Band Launch Review: Mascots International

One of my fav bands was launching on Saturday night and since it is right next door to my house I made all attempts to be there. I am in love with Mascots International. I think they epitomize what MY ideal band is, especially for Miami Carnival. A cute costume with not too much frills, food, and a lot of vibes and drinks. Perfect. Please remember I am not a costume with frills person.

Mascots presented "Once upon a Time" at Studio 5 Ten on Saturday. I wish someone had told me though to go there in my bra and panty instead. It was HOT!!!! My first time at the venue and after getting word that the costumes were going on around 1am I left my house at 1 and walked in and almost passed out. IT WAS HOT!! If it wasn't for the music and the drinks and finding a fan in the corner and that everybody was partying I would have passed out.

At about 130 out of the blue I saw a headpiece on stage, I was unable to find space at the front of the stage so was only able to see costumes after they exited.

Mascots has 4 sections for their 2013 presentation. On Saturday they presented 3 sections and their 4th section, Atlantis, is going to come from a new addition to their family but some veteran leaders the De Gannes.

City of Gold:



Agrabba (Based on Aladdin)



Color of the Wind:



Siren:



Siren (FL) is the winner for me so far out of the sections. I felt like City of Gold wasn't a finished of a product as the other sections. Agrabba is in second place by .5.




Mascots' mascamp is: 7321 NW 45 Court, Lauderhill,, 33319 and they are open

Section Hightlight: Flamingo Casino Mas Miami

After a 2 year absence from Carnival, Flamingo Casino Mas Miami returns this year with a new look and a Special Section "REVIVAL", in Xtasy Mas Band and their presentation of "NEW BEGINNINGS".  
REVIVAL is a reawakening of the mind, body and soul. The start of a new journey, a New Beginning.
Flamingo Casino Mas Miami was born from the band Vibrationzz in 2009, much like Tribe from Poison in Trinidad.
The section in the Vegas themed band was called Flamingo Casino and the name stuck and became the Mas group we know of today. Operated solely by Rhonda Berment, she continues to design and work closely with Christine Sadler of Trinidad, one of the most well respected designers and producers of mas.
Look for the Special Section "REVIVAL" on the road October 13th, in Xtasy Mas Band!

Miami Carnival Band Launch

I was extremely excited to get to the launch on Saturday. The opportunity to see all bands (launched or not) was enough for any carnival jumbie. I got there around 10pm and some tents were not even setup yet. Eventually bands were coming in and setting up as it got later. I found that a bit disappointing especially for people who came there early trying to see all bands to pick from.

At around 12 there was finally some movement around the stage to see display of costumes. I must say EVERY band has stepped up their game. Their are some really really good costumes being presented. I couldn't stay until the end due to me not feeling well but walking out I was able to see the full lineup of bands. I cannot say there was a band who was a total flop. I see people having to make some hard decisions as to what costumes to choose and which band to play with. It may very well have to come down to loyalty or where your group wants to play.

I know this is going to be a great Miami Carnival with costumes, now for MBOC to make it a great road/track/parking lot experience.
