Description:
[October 24, 2006] There is a thing of consummate beauty and specialness in Portland called MarchFourth Marching Band.
MarchFourth is a 35-piece burlesque/carnival marching band featuring 15 horns, 10 percussionists, a bassist, six girls in slinky clothes who do sexy choreography, and four men on stilts who do acrobatics. The first half of the show was mostly a spectacle, but just before the intermission they invited the crowd closer, and it turned into a dance party. I don't tend to dance in public anymore (except to ska), because my dancing is big and ridiculous and I'm shy. Tonight, that went out the damn window.
Oh, and did I mention that they show up in random locations around Portland, in their own firetruck? And that they make all their own costumes, and their drum harnesses are made out of welded bicycle parts?
