Rock Bands With Horn Sections?

To me nothing kicks ass more than a rock band with a horn section, ex. Southside Johnny & The Jukes. What other rock bands might I enjoy that have a horn section?

Ronnie James plays a horn(Trumpet?) but not in Dio.

Dog Fashion Disco, but the horn section rarely travels with the band.

i was at this show, seeing the horns with the band was awsome. (i'm next to the girl with the sock puppet in the front row, and am seen very briefly towards the end, i'm in glasses

I don't know if you'd consider him "rock", but Prince's current band has a horn section. He's always used horns to some extent, but it was usually just a sax and trumpet (although Eric Leeds did periodically play flute on a couple songs). For the past few years now he has two saxes and a trombone. Interesting combination.

Phish had a horn section that went around with them for many shows called the Giant Country Horns, now when Trey tours he has a horn section most of the time (he has to for many of the songs)

I guess if you consider "ska" a type of rock, you could take any of those.

Reel Big Fish
No Doubt
Bosstones
Mr. Bungle (sorta)
Murder By Death

I want to say Sublime did as well, but I'm not for sure.

Isn't CAKE (as with many of the artists listed here) really just *one* horn?

When I think horn section, I'm thinking the Bosstones or Blood, Sweat, & Tears.

The newest Springsteen album has a horn section. I know Lyle Lovett has had a horn section the two times I've seen him live, but I can't recall if they appear on the albums.
