EAMB have been an SF institution for some time now. I remember around '00-'02 they would often cruise raves and parties and warehouse spaces and march in, blast over whatever was playing, get the crowd riled up, and then march off to the next place. They were Cell Space regulars. They are fun and I'd say that the unrehearsed aspect is by design and very related to alcohol consumption ;)
They do their think on the playa and have as long as I've gone. They do participatory marches where random people will join the line and improvise.
yse! the first time i saw them, actually, was completely by accident. there were rumors of a Bjork DJ set at.. the stud bar? can't remember. so i was there, with a ton of other people, and we were all just waiting around to see if Bjork would show up, when suddenly this insane marching band just invades the place and the crowd went crazy for them. i thought they were with Bjork at first, and i was like man, i wish i had my own personal marching band preceding me wherever i go!
bjork did eventually show up and DJ, but honestly i think extra action was the hilight of the night, at least for me.
