Here's my man Pedro Varela, who was in Salvador da Bahia, explaining how Matthew Barney's trio eletrico was percieved:
It was criticized for being too "intellectual" and it
was, but at least it was different and it had a theme
about it (he paraded with hughe mud-covered tractors).
The sound was interesting and the fact that there is
room for "new" stuff is what I liked about it. I
thought this year the Salvador carnival was more
visual and hopefully it will get even more so fom now
on.
Well, you tell me. Is there any reason to be envious? Yeah, there probably is I mean when was the last time I mounted a trio-eletrico in Salvador ....
