It was all for the Bag.
Stedson Red Plastic Bag Wiltshire took centre stage last Sunday evening when his hometown came out in full support of the monarch who has nine titles under his belt.
There was a sea of red dominating the soca beach party at Skeete’s Bay, St Philip, held in RPB’s honour.
Artistes who were scheduled to perform included RPB himself, Mr Dale, Adrian Clarke, Gorg, among others.
Hundreds turned out to honour Bag, who was dethroned this year in the Pic-O-De-Crop finals by the Mighty Gabby.
Sunday’s event was held under the patronage of MP Michael Lashley, who said he wanted to highlight not only Bag’s contribution to the national festival – Crop-Over – but also the attention he has brought to that parish.
RPB said he appreciated the initiative and was especially happy that it was organised by people in his parish.
• It was great getting Out and About all across Barbados, but today marks the sign-off for this column.
