In 1973 St James Tripolians entered the Panorama contest as the only Pan round d neck steel band to play along side the conventional steel band for a place in the semis finals, they pioneered the Pan round d neck steel bands to have their own category in Panorama. what is the reason why they are not in the Pave d way parade of Pan round d neck steel bands for the International panorama.

THE ST JAMES TRIPOLIANS - STEELBAND PIONEERS (1971)
It's just spite work on Pan Trinbago part Keith Simpson was not even around at that time.
Ask Tripolians.
I wounder if they (Tripolians) can name at least five members who have not appeared in any pictures of Tripolians from that time 1972, 1973?
What's your point? Caspar.
Casper Durant, does it matter? Tripolians are those who are there today.
What Bertel? If Pan Trinbago has a problem with Keith Simpson, and although it is projected as HIS band, why does PT sacrifice a whole band because of one person? Those actions are infantile to say the least.
Can't imagine this multi million dollar org engaging in "spite".
It's not the organisation, it's the small minded humans in charge.
Straight spite, just imagine in the Steelband movement?
What these people don't realize is when they make these kinds of decisions everyone knows their motive and show them to be "small minded"
