Many many happy returns to you. Whilst the teens will never return look ahead for you have just entered what I call the decade of formation. During this decade many young men decide on their career paths and more often than not choose their lifelong mates. Continue to pray about both perseveringly.

I look forward to your return to Trinidad in particular next year when hopefully we will again meet at Sforzata. What excellent music. Forget the judges' statements; you clearly arranged music way over their heads. And, may I remind you that Pan Trinbago still allows an arranger to arrange for two bands once they are in different categories. I sincerely hope that the "new era" could be started in 2011 with the "marriage" of "Andre and the exponents of the art, Renegades",under your conditions only

Three score and ten the good book says - one score done : ]. Here's to many many more.

Happy Birthday Andre White. If I may toot my own horn, but I was the first one that gave you kudos and printed your name in my Pan book, "400 Questions and Answers on Pan 1960 to Present.

Happy Birthday Andre! You are an inspiration to a lot of young people involved with our steelband culture. I wish that you would continue on your chosen path of endeavour, making us happy with your sweet musical arrangements, and May Almighty God continue to richly Bless you with that musical gift that He has given you.
P.S. The judges of the T&T Panorama 2010 Medium bands catergory were very very unfair to you, but dont be upset about the results, your time is coming soon when the musical world would honor you and your musical achievements. Give Thanks!!
