it's funny you say that... but I realize it's a mixture of just people's experiences, taste, and preferences and familiarity with a band... because for me I'm not so impressed with Tribe's costumes this year (and it's sad that people have to also make sidebars apologizing for any band they don't like, if you don't like it...that's your opinion and one should feel free to say so especially in CC) and a few other people I know as well has said the same, however my friends who are in Tribe LOVE their costume choices and it's no backing down. I respect that though because EVERYONE can't be in ALL DE SAME BANDS! lol Like I'm sure you LOVED your Fireman costume as much as I LOVED my Sacred Sand... and btw this statement is not directed towards you Dark & Lovely, but more so a thought that's been crossing my mind as I read some threads in here and just this fear of IP vs TRIBE war will begin.
