the genuine article?

is this genuine as opposed to an ironic anti-bae systems brass band?

if it's genuine we have truly unravelled as a society.

The brass band tradition is a noble one: the old brass bands, like the Salvation Army ones, used to rock into town blaring their horns and saying: wake up! there is more to life than money!

Maybe you don't like the God concept that went along with it.

But the battle is the same: do we treat each other as objects and exploit one another to make money, or do we live in peace and treat each other decently?

Time for better brass bands in my humble opinion!
