Happy Mother’s Day today and always.

For years I have been seeing people complain about the prices of costumes. Well, I think it is time for me to explain what you pay for.
Your payment goes into your :
costume
Seamstress
*** production company *** for those that outsource
Music truck/trucks
Generator/ generators
DJ/Dj’s
Air fare ( if Dj’s are from out of town)
Hotel ( if DJ is from out of town)
Food
Drinks
**Extras **
Goodie Bag and the contents inside.
Most Troupe/Bands do not get monetary sponsors these days. However, the sponsors that we do get usually will only offer trinkets for the goodie bags
These cost can be very high for most bands . There is usually no monetary gain that the bands/troupe makes. Also, this is just a brief break down . There are other factors and cost that each band/troupes might provide that is not in this break down.

To own a mas band/troupe is not a way to get rich. We do this for the love of our culture. We do this because we want to share our love with everyone no matter where you was born. It’s not about fame! Those that get into this business for monetary gain or for anything else, quickly learn the hard way.

** I am going to stop here with my post .. this is making me emotional ***

So many complaints about costumes not being done right ~ not fitting etc…It’s time to get back to having Mas camps . For those of us who know the craft of making carnival costumes , we need to start passing on that dieing trade. What is the reason for you hoarding the trade? Can you use it when you are dead? Teaching the basics of wire bending .. feathering .. jeweling etc… is not competition. China production (Temu style ) is not it. I have yet to see a back pack feathered or done right coming out of China. For those us that can teach and pass on the beauty of mas making, let’s do so.
