What's all dis talk about Pleasures breakin away from Poison......

Pleasures can't breakaway from Poison just like any 'group' can't as you have to sign a 5-year agreement with Headley & Co....

The rumour I heard (from my sources ) is that Pleasures renewed their agreement.....

anudder ting... they can't increase their numbers w/o the permission of said Headley & Co. (which I seriously doubt would happen .....

so, yuh just have tu register as fast as you can....(say August,September)

Didn't really look around to see what else was going on in poison. tried inslandevents this year b/c all my cousins wanted to play with the section. I thought it was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay disorganized and I thought the security was totally overwhelmed. I also didn't appreciate having to run down the food truck on carnival Monday. had no place to jump when we were on the stage.... I just felt the section was a hot mess. Two years ago I played with islandevents and it was pretty organized. I think now it got too big.
My major gripe was with the music on the savanah stage leaving before we did!!: : :

with such a huge section didn't it occur to them to have an extra music truck?: :

in my section on monday it was somewhat disorganize, took for ever to find the drink truck (when found never left its side).. but the music at many times was unheard because the truck had to supply music to like five sections... anyone joined the band on monday, tuesday was a little better....in our section to my understanding the security personal was not provided with food, or even water, so i can understand them letting stragglers in... but i will not leave poison i love the fun.. next year i am in pleasures carnival section.... but all in all i had a great time and now thati have played mas.. there is nooooooooo going back to just watching from the outside

Too bad Poison doesn't have a forum for us to go on and post our greiviences(sp?).

Sad but true.... Poison will probably have 60 sections to accomodate all the people scrambling to get in.

Juss remember I have yuh plana$$ book if I see yuh in Peter Elias section. :p :p
