Pan on the Promenade
GABRIEL BLACMANN AND LAQUESHA BAILEY (NYLO INTERNS Tuesday, August 15 2017
THE Brian Lara Promenade was alive with the sound of pan music when Pan Trinbago hosted an exhibition on Friday last.
Pan Trinbago president Keith Diaz expressed hope the event would promote appreciation for the national instrument and knowledge about its past. When asked about the choice of location, he said, “We realise every person passing by stops to watch...women, children, those on their way to work.” The exhibition showcased the craftsmanship of pans made here from the early 1950s to present. Previously, the country imported drums but the exhibition highlighted a new variety of patented pans specially made here which Diaz described as “our inventions, made from scratch”. He also explained there is a great difference between regular drums and the new pans which are louder, more powerful and more durable because of the difference in steel used. He gave the example that that the 27-inch drum has the volume of three pans.

Keith Diaz has invented a NEW PAN which he made from scratch. And this PAN has the volume of THREE PANS -- oh what an invention/it should be the pride of our nation!!!
Maybe those were the PANS that NEWTWON PLAYBOYS were playing ON THE AVENUE so they did not need 50 PANS on their truck.
Anyway, all who calling for THE RIGHT HONOURABLE KEITH DIAZ to STEP DOWN could keep barking at the moon because Mr. Keith Diaz is on a brand new mission to TAKE PAN to HIGHER HEIGHTS. So he eh going no whey. And if PAN MEN getting paid tomorrow it means that MR. KEITH DIAZ done get his 1.8 MILLION$$$ since LAST FRIDAY!!!
So ting nice ALL AROUND!!!
