THE STRAY CATS are in their 22nd year of judging for the National Cultural Foundation’s calypso competitions.
And they are ready and undaunted as they prepare to open on June 19 at the Town Hall, Crane Hotel, St Philip at 8 p.m.
Manager of the St Philip-based tent Jerry Roberts and his crew were in an upbeat mood as they launched this afternoon at Zen Restaurant overlooking Crane Beach which was voted one of best in the world by readers of USA Today.
“We got the Hammer back he was finalist in 2003,” said guitarist Roberts who gave the Press a taste of what is expected when he backed Hammer and Sobe in a short jam session.
Anthony De Cheerman Waldron said the tent would be entering eight singers in the Pic-O-De-Crop, one in Soca Royale and one in Party Monarch. There will be three guest artistes: Broomer, Cutters and Kidsite who will also emcee.
Roberts again defended the name of the tent. (JS)
