Comment: great points about the bands not being supported. i hoe things get better this year. maybe we the people who enjoy the sweet music can petition this.

Comment: That's wonderful. Congratulations to the all the participants. It's good to know that children are still interested and doing well in these areas. Am glad each one was rewarded and not just the overall winner, because they are all winners to have done so well.

Comment: stop bashing the bands you have a real good idea, local bands get bad treatment, lack a trailers which are easy to build, generator etc they have to com better i think all the bands should get something at least from young to old, but to me the younger bands doing it better than the so called big bands

Comment: biggerz sound so jokey typical sk person, small axe WACK all da so called big bands big bands WACK, masters cant play a song, suga band cant catch they self and small axe gonna jus follow masters, but check dis i gon follow ya'll you see those same bands ya'll callin little? Lightz Out, Kollision Hiya Heightz etc? is those youngsters got the real potential to finally propel sk music to a level whee it is, but people here so bias no matter how good you are in anything you get bash for it

Comment: The comments from "concerned" is on point given the recent story on the Gardens Housing project. These types of housing have to be properly managed and standards enforced for them to work. On the issue of housing on a whole, I fully endorse a suggestion by the Heritage Society some years ago that the government should have designated several acres of land to make an entirely new village and then encourage private sector investment for supermarkets and other related businesses. Poor thinking!

Comment: Lock dem up and throw way the key! lock dem up!

Comment: REMEMBER, WITHOUT OUR LOCAL BANDS THERE WILL BE NO STREET ACTIVITIES. THE BANDS NEED TO FORM A UNION AND STRIKE FOR THIS COMING CARNIVAL IF THEY DON'T GET PAY TO PERFORM ON THE ROAD. WAY ALL THE MONIES COLLECTED FROM THE VENDORS GOING TO? HOW COME THE BANDS CAN'T GET NONE? HOW COME THE BANDS CAN'T EVEN GET A GENERATOR FROM CARNIVAL COMMITTEE? SHAME ON U CARNIVAL COMMITTEE. EVEN NEVIS, ANGUILLA, ANTIGUA PAYS THE BANDS AND STILL PROVIDE THEM WITH TRAILERS AND GENERATORS. STOP BASHING THE BANDS!
