In the Trini context, Machel keeps the carnival alive...and in the Barbados context, Pong and Contone does the same. Now comparing the two re quality is a totally different matter...... But both make they respective listening audiences happy with their material. You can compare Machel to Pong and Contone.

I attended the Calvacade and thought that I was early. Boy was I wrong. I drove around and around and coulnt find a park. In the end I had to beg a man to let me park on his lawn and he agreed. After I walked for about 5 minutes to get the NCF carpark I had to ask my collegue if we were at the right place. People were about like ANTS. I kid you not!! I had to say this was the BIGGEST turnout to the NCF Calvacade Launch & I have been to all!! MORE THAN 6000 in attendance by far!!!

You seriously comparing Machel to Pong & Contone. Everybody has a role to play in the festival, but surely that comparison is a bit of a stretch Wait.

I remember an interview with Shadow and they asked him about the young entertainers like Machel etc and he stated plainly this is their time and they keep the industry going.

WTF IS THIS! The problem i have with the print and electronic media re CropOver is maturity. A Festival needs to be hyped up and promoted POSITIVELY...i HAVE ALWAYS HELD THIS POSITION regardless of who were the power brokers of CropOver. I would also to suggest to Peter Boyce as a member of the CBC Board of Management and a stakeholder in CropOver to ensure the stupid negative behaviour of Admiral and John KING DOES not prevail at CBC while we have Dennis Johnson (of Trini influence) promoting CropOver POSITIVELY. Nowhere in the West Indies (or the World) would you have thousands of people loving the offerings of Pong and Contone and radio personalities singling out them for criticism. IT SHOWS THAT WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW TO PROMOTE A FESTIVAL BECAUSE IT IS THE WORKS OF THESE GUYS THAT ARE KEEPING THE FESTIVAL ALIVE!

Many Barbadian and West Indies cricketers have honed their skills on this ground. I can never forget Tino Best -a little thing- holding a bat, talking nuff and giving older fellas bare talk. Tino's great uncle Carlisle Alonza Best brought Tino. The rest is history-----and this was just a bit of history This car-park is accustomed to crowds of people and certainly on Friday night there were THOUSANDS of people there. When I arrived at seven o'clock there were 10 people there. I said to David and Camoul that I expected to see more people at that time but Camoul said to me that bajans come out late. By nine o'clock what Camoul said was true---real people , nuff people ---THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN THE CARPARK- I live within walking distance of the N C F
