There was a recent interview on WHEN STEEL TALKS that may have led some readers astray -- and WST is very RIGID ABOUT PAN HISTORY, so I have to elucidate ...

... readers on THIS FORUM might have gotten the impression from a recent PAN TRINBAGO INTERVIEW that the FIRST STEELBAND at WOODBROOK SECONDARY was relatively recent. And that it was somehow inspired by someone who was PERSONALLY BLESSED BY GOD.

But

Almost TWO YEARS and NO FINANCIAL REPORT from BEVERLEY and this PAN TRINBAGO EXECUTIVE ...

The Annual General Meeting shall be summoned by the President of the Central Executive Committee during the period September 1st to October 31st in each calendar year. The annual reports of the Auditor and of the President, Secretary and Treasurer of

BEVERLEY RAMSEY-MOORE is the one who started this 24-MONTH CAMPAIGN TO RE-ELECTION (instead of focusing on PAN PROGRESS) ... now she is going to PAY THE PRICE!!!

Look, she wanted to WIN SO BAD that she come in town with BLINDERS ON and join forces with THREE OF THE BIGGEST SNAKES IN PAN -- JUST TO WIN.

How many times during THE LAST CAMPAIGN I warned that DEM OLD HARDBACK PAN MEN from town WILL LICK UP BEVERL

THE FUTURE OF RECORDED STEEL DRUM MUSIC: SYNTHESIZED PAN TONES!!! THE TRINIDAD PAN WORLD has to open its EYES and MIND

But even when we CONSTRUCT the PERFECT PAN TONE, you still have to learn to REPRESENT IT from the KEYBOARD.

OUR PAN SOLOISTS and THESE SYNTHESIZER PAN TONE DEVELOPERS all try to make THE PAN sound like a PIANO -- that KILLS the UNIQUE MUSICAL BEAUTY

Long before BEVERLEY RAMSEY-MOORE announced her run for PRESIDENT OF PAN TRINBAGO, GERARD MENDEZ had his whole MANIFESTO MAPPED OUT and a dream to become PRESIDENT OF PAN TRINBAGO ...

But then BOOGSIE SHARPE and BERTEL GITTENS and CECIL HINKSON and EARL RICHARDS and a bunch of other BANDWAGON JUMPERS started pushing the WOMAN IS BOSS emotion and BEVERLEY started gaining momentum.

So -- with a keen political eye and his mind set on

THE PAN CRITIC SPEAKS on SHARING THE WEALTH WITH PAN PLAYERS

“BOUNCE Back”, steelbands have never “bounce” back financially since the creation of PanTrinbago! Steelband players’ health is a priority, I agree, but why weren’t their financial remuneration always a priority? One thing is certain the c

AQUIL ARRINDELL IS A BIG CIP HYPOCRITE. All of a sudden the man stop criticizing PAN TRINBGO -- as if BEVERLEY work OBEAH on HIM ...

MARCUS ASH and BEVERLEY and LAUREN PIERRE: You all should contact RUBADIRI VICTOR and work something out with him. I sense GOOD ENERGY from him -- so people should work TOGETHER!!!

I think that RUBADARI VICTOR is on to SOMETHING on the LOCAL SCENE and PAN TRINBAGO should contact him and JOIN FORCES!!!

Since before THE ELECTION I warned BEVERLEY that she does not have "THE STREET" to fight with that PICKUP SIDE -- but she say how I eh living in TRINIDAD and I doh know NOTHING about THE CULTURE ...

Allyuh see how MENDEZ capitalize the word ALL in that letter.

Look, BEVERLEY, your best bet is to FIRE DEM THREE FELLAHS (TODAY) and let the chips fall where they may after that. Another letter I received from June 20th is even more specifically damm
