Carlon is a family man firstly. He is married with TWO children...just thought I should mention that (for research purposes).
What I can say about Carlon is that I've known him for a little over 10 years ago. We met back in July of 2008 when I became a member of the National Steel Symphony Orchestra. I had no clue of his existence prior to that. I should mention that he was there 10 years before that since the days of it being the National Steel Orchestra (N.S.O).
We became very good friends during the time I spent in the NSSO. It is because of Carlon why I am now involved in Politics of Steelpan. In November 2015, Carlon approached me to contest for the position of Secretary on his slate for the Eastern Region elections. I was the then Secretary of the NSSO for the second year straight. I was very hesitant as I already had a mindset about the organization and wasn't in the mood to be a "hero". Nevertheless, with enough motivation from him and other friends in music, I ran for the position and won.
We never always agreed on matters, but we respected each other's opinions and saw even our differences as beneficial forces in Steelpan progress and that is why we remained friends.
What I can assure everyone on this forum is that Carlon means business and will put in whatever work is necessary to produce results and if his sweat returns void, he will NOT hesitate to step aside and make way for someone else, and it is for that reason why he has my respect.

It had so much ah candidates running in that election ah thought it was the NIGERIAN ELECTIONS (79 -- imagine that!!) so ah kind ah miss out on screening CARLON HAREWOOD. But now it becomes essential because BEVERLEY is turning out to be a PART TIME PRESIDENT who will be a FINANCIAL BURDEN on PAN TRINBAGO just like I outlined in the run up to the elections!!!
Look, ah whole week pass and other than the CELEBRATION and BOASTING we have not heard ONE WORD about POLICY or PROCESS. I guess that was only OLE TALK for the elections to fool dem PAN MEN.
What Keith Subero say?
Anyway, it looks like the burden of RUNNING PAN TRINBAGO is going to fall on the shoulders of CARLON HAREWOOD. So he better step and start telling us what is going on with the NEW PAN TRINBAGO.
If AMAR or KERON VALENTINE or DUPRES had won this election so much POSITIVE ACTION would have taken place in that FIRST WEEK the WORLD WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOCKED!!! And I know that DEM THREE LEADERS real shocked and dey eh about to join AQUIL ARRINDELL and sign no PEACE TREATY and lend NO HELPING HAND!!!
EVERYBODY VEX!!!
So CALON HAREWOOD better hold a PRESS CONFERENCE or something or COME ON THIS FORUM and tell us what is going on with PAN TRINBAGO while BEVERLEY back in TOBAGO planting she PIGEON PEAS in the BACK YARD and PAN PROGRESS gone DORMANT over in TRINIDAD.
