Bands rehearse for big day
Members of the Riverside City College All Star Band, in white, play with members of the Etiwanda High School Marching Eagle Regiment, both from California, as they rehearse for the New Year's Day Parade in central London.
Many of the marching bands that are due to take part in the parade have only just arrived in Britain following the recent storms in the eastern United States.
It will be the band's third appearance in the London New Year's Day Parade.
