Big Band Sendoff

The Rugby World Cup has rolled around again pretty quickly, and I was in Regents Park this afternoon for the Scrum In The Park event. The fans were able to see the England Rugby team training some lucky kids, there was a double-decker bus to sign with good wishes, and a Military Band provided the music to send off the team in stirring style. You can see more photos of the rugby-related stuff at rugbypix.com, but here are a few images of the colourful Busby-clad band.

[The Busbies Are Coming - the marching band approaches]

[Trombone Troupe - they have to keep their distance from the row in front!]

[Sargeant Sax - can he really see out from underneath that Busby?]

[Sargeant Trombone - it was a wonder they didn't get their trombone sliders tangled up with all the criss-cross marching]
