There’s Savage, There’s lil Rick, Olatunji, Julien Believe, there’s a whole lotta people, SekonSta…It’s a Big lineup. Savage is the dancehall artist. It’s really a soca show but Savage is the guest artist tonight. We have some of the best artists out of Trinidad, Barbados, Bahamas, it’s a fully loaded lineup. We’ll actually be starting from eight o’clock and we’ll be going straight through, very tight schedule because we have so many artists. And apart from the International lineup we have a fully loaded Belizean Lineup. We have DJ Dixie, Evolution Sound, Firestarter, Ernestine, The X Band, Supa G. It’s really the best lineup that we’ve seen so far for this year. Like I said we’ll be starting at eight, If you come out nine, you would have missed something already so come out nine, party all night, we’ve got forty thousand gallons of water, we have paint cyah done, we have no fear DJ’s handling the paint and powder aspect of the show and they’re the best in the business so you can’t lose.“
