Dear Dan,
I've read your commentary and you seem very knowledgeable about carnival. So here's my question:
What is your take on shoes for carnival? I haven't played in a
while and I want to be sexy; but I also know the burn of the feet at
5pm on Monday after de road. any ideas?
Sincerely,
Mehcorns Entsohot
Dear
Dan,
I come from a very religious family that does not condone participation of any
kind in Carnival. But I've always had a secret passion for
Carnival. I want to play mas and I want to go to fetes. I'm just so
scared to do anything...What should I do?
Sincerely,
Devoted to Boredom
Dear Dan,
I've been in a relationship with my American girlfriend for 4 years now. We live together in an apt in D.C. She's been to Trinidad with me a few times before, but never for Carnival. Next Year will be her first time. She knows that I have a lot of female friends back home and I've already explained that I'll most likely take a small wine with them when I see them in fetes or on the road. But I'm still worried that she won't be able to handle it and might get jealous...What should I do?
Sincerely,
Whinin’ bout Winin’
All of my friends will be playing mas in a popular all-inclusive band this year and I want to join them. The problem is there is no way I’ll be able to afford paying all that money to play with them. What should I do?
