Is this a legit "Chav band"
or are they just dressing that way satirically? I checked your band Facepalm page - so you basically get together for one parade in a year?

It's a scratch band I think - at least I hope it is.
RNCM - Royal Northern College of Music students according to the comments on the book of face Whit Friday Marches is a competition held once a year on Whit Friday would you believe? I don't think Chav Brass won any prizes.

Not sure satire is the right word for upper middle class people dressing up as working class people.
I'd go with ridicule, classism or snobbery, but then I am a communist nazi jew loving SJW.

You don't know any RNCM students do you?
plenty are working class, especially the brass players

I don't.
I fully admit I am being prejudiced by assuming that music colleges are attended chiefly by the well to do classes. However I've seen more than my fair share of colleges of music (Leeds Uni, RCM in London, Brum Conservatoire). I didn't notice a lot of regional accents at such places. People used a lot of consonants when they laughed. Copies of Wodehouse being passed around. I am not exaggerating.
I am certain that there are even fewer working class people represented at such places now (based on the falling numbers of WC/'LPN' university admissions).
Not sure what your link is supposed to illustrate. Are we guessing class based on surnames? If so, there are not many Smiths, Joneses, Owenses, etc, compared to the Stockhausens, de Waals, Barbers, Thorntons, Websters, and so on.
