The One More
Time Around Again Marching Band presented by Standard TV &
Appliance (aka the OMTAAMB) is comprised of more than 500 marching
band fanatics who don't know when to quit! Members range
in age from their teens to their 80s and have all marched at some
point in their life. Listen for the OMTAAMB in June as they march
through the streets of Portland in the Portland Rose Festival
Grand Floral Parade and
Starlight Parade.
The OMTAAMB
is believed to be the largest permanent marching band in the world. The
band made its debut in 1985, when it was formed to march in the
Portland Rose Festival Starlight Parade. In its inaugural
year, the band featured about 75 members, many of whom are
still in the band today!
