These are two members of the To Be Continued Brass Band standing infront of the Footlocker on the corner of Canal & Bourbon in the city of New Orleans Louisiana where the band plays nightly. Everytime you visit N.O, This is the band you'll see in the CBD. To the the left is Chris, Also known as Tree Frog which was his crab name at Southern University. To The Right is Glen, he was a member of the Miles College Purple Marching Machine. ..... I cought them off guard while they both were looking at my Ole'Lady. Both of them are G.W. Carver High Shool Graduates.
.. When the band first got together it was in 2001 Glen & his cousin Darren were at JFK High... They'd Practice Their tunes in my hood (where they live) before they perform anywhere .. They used to have a trumpet, a mellophone & a bucket just playing outside of the New Orleans Fairgrounds durring Jazz Fest ..lol Eventually they got enough members & instruments to have a full Brass band . They used to do events for free, untill folks offered to pay them. Now they do all kinds of gigs in the city . Weddings, Funerals, Partys, Family Reunions. & everything else, they were even shown on TV durring the Sugarbowl.
...To Be Continued Brass band .. Real Nice ....Come to N.O and Drop a dollar in The Box :) ..YEAH!
