That is true! And I suppose that the difference in popularity (or "demand")
between brass bands and football amongst the general public accounts for the
difference in "wages" paid to players (i.e. cornet players getting hundreds
of pounds per year; footballers getting thousands of pounds per week).

I wonder if the value of Brighouse or YBS on the stock exchange will ever
top One Billion pounds? Mmm.  :o)
