ALL HARD WORKERS IDENTIFY!

Machel said it best – in a song whose horn section is enough to start me wiggling in my seat like a child with worms. “Tell the boss you want a (BREAK) and you need it now.” I do! I do! Indeed I do!

“Working hard, everyday,
Hustling, just for pay”

I have £90 waiting impatiently to leave my hands and enter the coffers of some masmaker. This is why I don’t understand Island People. Pulse 8 still hasn’t responded to my queries but they have been posting information on their website – even though it isn’t completely up as yet. Island People’s camp? That tighter than crapaud bamcee. Nothing going in, nothing coming out.

Rumours abound regarding registration. It’s like an Area 51 has opened up right on the Avenue. Even if they haven’t decided as yet when it will be, they should come out and say so. This is not weapons of mass destruction allyuh making. Is COSTUMES! Who bringing out this band? Saddam?! They must expect that potential masqueraders will want to be kept abreast of developments that have taken place after the launch. Since no information has been forthcoming, is it then safe to assume that there have been NO new developments? At least get the website up so that people can get a better idea of which costumes they’re playing in. What do they think this is, another CAUTION fete where people will pass on their money and happily wait for the day of the event with no clue as to what’s going on or even where and just wait for information to be passed on to them eventually?
Anyway,

“Days go by,
Nothing’s changed,
Tell me why – it’s so strange!”
