Bliss Review # 5

Hi Saucy,

I would appreciate if you could post my Bliss Review

Costume Collection –
Costume collection was a breeze…I collected my costume two days after the designated day for my section. My hubby and I paid off early so we were entitled to fast track, we were in and out Carlton Savannah within 20 mins. During my costume collection I saw some glue marks on my hat, I asked for it to be swapped, that was done with no problem.

On the road –
I’m an early bird so we met the band on time on both days, they definitely left on scheduled time and I love that fact that we crossed stage early Monday and Tuesday. My only gripe is that I hate that 2-3 hour wait to cross the Savannah stage with no drinks but I understand this is no fault of bliss. Great fenced in park for the lunch stop with tents, blankets and a pampering station to freshen up. For 2012 it would nice to add a few extra tents since there’s not much trees to provide shade from the sun.

The food was decent, didn’t like the international options though, we got to the food tent pretty early and they were already out of fish, so I got rice and peas and chicken on both days, the hubby got bar b que, both options were very tasty. For breakfast on Tuesday there were some dishes listed on the food truck but was not available so I settled for bake and saltfish. For snack on Tuesday we got bake and shark, they had all the fixings in mini containers at the side, nice idea, tasted pretty good as well.

The wee wee trucks were maintained throughout the day, they were kept clean at all times.

Oh gosh…the security worked their behinds off; security was very tight; I saw them put numerous people out the band.

My drink of choice never ran out on both days, and that’s a big plus. Although on Monday at 11 am one truck didn’t have coconut water so I went to another truck that had. Music was on point, DJ private Ryan did a great job, I love the rotation of songs, usually when I play mas with other bands I would hear the road march song over and over again all day. It was a nice mix of power and groovy soca on the road. Last lap in Jenny’s car park was amazing; the DJ’s continued to play well.

My costume held up well, nothing fell off or apart, I usually wear my entire costume all day but I had to toss that hat after I crossed stage, the wire in the hat was uncomfortable and I also broke out from the fringe that was used on my bra.

There were definitely more positives than negatives, I had a blast on both days and I would absolutely play with Bliss again. I love the size of the band and I hope they can keep those numbers for 2012.

Thumbs up to Bliss!!!
