How do you feel about the government's/Ministry of Culture's plans for Carnival 2008?

Question

There are these plans the people associated with Carnival, have for the events. How do you feel about them?

Answer 1

I agree with the first answerer. I, too, wish they would bring things back to the way they were, because I enjoyed events better that way.

Answer 2

I want back the things that they took away.

Answer 3

I am not totally happy. I was not totally happy last year either. I do not know who exactly is coming up with the ideas, but I do not agree with all of them and they may not have come about if I were part of the Committee. In fact I wish I were on the team to know exactly what is going on.

I want the Panorama Finals back in the Queen's Park Savannah, back where it was, and where it belongs. I also miss Dimanche Gras being in the Savannah. I miss the big stage. I miss the North Stand and Grand stand. I miss hearing two songs on Carnival Sunday night for each contestant, each song being sung in a round. The Young Kings competition also had two songs per person. I would love to have that back.

I mentioned the North Stand and Grand stand. That is where I love to see the Parade of the bands.

I wish I could have a chat with the people in charge of these things. I miss the way things used to be. It was good and they just started making these changes.
