My question is, why don't band leaders come together and lobby the Government for the return of a stage since this is what masqueraders want. And if the Government refuses why don't band leaders come together and build their own stage?
exzcellent question, ms. jade!!!
To Band Leader:
1.How important is it to win the title of band of year?
2.Do you think that bands who win titles use that to their advantage to get costume manufacturing jobs outside of Trinidad?
3.With the system of judging where bands have to go to more than one venue to qualify for band of the year do you think this is unfair since bands with "inferior" costumes that go to all the judging points win over bands with much better costumes that do not go to all the judging points for whatever reason (congestion, time issues etc).
My question is, why must overseas masqueraders pay in full? I personally do not think that this is fair. If your going to ask for a deposit from locals, why can't everyone pay a deposit.

I have a question, I am bringing my own section in a major band in Toronto Caribana next year please God. I there a factory that makes bathing suits in Trinidad or oveerseas, and a website where I can order beads, braids or pheasant feathers. I there a designing company or a particular person that designs costumes for overseas customers wanting to purchase these designs for a cost.
