Staff Article
Interview Recorded: February 12, 2006
We are at the Queens Park Savannah where the Panorama Semi-finals is taking place. Many of the bands are already here and anxiously awaiting their turn to perform on stage. We are interviewing some of the movers and shakers within these bands to share a general idea of what goes on behind the scenes. We are here with Mr. Renwick 'Mouse' Roberts, Captain of NLCB Buccooneers.
TRINBAGOPAN: Mr. Roberts, what is your tune of choice?
RENWICK: Our tune of choice is 'Capitalism Gone Mad' by the Mighty Sparrow. It's an old song.
TRINBAGOPAN: Who is the arranger?
RENWICK: Our arranger is Vernon (Sel) Dennis.
TRINBAGOPAN: How has Panorama 2006 been so far for you?
RENWICK: So far, once you are talking about Pan, it's good. There are always hiccups but we can override those hurdles. That's what we have to do.
TRINBAGOPAN: What plans do you all have after Panorama 2006?
RENWICK: This band plays twelve months a year. We play every weekend at Sunday School in Buccoo and at Sandy Point.
TRINBAGOPAN: Do you have any final words?
RENWICK: Actually we are preparing for 'Pan is Beautiful' later on this year because we always participate. We are also looking forward to today.
TRINBAGOPAN: Thank you sir.
