It’s always a thrill for
La Banda Rossa to play at a brand new venue.
On September 7th
we were invited to perform a concert in Rome, NY, at the St. John’s Parish
picnic. They are blessed with a very large parking lot which accommodated
several large tents for a food buffet, entertainment, a children’s area, and
plenty of room for parking.
There was no charge for
the parishioners and the turn-out was amazing – it was as though every member
of the parish was in attendance.
We setup at the end of a
large tent – one of many that was filled with tables and chairs. As the crowd
sat enjoying their Sunday meal, we played everything from marches, polkas,
Italian classics to Glenn Miller.
The audience was delighted
and they loved the way our director, Arlene, conducts the band. One man made it
a point to tell us “I love watching her – she’s a show unto herself”.
It was a joy to watch and
play for this close family of parish members!
