Someone needs to revoke or deactivate
KAI BARRAT's TLC card, YES I am putting you on FULL BLAST for taking money from people to use your NON TRANSFERABLE TLC CARD!!!
Unbelievable, and to think the TLC card DOES NOT guarantee you a costume!
I wonder if that price includes her going to Cascadia and standing in line to register you as well? steups!
EDITED TO ADD:
The ad from Kai Barrat with the TLC card for sale has disappeared. Thank goodness someone came to their senses and took it down!

“The fun has just begun”
What is Carnival without BACCHANAL??? Is a who say he say she say drama ensuing over the alleged stealing of costume designs!!!
One cheeky band leader who has always gotten a special section creation from a certain designer for the Universe is claiming that a little bird was stolen from HER!! Apparently , according to how I heard it, the original design from this designer is now sitting somewhere in China and the last minute replacement which has turned out to be a HIT among potential masqueraders, is now the cause of some contention over who it originally belonged to; where is the LOVE people?? I really want to see who is going to be suing WHO over some beads especially since the designer OWNS the design right; where the band leader comes in making claims on someone else's creativity is beyond me!! Like really, it is even funnier as rumour has it some other designer was suing Ms Lady already???? Hmmmm
Added to that is that one Heavenly body is claiming that their design was stolen as well!! Story goes that certain designers formerly affiliated with that band, saw the blazing headpiece design before making their exit, and it as now turned up in another band.. kiss kiss!!
And so the Carnival world turns.. never a day goes by without some daily dose of drama!
Tribe Registration at Rosalino Street- August 2005
What Lies Beneath
This one is a MUST read,
Carnival Jumbie could not have said it ANY better if the words had come from my own mouth *applause*. Take a read of Carnival Jumbie's blog
www.carnivaljumbie.blogspot.com the topic of the day
"Tribe Registration 2k9- Who's In with the In Crowd".As I expressed to Carnival Jumbie last night, there can be as many rumors or people stating as fact that pre-registration has begun, this is not the first year rumors have been circulating stating that, people complain every year about it. But I know we can surely expect that at least ONE costume will be available in the popular sections when registration starts, right?? TRIBE has never slapped a SOLD OUT sign on any section when registration begins.
So, if I know I want that ONE costume that might be still remaining in THAT section that I want complaining won't do me much good!!! For the past three years I have been present front and center for registration, apart from the 2005 Fiasco, I have been in the top 10 of arrivals at Cascadia. The luxury of sleeping in my bed and bouncing in there at 10 o clock does not apply! THE EARLY BIRD CATCHES THE WORM! If you are overseas and online plant yourself in front that PC and click refresh until you get carpal tunnel syndrome; when registration opens you will be the first to know and hopefully the quickest to input your data!
People, you know where you have to be come Saturday and what you need to do. If this is way too much drama and hassle to get into a Carnival band for you, there are several bands already launched and open for business where you can leisurely stroll in and select a costume without fighting any crowds! Not to mention there are bands still to launch! The panic, anxiety and unnecessary drama is just way too much hype, and it is mostly the people without TLC cards stressing out themselves to the point of mania! People seem to forget that TRIBE is NOT the only band in Trinidad and Tobago, and that they definitely won't die if they don't get in!
