Many of us, at some in our lives, have paid our dues in marching bands. Marching down city streets with pounds of metal hanging around your neck, isn’t always a great deal of fun.<\/p>\n

Now how would you feel if you had to have a saxophone on<\/em> your shoulders? It seems that if you are a member of the Mortal Orchestra, that would be exactly how your marching career would look.<\/p>\n

Tim Green shot this photo on May 19, as the Mortal Orchestra was preparing for the Bradford Lord Mayor’s Parade.<\/p>\n

Along with a sax player, the orchestra has a clarinetist<\/a>\u2014who appears to play his instruments in a most unconventional way\u2014a euphonium player<\/a>; and something that looks like it could be a saxhorn<\/a>. I don’t know about you, but to me, these guys all look like refugees from a nuclear holocaust. \ud83d\ude2f<\/p>\n

Be sure to check out the rest of Green’s photos from the Bradford Lord Mayor’s Parade<\/a>. Some of the costumes he has photographed, are quite amazing.<\/p>\n
