My 2011 carnival!
by jmedina06 on 3/27/11The Theater at Madison Square Garden - New YorkI was one of those people who did not make it to Trinidad for Carnival and like Machel said, this concert was for people like me! The concert was great! Machel was obviously the headliner but appearances from Ricki Jai, Farmer nappy, Patrice Roberts and other friends was sooo appreciated. What was most touching was the Mighty Sparrow and Calypso Rose making appearances and giving a wonderful show! So great to see them doing well and still going strong. The show's set list was well balanced: there were numerous crescendos throughout the night with famous oldies and newer songs evenly spread. Machel knows how to build excitement in patrons and being the excellent performer that he is, I was not disappointed! In fact, the whole experience made me want to get my tail back to Trinidad...Carnival 2012 will be seeing me!
