Question Poison section order?

When does the order of the sections get decided and what influences the order e.g section size etc?

Certain "Big Guns" run early in the line up of the band...Sonia Mack (usually 1st), Pleasures, Island Events...even Breakaway tend to get placement up in the front.....

Truthfully I think the less popular the "section" or the more "unattractive"...(matter of perception) the costume it tends to end up further toward the BACK of the band

It also depends on who is playing in the section for example the President is in Waikiki though the female costume is not great looking it will be in the front because of the president.

It's really hard to say. Most of the bigger more popular sections end up toward the front or in the center.

Last year I believe the people who brought Golden CockFight did Jump up and kiss me and that was in the middle if I remember correctly.

Galvanize was I think twenty-one or so...out of 36. I don't even know when you figure out your order.

I have heard that there will be 15 music trucks in addition to 42 sections, countless drink trucks and the pee pee truck...Poison is like a Carnival in itself.

Try sending an email to Poison about section order later in the season and see what they say...mascamp@poison.co.tt
