Carnival Revolution launched their 2013 presentation Home for Carnival tonight after 1 a.m. at Santa Roza.
The theme of their presentation drew on different carnivals. They had sections representing Barbados, Rio, Trinidad, Guyana and St. Vincent.
St. Vincent
Barbados
Rio
Trinidad
Guyana
They didn't skimp on their costumes with some of their back lines offering larger head pieces and collars than some front lines in other bands I have seen.
Their bandleader Osei Brand reminded us that they didn't make it onto the road last year (due to poor crowd control / logistics.) so they've been waiting 2 years for the road. We really hope that with fewer bands participating this year, that everyone gets to make it onto the Lakeshore.
