OK, allyuh know I have cannot hand you all the information as I get it since I don't want anyone suing me for libel (laugh) anyway read between the lines of this one:
Sources have reported that a once spurned designer, extracted from a popular band without being able to find another nest to roost is now the brainchild behind bringing their OWN band to "Spice" up 2009 Carnival!!
That may explain why this designer has just returned from China, hopefully no fur will be flying come Carnival 2009! Other names involved in this new band for Carnival 2009 include one half of a soca duo who has a history of heading a section in mas bands Barbarossa and Poison, as well as his girl friend who shares the same surname as one particular beauty queen maker who is also involved in making mas of his own! The other two names rounding out the band have been linked to marketing a popular brand of bottled water and managing one of the biggest venues for band launches, weddings and parties in Trinidad.
And that is all I have to say about that!

LMAO Saucy...the attack of the furry bamsee.
When all these bands come out and everybody getting a chance to play mas...Who going to WATCH de mas?
Well look at ting!!!!!
Oh GOD!!! NO! Ok OK. I HAVE to tell what I was told to me DIRECTLY from the horse's mouth right. Because this news here is just tooo much. Now, talkin to The Furry One herself, I was told that she was "tired" of the carnival thing, and that she needed to take a "rest". Now, I had already known about the dismissal from TRIBE eh, but I was just listening nah. Keeping quiet to get more info. Now this conversation was in March eh. Anyhoo, so she continued to tell me that she wanted to concentrate on her "business", which is private dressing, wardrobe consulting that kinda thing. So right! Now she tell me she go still be playin in TRIBE. Just "resting" from designing. Now, it SEEMS like between March and May, so like two months, it gone from taking a rest to taking a PLUNGE! Papayo! PLUS, dont forget the "Rocky One" say he want uptown people in he band. I just HAD to share because this news here really catch me offguard. Some people doh have NO shame. I woulda at least take a year off before jumpin back into the mix after that furry scandal.
Lawd-O!!
wow...playing mas in trinidad is like shopping in an american mall, so many stores for different types of people and money to burn! good luck to this newbie!
bottled water. whew...
saucy, remember i once told you that a big BUSINESSAN was rumoured to be in a band and that he had a tie-in to TRIVE in the past...
well you just got your info!
glad to know that my tips were on the ball.
i suspect that one designer ousted from TRIBE whose sister is still involved in that band may be in THIS particular band...
LOL quiksilver I was hearing the name being linked to a band but did not get the whole story till today :)
But it confuses me that everyone suddenly wants to bring out a Band. Do they realise that bringing out a Band is not the same as throwing a fete???? Is bringing out a Band the "in thing" now? Well is real bachannal for 2009!!! We will surely be hearing some horror stories.
Pardon meh French eh but what de Francis Fashions is "uptown people" now?
When dey was with Barbarossa/Poison, they wasn't looking for no "uptown people".
I hope they pay off all the people they owe from dem past years before they bring out dey band!
With they damn one hit wonder self...
“….. under the banner of Galvanize with Marlon, Tisha and Wyatt in alliance with Rocky when they brought a very popular special section in Barbarossa. At the moment I cannot remember the name of the costume but Sandra Hordatt was the designer and Leasel Rovedas was photographed wearing the costume which made the front page of the Express Carnival magazine that year…………………..After that first foray into mas the trio split, Rocky remained with Barbarossa and eventually migrated to Poison, Galvanize went to Poison and are now a part of Island People and Darlene also went to Poison and is rumored to be bringing a section with Pulse 8 for 2008…..”

NOW this is what I have concluded-correct me if wrong eh allyuh:
Wyatt- is @ IP
Sandra hordatt- AKA cage bra girl WAS @ IP rumored to be going somewhere- is it to the lost ones- or is it back with her old pals in this new “mystery uptown band”
Leasel- aka – furry bamsee WAS @ TRIBE – got the boot and is rumored to be heading uptown???
Rocky- WAS @ BARBAROSSA- with the aforementioned persons.
I eh know Rocky biz like that- so I have no clue who his gf is.
sexy-t darling most of your info is almost right but i must correct you on the Sandra Hordatt part she is not in the up-town band,and "cage bra" lol no ......doh be on my girl so nah! those bras are hotttt and they have made quite an impact, so cal her Sandi or sexy-bra nah , please!
oh and saucy i have a good ? for you to try and answer.
WHO ARE THE NEW WOW FACTOR GUYS @ IP? where are all of the fab headpieces and backpacks coming from?
lol .... ah lil bit ah trivia?
Richard I thought u mentioned before that you do headpieces and backpacks? lol You trying to trick me!!! So, you work on my costume yet?
they are FABBBBBBBBBBBB!!!!! OH MY GOSH! BUT SAUCY I TRYING TO NUDGE YOU TO SNOOP AND FIND OUT WHO DOING THE WOW FACTORS!
and not to mention the fab male costumes that we have become known for doing!
and do you not play with TRIBE?
hint hint......lol
lol Richard yuh have to excuse meh brain a minute here. came home from liming a lil while ago.. had too many rum and cokes :)
Ok, is it Douglas?
STUPESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ...NO!
MR. ONE STYLE!
Why you boufing me Richard LOL.. ok I doh think is Harry! Is it Harry??
NO SAUCE, i not boufing sorry!
check yuh in-box
OMG....explain this.. (1)Because i played with one particular band for a couple of years means i am obligated to them for the rest of my life??? (Never remember signing a contract...signed up...no contract)...
(2) Why cant we support and wish the best of luck to those that decide to take such a large step in bringing out there own band, making there own money instead of support others for the rest of their lives???
(3)Never remember reading in the news paper that anyone from any carnival band was held up at gun point and forced to join or leave any particular band
(4) Think u guys people dont leave and go else where for nuttin...there is something attracting them there...maybe better pay, more appreciation, more of a family feeling u never know so dont jump to conclusions.
chris632, mawnin!! sweetie you can play with ANY band you choose and for 2009 you will have plenty choice!
Over my lifetime I have played with four different bands with adult mas so sometimes you find a band that fits and you stick with it;can't blame people who like a lil comfort zone and know what to expect. But as with time and life everything changes!
And some of the conclusions drawn are based on fact... shhh ..lol.
ooh lawdddddddddddddd...LMFAOOOOOOOO well YES!!!
