... so much so that BEVERLEY RAMSEY-MOORE had to PUSH BACK the scheduled dates for the SMALL BAND SEMIS and FINALS. Could you imagine that a 10-person PANORAMA COMMITTEE actually sat down and scheduled those TWO ORIGINAL DATES?
Anyway, with CHRISTMAS out of the way we could now get back to FOCUSING on the ALL YEAR PANORAMA.
They put DUVONE STEWART quite down in 15th -- can he make up all that ground and WIN AGAIN? I only listened to about 15 seconds of the BOOTS -- so I don't really have an opinion on the arrangement.
But I still think that DUVONE is going to SWEEP AGAIN.
Personally, I am at a CROSSROADS here because I think that THE JUDGES should support STAR ARRANGERS and keep them on TOP -- and on the other hand, I don't like these whole EUROCALYPSO ARRANGEMENTS of WE CALYPSO ... especially at CARNIVAL TIME.
As tough as times are in TRINIDAD right now -- PANTRINBAGO is getting over $30,000,000 (all source of funds considered) so allyuh better ENJOY the NEXT TWO MONTHS of PANORAMA FEVER.
THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS and NO MONEY to PAY THE PAN PLAYERS ... not to mention all THE MILLIONS owed to STEELBANDS from PREVIOUS YEARS.
Sometimes I wish I was THE PRESIDENT
So I could show you how your PANORAMA MONEY IS SPENT ...
