Paying more for Panorama

[Pan Times]

Trinidad Express Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, WI - Diehard pan followers who love to listen to pan on ‘de track’ during Panorama competitions, will have to pay $60 and $80 for the privilege at the semi-finals and finals on January 24 and 31 respectively, at the Queen’s Park Savannah in Port of Spain. This charge will be for a new competition in which the steelbands fine tuning their Panorama tunes will be eligible, and it is one of the changes announced yesterday by Pan Trinbago for the Panorama 2010 competition. The track leading up to the Savannah stage is where the bands fine tune the songs before their performance, by playing them over and over at varying tempos. Pan Trinbago secretary Richard Forteau yesterday explained, ’This is generally regarded as the better part of the music. This is where you hear it slow, not so slow and uptempo. It’s like a concert and we don’t think it is asking too much to ask people to pay for this.’ click for more

i saw this separate ticket price for the drag listed on the 'offiicial' schedule, and what i wanna know is, if yuh pay for a higher-priced 'seat' ticket, does that include the track too as part of that higher-price admission?

or you must buy two separate tickets to go both places?
