Once again politics has taken the Stage!!!!
My opinion is that some of these results will always stand - the reason behind it is to find a balance of keeping PANORAMA alive, whilst allowing a economically and political balance across TnT.
We all know certain bands have to make the final (No matter What). Although change is apparent small steps have to be made i.e Exodus!!!.

In my opinion Renegades should have also been out. Tropical Angel Harps deserved to be in, they hit real hard- real jam. This year I believe all South bands should have been in the finals- well all except Deltones.
WELL DONE TO ALL BANDS and all the best for the Final!!!!!!!

  You have a point there - before this, there was the perception that five bands had a "lock" on five positions in the finals, and for many years it was so. Exodus had always been one of those five bands. I would dearly love to see all those score sheets, and read all the comments from each judge. That being said, the judges have spoken, and everything moves on. Never mind, chin up, and come again for 2011. Kudos to all the members.

    Yes MakeItPlain the judges have spoken and we must move on, but in the interest of producing a better product in the future a full review of how the judges came to their decisions should be undertaken by both the PanTrinbago and the TnT government. After all, this is a government sponsored event. And all the prize monies do come directly from the Trinidad and Tobago government.

food for thought. how can the members of the steelband fraternity sit by and say nothing. Allowing a band to play a chutney song and is at this stage looking poise to win the panorama medium section. Aren't the bands supposed to play a calypso?I think so.Has the rules been changed.Can we speak about this.Forget about Xodus.
