Oom-Pah Band

[warfelg]

Geez, the largest mouthpiece to a reed and back - not envious at all

I’m a percussion. I don’t have those same problems.
But I know it’s like maxing out your biceps on curls then trying to pick up a piece of lint that feels like a 2 ton AMCE anvil.

The band has more than doubled in size. Nice to see.

That looks like the one that usually plays outside in Rhinefeld. They have the same costumes and number of players, so I assume it’s them. Were they playing the music from This is Oktoberfest? If so, it’s the Rhinefeld show being performed in Das Festhaus. I don’t know if it’s temporary or not.

Definitely the Rhinefield guys.
For comparison:

Hooray for live music reminiscent of the glory days before AB divested the parks!

 

[RollyCoaster]

I found out that the Rhinefield folks alternate through the day in Das Festhaus. Also good news in my opinion, the 6 person Oompah Band now plays German music the entire show! No more of the pop and rock stuff after the first 2 numbers. Enjoy it so much more now!

So glad Oompah Band is still going during Beirfest (I mean, makes perfect sense, but wasn't sure it would be.)

So, this show has come back for the 2025 season. I'm glad that it's this show that's taken the place of "OktoberZest", basically a small scale and slightly shorter "This is Oktoberfest". Which is far better than nothing.
