New York Times variety puzzle solution: July 7, 2013

Below the fold is the solution to this week's New York Times variety puzzle: Marching Bands by Brendan Emmett Quigley.  For your convenience, I've used colors to distinguish the two answers in each row, put in bars to separate the Band answers.

Now that you're done with this one, why not try one of the other interesting variety puzzles linked in this weekend's Sunday Brunch?  Then come back every weekend for more puzzles and commentary, and on Thursdays for the cryptic crosswords from The Nation.
