  • Can anyone tell me how to get in touch with a Pan Tuner call Learie Harrigin?...Does anyone know which band he tunes for?
    • learie works with a couple of the bands seasame Dradoes . but may be if your post you number he will call you because i am sure some one or he might see it on the post thanks,,,,,,
  • My concern has nothing to do with the music or the event in particular. I noticed we've gone from eleven or twelve bands down to nine bands and of those nine bands, how many of them will go home in debt?

    Some things never change.
    • Gospelpan would you prefer the bands not take part in the panorama.
      • Bugs,

        I would prefer the bands not take part in WIADCA's Panorama.

        The truth is, if the bands don't take part in the panorama it wouldn't be the first time. I believe they were on the right track when they boycotted WIADCA's Panorama and put on their own USSA Panorama's; it was a great achievement that would've gotten better over time...as they say, practice makes perfect. What's happening now is very sad because I don't believe the bands are being paid what they deserve.
        • GospelPan I agree that the bands need to step away from WIADCA's Panorama but I also don't believe that USSA as it is now is the answer.
          • Bugs, I was thinking more along the lines of the GPSA if we want to see a change for the future.
            • ok, ok...i was being naughty.

              The GPSA really means The "GospelPan Steel Band Association", I know, I know I couldn't help it.

              LOL
