Trinidad Newsday -- Sean Douglas
‘Scanty’ Savannah Greens
Not only were some of the outfits scanty at Queens Park Savannah, Port of Spain, yesterday but so was attendance at the Greens, a live-music venue run by Pan Trinbago, north west of the “big stage” event of the National Panorama semi final for medium and large conventional steelbands.
The Greens’ sprinkling of patrons was in sharp contrast to the packed crowd at the North Stand and Grand Stand enjoying the national instrument.
A woman from East Trinidad, attending with her two children and other family members, told Newsday of her shock at the turnout on the Greens.

Dumb Idea Competing with Yourself!
They may have made money before with the Greens but it is still a bad idea. This year we could hear of Pan Trinbago dipping into panorama profits to pay of Greens debts.
No one told them it was a bad idea to have two shows that they sponsor
run simultaneously and in close proximity. These guys have no respect for
the instrument they supposed to manage.
Stupidity! Imagine these leaders don't know how to maintain the sanctity of Pan.. Perhaps there should be a movement to say No for 2019, eh?
