The foreday
morning or jouvert band Bakshun has revealed their 2012 presentation ‘We Gine Juve’
Lauched in 2010,
we have heard good things about the on the road experience in this band. Last
year Cockspur Beach Club was the base, and airbrushing was provided before
going on the road. They offer a discounted price for former revellers. We await
details of this year’s package, foreday is getting very competitive! Here are
their 6 sections.
Svedka Venus - $150 BDS |
Certainly a very 'out there' costume, loving the creativity in this one.
Kiss the Mist - $130.00 |
Now this I can definitely see myself in! Edgy, cute, AND sexy without being overly revealing. Where do I sign up?
Mardi Gras |
Love the t-shirts here, the design is something I wouldn't be ashamed to wear after jouvert. No huge obtrusive logo. Also the colours in this section are nice and girly.
Mardi Gras and all other sections are $100 BDS Returning members, and $120 BDS for New members.
Baje Foreday |
Anything in the Bajan colours is a thumbs up from me, love the use of bright colours in foreday costumes overall.
Mas Jouvert |
Hot an Spicy-this is also very nice! The diversity of colours to choose from in the female costumes is great.
All together now...
Jab Jabs - Male section |
Again, great use of colour! Not to mention a great design.
Bakshun launches to the public at Brewsters Road this Friday, expect them around 2am. They also have a new facebook page:
Their website is also up, although last year's details are still on there:
All of the bandleaders' contact info is on the site, and their contact email is: | |
Overall, a good presentation from this band. Foreday is really stepping up its game. Have yet to see another Carnival or festival jouvert bands that match Barbados' and Crop Over's own. Next up, Collision's Foreday Morning launch cruise this Friday 15 June.
