Just wanted to lift this idea up onto the main page to see if we can get some actual coordination for this to happen during the “march” on Saturday (10/15). I think it would be work so well. And, if we can’t get a band, can we organize to play clown music really loud from a speaker alongside the really lonely insecure marchers?
UPDATE: I reached out to Honk Festival and Babam Band to see if there are any bands willing to do this. Will report back.
UPDATE 2: BABAM Band got back to me. They have another gig scheduled so can’t promise many musicians. I’ve reached out to Emperor Morton’s Stationary Marching Band. Playing this thing seemed up their alley.
UPDATE 3: So much interest which is awesome!! But, I’m taking time to reevaluate strategy/coordination so we can really make this happen and include as many people here as possible. Stay tuned!
A word about PP: Also, want to acknowledge that I hear folks who have concerns about a counter protest at PP. Thanks for sharing. Based on what’s been shared by folks and out of respect for PP and their clients, I think it’ll be important that whatever we do is coordinated to start at some distance from PP.
