#17 Bands!

I remember from the Orin Davenport Winter Dates, Mr. Evans commenting to my Father what an improvement this Band Stand was!
.....handy place to hang your underwear to dry as well!

Looks like a young Ramon Escorcia, sitting right in the middle.

Roger,
It sure looks like Ramon the 4th in that row.
The second on that row is R H Bubba Voss a great trumpet player from Orange, Texas and a long time circus friend of mine.
Also the top row the 3rd is Boom Boom Browning the best damn circus drummer ever and another long time circus friend thanks to Bubba Voss.
Also this is the 1955 band as Bubba was only there one year 1955.
I met Ramon Escorcia years later as he was one Sells and Gray playing the trumpet and backed up by records and had times changed by then on circus bands.
Gone are the days with a circus with real music.

Not quite gone Harry, Big Apple Circus still carries an eight piece band that provides wonderful live music for every show.
