None ah dem seem to have pan sections? Am I wrong? What's wrong with having a two tenors, and double second alongside the brass section? Is there a good reason for this? Big up the old band Pan Vibes, that was nice to hear soca and pan and singing in a fete ( even though I was too small to member dem..still got tapes to listen to )

Expense, transport of extra delicate instruments although I have thought of it as being a great idea for a special show.

Thats why you have to respect bands like Burning Flames(now RHF) for putting pan style sounds in there music year after year.

Because pan is not considered brass and before synthesizers etc brass was the main component of a band.

Good question...what is the answer ?

Toppa_Toppa · 02-08-2006, 08:38 PM

Maybe because they're two separate entities?

RotiKing2004eva · 02-09-2006, 09:35 AM

But it's so integral to culture (T&T especially )......transporting a pan...I can see that being cumbersome...but a tenor is so much easier to transport than drums

Well, I guess it is going to take a VINCY, again, to take another compotent, STEELPAN, of the ART FORM to the GLOBAL MARKET.

MATTAFIX LIVE

If you only hearing the AUDIO, it means that you will have to DOWNLOAD and install DIVX in order to see the VISUAL.

By the way, it is the SECOND song...but the first song WICKED same way.

Yeah mann, see the VINCY playing de STEELPAN for the WORLD to see.

Enjoy.

PS: It takes a WHILE to DOWNLOAD the LIVE segment so be PATIENT.
