In true Generation X form of just dropping names on costumes, they have launched for Miami Carnival 2018. Maybe I am getting carnival tired but costumes lately have not been wowing me to the extent that I feel compelled to be a reveler. (must be ole age) and that goes for all bands that I have seen, not just GenX.
In the past you would look at a costume and based off their portrayal, you would see what the designer or band leader was trying to portray, the costumes should or would tell a story. I ent seeing what the portrayal/the story is for this one eh, but I digress eh, cause dis is mas! I should say the pics don’t do it justice, cause it looks a little dull here but even if you see the original I am still not getting the story and where this screams Evolution.
Brazilia

On a side note, 2 years ago, a Section leader costume was $845 and this year it is $895. $50 difference, some other mas bands need to take note of this! But I also noted that there was a $400 difference between backline and frontline, just to lime in a parking lot, avoytay tun (I really getting old in trute).
I gone!
