Japanese band drums up support for victims of tragedy
Students in the Green Band Assn., this year performing Michael Jackson music in the Rose Parade, get affirmation during their trip to the United States.

On the blacktop of an empty parking lot, brass instruments and moonwalking merge.
It is the day before Christmas and nearly 200 Japanese high school and college students sporting white fedoras strut outside Angel Stadium as they practice one of
Michael Jackson's greatest hits.
"Bad," coupled with slick dance moves, is likely to be a crowd-pleaser at Saturday's Rose Parade, but the nonprofit Green Band Assn. has a higher cause. Established in 1998, its mission is to instill confidence in Japanese youth as well as raise money for victims of natural disasters, even those as far from home as Southern California.

The word
fedora comes from the title of an 1882 play by
Victorien Sardou,
Fédora, written for
Sarah Bernhardt.
[2] The play was first performed in the U.S. in 1889. Bernhardt played Princess Fédora, the heroine of the play, and she wore a hat similar to what is now considered a fedora. The fedora became a female fashion which lasted into the early part of the twentieth century. When the fedora became a male fashion item, it was popular in cities for its stylishness, ability to protect the wearer's head from the wind and weather, and the fact that it could be rolled up when not in use. Since the early part of the 20th century, many
Haredi and other
Orthodox Jews have worn black fedoras and continue to this day.
[3] The hat is sometimes associated with
Prohibition,
Great Depression-era gangsters and the detectives who sought to bring them to justice. Popular stars in the 1950s such as
Gene Kelly wore fedoras often in their movies, like Singin' in the Rain. In
Hollywood movies of the 1940s, characters often wore a fedora, particularly when playing private detectives, gangsters, or other "tough guy" roles. A
trench coat was frequently part of the costume, a notable example being
Humphrey Bogart's character in
Casablanca. The fedora is widely recognized with the characters of
The Blues Brothers,
The Spirit,
Daisuke Jigen,
Freddy Krueger,
Dick Tracy,
Rorschach and especially
Indiana Jones. The fedora is also closely associated with
film noir characters.
A fedora that has been pinched at the front and is being worn pushed back on the head, with the front of the brim bent down over the eyes.
A
fedora (pronounced
/fɨˈdɔrə/) is a men's
felt hat that is creased lengthwise down the
crown and pinched in the front on both sides.
[1] The creasing does not define the hat, however. Fedoras can also be creased with teardrop crowns, diamond crowns, center dents, and others, and the positioning of pinches can vary if they are found at all. Early on, fedoras were sold open crown, meaning they were uncreased, with the owner creating his/her own crease manually. By the 1950s, hat makers started blocking the various creases into the hats when they were made. This is now the standard. The brim goes all the way around the crown and can be left raw edge, finished with a sewn overwelt or underwelt, bound with
grosgrain ribbon, or finished with a self-felted cavanagh edge. Traditionally, fedoras have grosgrain hat bands. A
trilby hat is similar to a fedora, but typically has a narrower brim, and the back of the brim is distinctively more sharply upturned as a result.
The term
fedora was in use as early as 1891. Originally a women's fashion into the 20th century, the fedora came into use in about 1919 as a men's middle-class clothing accessory. Its popularity soared, and eventually it eclipsed the similar-looking
Homburg by the 1920s. Fedoras can be found in nearly any color imaginable, but black, grey, tan, and brown are the most popular.
