it was pretty awesome.

By the way it was Pi-Day, which doesn’t really have much to do with the band… nor St. Patrick’s Day.
