Power Stars - Great performance by the left out Medium 2019 Semi Finalist
Power Stars did a compelling performance for the TT Panorama Semi Finals 2019, but got left behind for the next stage.
One might think that their less than 6:57 min/s performance, way under the 7:30 lower competition limit set for Panoramas, may have penalized them out of the competition; but wait, not so. Some other steelbands under the limit at the SF stage were Steel Xplosion, 7:23; Silver Stars, 7:10; Starlift 7:15; Phase II, 7:24; Exodus, 7:26 and Fonclaire, 7:21. Yes, there were some other casualties there, but not enough to press the issue.
But leaving all that bacchanal aside for now; enjoy a great performance by Power Stars, a performance that leaves some other would be worthies in the musical dust.

Very good performance! However, I found the standard of the medium bands was high.
Very high. More interesting than the Large.
bands get penalised for over time not under time.
and i am agreeing this performance is deserving of a finals night hearing.
