When the Saints Go Marching Into Dupont Circle
Yesterday I had the chance to spend a few hours walking through Washington DC, visiting some of my old haunts. Dupont Circle is as wonderful as ever, particularly since the local brass band was out in force. On weekends during the summer, these dozen or so jazz musicians perform an impromptu concert on the northern side of the circle. You never know who will stop and listen, but typically it's a combination of tourists, locals, embassy officials and the occasional homeless person. Yesterday was no different. I've probably seen these guys perform dozens of times over the years, but I think this was the first time I sat down to listen. They're not the best brass band in the world, but they sure are a lot of fun. Have a listen. -andy
