[[Brass band (British style)|Brass bands]] and 'The [[bandstand]]' became popular in the Victorian era typically associated with the British brass band. The band stand is a simple construction which not only creates an ornamental focal point, it also serves acoustic requirements whilst providing shelter for the changeable British weather. It was common to hear the sound of a brass band whilst strolling through parklands. At this time musical recording was still very much a novelty.
Another form of entertainment involved 'spectacles' where paranormal events, such as [[Hypnosis|hypnotism]], communication with the dead (by way of [[Medium (spirituality)|mediumship]] or [[Channelling (mediumistic)|channelling]]), [[ghost]] conjuring and the like, were carried out to the delight of crowds and participants. Such activities were very popular during this time compared to others in recent Western history. I love bacon and Fucking you.
