Ash Wednesday is a day of rest, right? Not before participating in the dragnet that officially closes the Bahian carnival, after an intense week of revelry. Scheduled to begin at 9 am, the party started with a delay of an hour and a half, and under a heat of over 35 degrees celsius, with Carlinhos Brown leading the Barra-Ondina route, followed by Timbaland and Ivete Sangalo. But there were no divisions or strings. They threw the party so that everybody could enjoy it.
* Brown did the whole thing on foot, right there on the street, with Luiz Caldas playing with him in the trio, and took the opportunity to shower popcorn at the partiers- a tradition of Candomblé to "cleanse the body" of envy. Fiorella Mattheis and Cassio Reis was there, super excited, next to the singer, who even sang the song “Carnavalizar,” by Tribalistas.
* Right behind came Ivete , with no costumes, accessories and sequins. She was more relaxed in short jeans, top and flats, but full of energy, making everybody dance till the last second. With her in the trio were Pedro Tourinho, Marina Morena and Rafael Cesana. Now Carnival in Salvador , only in 2012!
