Trinidad Carnival 2009 / platinum dancers in dream team

Wonderful!

I dont know what your talking about cUz Trinidad & Tobago Recognized As Island Of The Year a big part if that award is because of their carnival as well as the Caribbean's leading holiday destination. Trinidad carnival grew but it's still number one!

Trinidad's carnival is said to be number one. But it is no longer unique because there are no new characters being created. Nothing that really talks about what's going on in the society. that's what made it great before. now the majority of the bands are playing bikini and beads mas. But Brazil does that... and so does every other country that follows Trinidad's carnival aesthetic. Where are the new dances and rituals. I shouldn't be part of a band in which I didn't do the spiritual ritual.

really study Trinidad's carnival past... and re-enact in your mind at least... the struggle and the triumphs of our anscestors. Then you understand what Trinidad's masquerade is really about. You understand why the Trinity of Carnival has been lost. Then you will see why Trinidad's carnival is not greatest show on earth anymore. It's just one more show like the rest. It's time to revive it.... not accept what it has become.

wha t song this is?

i guess they should add more value to it now, rvive the old tradition. id still go anyway

why he get thumbs down for this?
she is haha

then where s the greatest show on earth now?

Where could the greatest show be? Everything is commercial. There's no more creativity. trinidad should've been producing new characters and mas dances. Instead, it looks just like Brazil. Besides the people who play ole mas... Carnival is not something a spectator looks forward to. I'm just generalizing... it's not personal. I just think Trinidad has much more to offer... being that Carnival was fought for with blood, sweat, and tears.

ohhh okay i gotcha.
