The Trumpets of Honk!

280/366

This past Saturday was the Honk! festival of street bands in Davis Square. It is one of the most fun of the many yearly events in my neighborhood, featuring 30+ activist street bands from around the country (and a few from other parts of the world). It is a great day of music and activity and draws big crowds. For some reason most of my best shots from this year ended up being of trumpet players, so here are the trumpets of Honk! For the main shot I picked one of the trumpeters from the Detroit Party Marching Band. In the comments are trumpet players from the Brass Liberation Orchestra and the Gora Gora Orkesta.
