Fasnacht Nacht
2 years ago
Some more footage from Basler Fasnacht. I shot this in 2002, but It is going on now, so I like to dig out the footage and get all nostalgic for beer and wurst and walking around till the wee hours behind drums and fifes.

i'm down.
really great shots alex!
The fifes and drums reminded me of Siena's contradaioli, though the spirit seems different.
Thanks for sharing.
This happens right after mardigras so that Protestant Basel could feast while the Catholics fast.
This is the kind of stuff I was remembering (apologies for pointing at the tube...)

They take it seriously as hell and it can be a cruel and deadly business for horses and riders
