A few years ago, I talked the gang into doing local parades. We load up some sound equipment and a power system onto a u-haul flat bed and roll down the streets.
The Ironton,OH Memorial Day id the longest continuing parade in the USA. Over 15,000 people packed the streets. We rotated 3 songs (patriotic) Marine's Hym/Casson Go Rolling Along, (standard) When the Saints Go Marching In, and (blues)She Loves My Automobile (ZZ Top). We played non-stop for 1 hour through the town streets.
We were 5 harp players, 2 guitars, 1 bass and drums. It was an alright good day and good time.
