THE YOUTH CONCERT following Thursday’s Broken Trident Run was hailed as a resounding success.

The evening concert took place at The Glebe pasture in St George and featured bands from mostly secondary and tertiary schools, which performed a mix of pan, instrumentals, R&B and local music. Each band was enthusiastically greeted by an energetic unofficial front row posse, dressed in the national colours and waving flags frantically.
