  • congrats man 

    • Aquil: You should be encouraging that man to COME BACK TO TRINIDAD and share all that EDUCATION.

      Since RUSSELL PROVIDENCE come yuh BEST PARDNER on THIS FORUM yuh eh THINKING TOO STRAIGHT no more!!!

      • 'coma back to Trinidad' 

        panda you for real!

        you really not thinking straight 

        let the young man do he thing eh

        he going good with out our help 

        • Mr Arindell, if you were not inclined to sacrifice for your band as much as you do, I would have encouraged you too, to pursue post graduate studies in your field of choice. Mr Gonzales may consider this trivial, but I consider it necessary if you are to continue propagating future exponents of the art form to compete in a global market place. Higher education is the way to go.

          I know that you may be afraid of the backlash, and I also know that you may not be inclined to openly share your displeasure and disgust at the following;

          Were you aware of the disbursements of Pan Trinbago scholarships for CSEC repeaters between the ages of 15 - 20 who are members of steelbands affiliated to Pan Trinbago in a timely manner?

          Did you respond?

          I don't expect you to answer the foregoing, but I expect you to allow your conscience to be your guide sir, as you consider responding to the following TRIVIA for PROGRESSIVE THINKERS.

          We must not choose to educate selectively, we must choose to educate like Eric Williams, who didn't introduce the common entrance examination along the east west corridor only. That is why today, all these NJAC intellectuals and UNC doctors could be broadcasting to their sycophantic base ( not unlike Marcus Ash sponsored by Claude Gonzales these days) that the PNM did nothing for them, after Eric ensured that they were all properly educated.

          • pal, you should know by now Aquil Arrindell and San City are fearless.

            As for Mr. Ash, dont be too hard on him.

            the organisation has a culture of not getting it right and when I saw the notice I did not give it a second look because I knew it would have been equal to nothing for my band members.

            but is not the man we have to break, it is the culture. 

            so go easy on the youth he a lil manish but he has a good heart.

            and the answer is no, the notice was not efficient enough for me to act but this the the modus operandi of the organization.  

  • Mercer Ramdoo: Like yuh was RIGHT, PARDNAH!!!

    A JOKE MECCA and a new SERIOUS MECCA.

    "My goal is to make Berklee’s steelpan program #1 in the world without question."
