There was the Bollywood Brass band, a mad band from England. It is quite a big band playing mainly Indian music in a breathtaking brass version with a wild performance. The audience was simply blown away by this party music...

...the Bollywood Brass Band (complete with drummers from the Dhol Foundation), who proved so popular with the audience everywhere they appeared that they hopelessly sold out of CDs, leaving many would-be purchasers disappointed. I particularly enjoyed their unamplified performance on one of the small stages in the town centre's main pedestrian road, where they caused a massive "traffic" jam and even attracted a handful of local residents to their windows overlooking the street.
