Any A2ers into brass bands?

I've always been musical although not a brass player (I sing with a chamber choir), and one of my favourite ever films is Brassed Off. I enjoyed this performance, especially the Balkan Dance with the 7/8 section in the middle - many thanks for posting :)

PS I also ride a bit ... normally only when it's nice outside though ;)

The judge at Preston is a friend of mine, and the Whit Friday contests were all filmed in a 300 yard radius in Delph village where I used to live.
 
My next door neighbour is part of the Corey band, I think his practising is a fair swap for my angle grinder and mallet noises from the garage.
I think my various neighbours over the years must be saints putting up with practice so regularly!

Hi Steve ... I'm sure you're already aware ... Cory currently is ranked number one in the World Bass Band Rankings, I had a picture taken with one of their star players in Switzerland in May this year ... do you mind if I ask who your neighbour is, I could work it out if you just give me the initials and maybe what instrument they play??

I'm happy to give almost all my details to forum members, but it wouldn't be right for me to do the same for a neighbour without his permission.

No bother Steve .... just interested as everyone has met everyone else in the brass band community ... next time I'm back stage at a contest I can ask who has a noisy neighbour with a selection of A2's ;)
