These sound trucks crawled through the streets of Port of Spain. At Victoria Square, members of the Lost Tribe carnival band put finishing touches on their costumes by securing capes, backpacks made of drapery, and enormous swarms of butterflies. The vibrant sounds of soca and calypso were heard all around the capital city. If there is any noise in the background, it is likely coming from music trucks that are parked on the Avenue. "Welcome to carnival," says Valmiki Maharaj, the creative director of the Lost Tribe as well as the bandleader for their performances. He claims to be everything from "head cook" to "bottle washer" in addition to being a designer, editor, strategist, and visionary. The carnival held in Trinidad and Tobago is the largest one held anywhere in the Caribbean. A simple practice evolved into an alluring rite that brings people back to their homeland, and the clothing that people wear is at the center of this spectacular show. "We're a strange mix of costuming, performance, entertainment, and party, all in the same thing," says Maharaj, who is 37 and hails from Barataria, a borough located 20 minutes east of Port of Spain. "We're a strange mix of costuming, performance, entertainment, and party," he adds.
