What do you think about playing an Individual or Section Leader in your favorite band? Have you ever thought about it? Some of these costumes are about $2000 US...would it be worth the cost? ..And just who would you get to design your fabulous Queens Park Savannah section leader debut?

...Or are you more of a "less is more - just give me a thong, some beads and a feather" kinda person?

Growing up I remember always wanting to play an individual. Not to sure though if it's something I'll do as I'm older. Too much stress making sure that the costumes moves right and then if it's too heavy. I know the guy that played Tribe's King last year and he look like he was having a hard time with that costume. Earl was sweating buckets of water ,so I'm not sure if I'll do it. Price doesn't matter though if it's a nice costume and something that you really want to do.

I think he had on a black body suit with greenish/blue wings attached. I can't exactly remember. His costume was the one entered in competition I think. Oh, Earl has dreads, so I don't think it was him.

I was looking at the Individual costumes, very nice. $2000 doesn't seem bad for one of a kind mas. Hell peeps paying $1K to be NP frontline. I would do it. (If I wasn't already in love with another costume.)

Does that include a personal on the road servant to fetch my drinks and water for me?

Girl... most folks pay anywhere from $1000 to $2500 for an individual costume... and a lot more for King and Queen. Some people get sponsors, but that always comes with a crap load of strings...

Most times tho you don't have to wear the entire costume unless you're crossing a judging point...unless you really want to. The band usually provides some form of transportation for you so that you don't have to have it on all the time.

TriniEx... I'm with you girl. I think I'd love to play an Individual at some point. Maybe next year with Tribe. Who knows...

Tribe's King was Curtis Eustace. He won King of Carnival with his costume War Chant.

He's the bald red man on the left.

Well they start at $950, but go up to $2250. I'm thinking of playing in one of the individual costumes, but I dunno...maybe I should wait until next year. I'm really feeling the Glistening and Jewel... Well, I'm gonna give myself until next week to figure out if I'm really ready to step into the Mama of Frontline HO's costume.

Now, I doh know about having yuh own personal road servant...

...but they do have personal assistants to help the Section Leaders while they're on the road... dunno if they gonna go fetch me no water tho...
