Tra­di­tions of Car­ni­val filled the Duke Street, Port-of-Spain, pa­n­yard of six-time Na­tion­al Panora­ma cham­pi­on Neal and Massy Trinidad All Stars when its spon­sor host­ed its an­nu­al pan lime in the lead-up to Car­ni­val 2010. Char­ac­ters such as the dame lor­raine, fan­cy sailor, jab jab, mid­night rob­ber and fan­cy In­di­an had the at­ten­tion of guests at the cul­tur­al evening put on by the lo­cal con­glom­er­ate. There was an ex­tem­po fea­ture, too.

How­ev­er, the event would not have been com­plete with­out a scin­til­lat­ing per­for­mance by the world-fa­mous Trinidad All Stars.

Al­ways mu­si­cal­ly equipped, Trinidad All Stars had guests danc­ing with its re­fresh­ing mix of 2010 Car­ni­val re­leas­es, as well as trea­sured se­lec­tions from its choice reper­toire.

It was Ger­vase Warn­er's first out­ing at the an­nu­al event as group chief ex­ec­u­tive of­fi­cer at Neal and Massy. He show­ered praise on Trinidad All Stars for its rich lega­cy and ho­n­ourable con­tri­bu­tions to the steel­band move­ment and de­clared the pride the com­pa­ny felt at be­ing as­so­ci­at­ed with this pan brand. Trinidad All Stars is cel­e­brat­ing 75 years of ex­is­tence this year, which Warn­er hailed as a tremen­dous achieve­ment.
