I just would like to congratulate the band on the victory. I am so thankful that all of you allowed me into your family to play, and win, this performance with you! You all kept me on my toes and made sure that I had all my parts down without a score!
I also want to thank all the viewers, judges, and WST for making this event successful. Without WST, we wouldn't be kept so up to date on happenings in pan. Without the judges, we couldn't have a competition for people to push the art form in. Without the viewers and supporters, this would all just be a waste of time. For if nobody is going to be there to enjoy it, why leave the yard?
Thanks!!

Thanks WST for being first at informing the pan diaspora of the winner of the 2010 Pan in the 21st Century.
Pan Trinbago should make it their priority to be always first with infomation. Any Governing boby must be alert 24/7.

[evan lobo]

i totally agree- as i said before pan trinbago has to go beyond pan competitions and officials travelling all over the world - there is real business in pan overall to be developed - ask vp brian serrette
peace
from tnt
proud to be trini

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for doing a terrific job on Pan on the net. I enjoy your commentaries.
Your updated topics and Pan news are quite interesting. However, Pan, as we
know it is a physical activity, or performance if you please. You can say that Bolt
broke another would record. But seeing the actual race gives the viewer insight
into that moment in time.

It will enhance your articles a great deal if the viewers can see an actual clip of
performances or performance, as in the case of Sforzata Steel Orchestra, winning
the 2010 Pan in the 21 Century Music Competition. As you are fully aware, we as
Caribbean folks love to be in the action.

Thank you again for great job and continued success.

Regards,

Rick M.
