Breaking the Rules//WOW...Mr. Munro said IWER did not listen..he bullied the back stage....Breaking the Rules...according to the Trinidad Express today.
Mr. Munro also said according to today's Express; " Iwer has to understand he didn't obey the rules of the Competition. He went on to say
Montano performed for 12 minutes while George performed for 14 minutes. Yet Artistes are allocated 8 minutes. George also had 40-50 props, only 25 were allowed. Well it sounds to me Montano and George who placed Ist and 2nd in that order should have been disqualified. What kind of competition is this? Break the rules and come out winners. GO MacFarlane break all rules next years. That is Carnival.

Soca Monarch 2011...Observations and Questions
Yesterday I wrote about devotion to living without judgements and the devotion to letting things be because I knew today some bad news about the much talked about Soca Monarch 2011 would surface. They said the world is watching, the promotion was in your face for weeks yet the venue was not paid for up to midday of the show. Unacceptable, then to accuse the line minister of terrorism for making sure funds are paid was unreasonable. How Fantastic a Friday was it to start a show like this a 9:30pm and yet get a late start? I think the overseas Celebrity Panel is a great promotional tool for Cultural Tourism, but please have them in place for comments from competitor no 1. The local panel should be a Celebrity panel of persons with knowledge of the art form, not Celebrities of another art form. Did Benjai pay a price for his criticism of this very event(Soca Monarch) for not having two backing bands (which they now have) for the different segments? Was Iwer robbed? Why a false start for the Power Soca after a break? I always said, it's okay to promote any event at a high level with media sponsorship, but to do a fantastic production takes skilled people with a track record in production. I could go on and on...I'll say this ...Trinidad and Tobago can boost of having the greatest indigenous cultural products in the Caribbean, but one can also ask are these products in the right hands?.http://mrfile.blogspot.com ---or mrfile@twitter.com and click the link
