The Wendy Alleyne Show
On November the 30th 2009, the Bajan artiste you have been waiting for has finally arrived, and this time, “she’ll be sweeter” It’s the great Bajan songstress Wendy Alleyne in Concert at the Gymnasium on Independence Day.
Remember songs like “He’s so fine” “Stand by Love” “Midnight Blues” “I can’t control my emotions” to mention a few.
Wendy will be backed by the Rickey Aimey Band. Performers will include Tanya Clarke, Richard Stoute, Tony Grazette, Carolyn Leacock, Adrian Clarke, Desmond Weekes, Dwayne Husbands and Cherish Breedy The event will be under the patronage of Prime Minister David Thompson and his wife Mara. November 30th
What is also interesting about the Wendy Alleyne show is the promoter, a young guy by the name of Andre Craig who looks like he is not old enough to have seen a star pitch or he still has “he mother features”.
It’s really good to see a young promoter like that staging a show with a great like Wendy.
He has been able to do what others have tried and failed to do, woo Wendy and get her back to do a concert here. Over the years major promoters have been trying and Andre has done it, kudos to him.
So make it your business to be at the Sir Garfield Sobers Complex on Monday 30th November to celebrate independence in grand style, the local show of the decade, “Wendy Alleyne in Concert” “this time it will be sweeter” “you will not be able to control your emotions”.

I was in Bdos. for the Independence celebrations and was so happy to learn that this show was going to be put on during my vacation. I have always loved Wendy Alleyne and those other performers from her time so to be able to attend was the highlight of my vacation. I could not stop talking about that show for weeks after I returned to NY. It was of an extremely high standard and brought back many beautiful memories of my growing up in Barbados.
Now that Wendy is coming to perform in Brooklyn in the next few weeks, I am excited beyond measure to be able to see and hear her and all the other performers all over again.

I am happy for Wendy and likes of her. (Did i say the likes of her?) She cannot be compared with anyone. Quite frankly, she deserves to be given a silver rown of merit straight out of Government house.

How come Wendy has not been given her due? We speak of Rhianna but I am sure there are those who would agree that were it not for Wendy Some people would not have a thing about Barbados… Wendy I love ya!!!!
