I found these on 4br a few days ago, and wow that concert was awesome. Brass banding at its best, and probably the best video ever on Youtube!

howd do you get a 50 minute video on youtube?

If anyone is unsure just what the deal is with brass banding, start with the second video, sit back and prepare to listen to 50 minutes of very exciting, world class brass playing.
