Warrior Spirit Collection

I must say for the 600 rumored number of persons allegedly registered in Warrior Spirit the crowd collecting costumes yesterday was manageable. Maybe it is the time the hubbby and I went, which was three hours after costume distribution actually started, but the whole process took about half an hour total. Of course we were not in the fast track line so the wait for payment slowed things as well as the line up to collect your ID band and Food/Drinks Bands.



The soca music was playing a little louder yesterday and there were several persons collecting for other sections not listed to be distributed on that date having collected earlier in the week like Fireman, Midnight Robber and Dame Lorraine. My keen powers of observation also honed in on the hat for Dame Lorraine male which is no longer a top hat but looks as if it was squashed; it is much shorter than the original photos on the website. Also, to me, Warrior Spirit’s medium headpiece looks a tad smaller than I recall from the photos I took at the launch and the small headpiece only has two feathers! If I am not mistaken the small headpiece which is shown for Fancy Indian on the website has three feathers.

My hubby’s costume looks good though, basically exactly as it is shown in all the photos though he is yet to try it on as I think he might be coming down with the virus and was ill last night. His Goody Bag contained the following:



• Promotional flyers/coupons (for Marios etc)
• $10 discount voucher for sunblock,
• TRIBE CD Holder
• TRIBE key chain
• Heineken key chain
• TRIBE notebook
• A mini bottle of Ocean Spray juice
• A pack of Dixie crackers
• A cup
• A small zippered money case
• Lip Balm
• Senvia Bandana
• A Digicel flyer with cell phone and to get a $10 phone card when buying a phone

Or course he ate the crackers and drank the cranberry juice as soon as he left the building so that's why they are not in the photo above!

I would love to say that is the end of costume collection for me, but I have to make the journey again on Saturday!

Warrior Spirit

I was just looking through today's Express and saw this Digicel ad. featuring Destra in Warrior Spirit costume!

She looks very nice don't you think? While doing the roll call last night for which band people are playing with she mentioned that she might be playing with TRIBE but has not made up her mind as yet. I wonder if she plays if it will be in Warrior Spirit and as a spokeswoman for Digicel if it is a conflict of interest with her playing in Island People (which she did last year) seeing as that band is sponsored by B Mobile and Machel is their spokesperson.

The makeup looks good for those needing some inspiration for Warrior Spirit:
