[...] Two guys from Leeds/UK lay claim to have the only “official” tune for the Soca Warriors produced. This must be an insult to all the Trinbagonian musicians, who recorded over 20 songs to support their team. True fans stick to Maximus Dans “Fighter”, which is a true hynm.

I support the Soca Warriors 100% but what on earth is this thing with the tickets for the T&TvPeru match. I am just sick of the discrimination I mean really I have to own a Bmobile phone before I can get a ticket? When did TSTT start owning the Soca Warriors? Lord have mercy! and the price of theose tickets I might as well stay home and watch the match.

you people..
these tickets are CHEAP!
With success of the team comes changes…
they are not trying to Rob us if thats what you all are thinking..
How much youall think it is for a game in the finals?
I think the price though a lil heavy means nothing if you are a true..fan
however i agree their are some..things that could have been done better.
Buts lets be real Trini fans..
with success (which is something new to us..in terms of football this is the way of things.
(Can’t say i agree)
though

Two Americans don’t hold the patent for the steelpan. They have a patent for an improvement. Even if the original inventor had patented the pan at the time of the invention, it would have long expired and open to the same improvements those two Americans made

Is that Maximus Dans song the one that goes “I’m a Soooooooca Warrior!” that I heard at Carnival this year?

Hi Dan - that’s the song exactly!

Charmaine, thank you for the refinement. It’s interesting that T&T don’t hold any patents on pan at all, as far as I am aware. I’m open to being corrected on that!
