I alway assumed that bandboxes were so named because of a thin strip (band) used to reinforce them. But then I have a friend who assumed that berriboned hats were so called because of the boning used in their construction like the boned corsets of the same era.
How small orchestra's became bands I don't know. Thinner sound???
