As the sun settled down for the evening, the crowd geared up in anticipation of the 3rd International Moon Festival which is celebrated by multiple Asian nations, as parade participants warmed up for their multicultural show at the Flushing Mall car park in Queens. Organized by the Flushing Development Center, the festival previously carded for September 13, but cancelled probably due to concerns about inclement weather, was now underway exactly one week later on a glorious Saturday evening.

The Stars of Harlem Light Up the Night of the 34th Annual African American Day Parade As Harlem All Stars neared the end of the parade route the presence of the cops became more definitive, as they prepared for the surge of the steelband supporters headed their way. The pan lovers and supporters were determined to enjoy their steelband music to the last moment, but the NYPD was prepared for them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SWEET STEEL AT THE BROOKLYN MUSEUM
BASEMENT PRESS The sheer size of the bands was unmatched throughout the year. The bands, which had during the year peeked at around 30, rose to upwards of 100 members for the Panorama. Every band dressed and coordinated fully. Amazingly this is the only time during the year the steel orchestras would be at their complete capacity. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the competition was based on set design, Marsicans Steel Orchestra would have won that competition. Their rendition of Music In We Blood allowed the group lots of leeway in costume design. Marsicans chose to wear full doctor’s scrub attire including mask and footsies. They happily welcomed the audience to the “Marsicans Blood Center”. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
