Blocos
Each
Bloco is formed by a giant sound car that carries the famous
band called Trio Eletrico and a support car with bathrooms,
drinks and medical assistance. The Bloco is surrounded by a
cord guarded by almost 1000 security guards specially aimed
to protect people inside (associate) and keep non authorized
people from getting in. Each Bloco has a couple of hundred to
a couple of thousand people that are easily identified by their
uniform called Abada. The trios parade is surrounded by the
associates. The band on the main sound car plays as it goes
along the Avenues of Salvador whilst the blocos dance and party
behind it in a very excited crowd, having great fun.
