The true spirit of Crop-Over was in the air, when the GoalKeeper Bar on My Lords Hill, St Michael, launched their Free Soca Thursdays limes on Thursday evening.
Stiltmen and a shaggy bear blocked traffic in the usually busy area as they handed out flyers on the event, which will be continuing every Thursday, until August 5.
Sweet calypso tunes filled the air and residents flocked to see what was going on.
Owner of the bar, Antonio Waterman, said they decided to have the limes, as a way of bringing the community together.
“I’ve always heard my father talking about how they used to have street limes back in the day and how good they were, so we wanted to bring back that same concept,” he stated.
The limes, which run from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., will also incorporate various artistes over the next few weeks. Those attending will have the chance to be exposed to the costumes of the j’ouvert bands, and later those of the Kadooment bands.
People attending the launch were also feted to DJ music and live performances by Gorg and Salt. (CT)
