San Lorenzo parade blocked by union picket line
San Lorenzo celebrated its 30th birthday with only the Blue Angels drill team performing as Musicians Union Local 530 staged a picket line over demands for a paid professional band. Three bands dropped out, including the Sixth Army Band, Weldonians, and a National Guard band, after money issues and union rules. Local leaders argued a paid band is required to show professional musicians are not deprived of work, while union officials say no such hire occurred and military rules limit interference.
