I want some reviews of the breakfast parties last year because if Machel is anything like it was last year i might skip it, get some beauty sleep instead, and go to one of those bfast fetes.

OK.. I know Rascalz promoted the other party last year, so since I didn't see their name of that flyer I figured they may be doing something again this year.

i'm looking forward being on the road, kinda sorta maybe thinking about playing mas with basementknokers (i used to be a breakaway girl until they stopped bringing and i never played mas since) but i dunno, i'm going to the launch this saturday to see what they're all about. if not, i'm gonna try mud this year...

i'm also looking forward to machel hd on saturday night. i may do shine/mawning neighbor (or whatever they calling it) bkfast fete on sunday (i wonder if they will have it right up the street from me like last year, that was ever so convenient, lol)

Why was I about to type the same thing. I was saying to myself I have never heard ANYONE say renown. I think it is always "renowned". And where did the "K" come from I don't even think the British spell it like that

LOL first I see Bunji and dem fete tba then reknowned and till now I en read the whole flyer.

STEUPS

I myself thought I may just have gotten used to 'American' English and had to look up the British spelling. That 'k' was nowhere to be found.

I cannot stand typos on a flyer.

Secluded or Taboo

Which fete was better last year: Secluded or Taboo?

I wish fete promotions would begin so we can know what is out there.

I have a few friends from Philly coming out.

I feel ya all this TBA is annoying.

Sometimes its the worst when its so many activities cuz crowds split up and nothing ends up being good.
The amount of mixed reviews I heard for each event I inquired about I still don't know what will get my money strictly offa reviews.
