For those of us who missed the concert last night, take some comfort in that BET will be broadcasting the show in a special feature on Machel Montano HD and Friends. Keep checking the T.V. guide and BET for more information on when it will be shown:
BET J to air Machel Montano Trinidad & Tobago special
NEW YORK, USA: Trinidadian soca star Machel Montano's electric performance on Friday, March 23, 2007 at New York's Madison Square Garden will be broadcast on BET J and BET, the leading African American and multicultural television networks.
An initiative of Trinidad and Tobago's Ministry of Tourism, the network will air "Machel Montano HD & Friends" special concert, including a signing for fans at J & R Music and Computer World as the star celebrates his 25th year in the music industry.
The 30 minute show also features award-winning Trinidadian "masman" Peter Minshall and has been appropriately billed the "3'Ms – Machel, Minshall and Madison Square Garden" as it showcases the tourism product of Trinidad and Tobago against the background of its soca music, mas and other aspects of its diverse culture.
Trinidad and Tobago's Minister of Tourism, Howard Chin Lee, said "We want our music, culture and the beauty of Trinidad and Tobago to be known internationally, and we have found that BET J is a great network to target both our overseas-based nationals, and potential and repeat visitors." He said Soca is on the cusp of becoming an international genre and the world must be aware of its roots.
Cybelle Brown, Vice President of Sales and Business Development with BET Digital Networks, said the show will be aggressively promoted before its airing both on the air and on the networks' websites. "We are delighted to continue our partnership with both the Ministry of Tourism and the Tourism Development Company of Trinidad & Tobago in 2007, and in the process, promote a 'true Caribbean' experience to our discerning viewers," she said.
The show will air four times on BET J's popular "Island Lime" slot on Saturdays and twice on BET. Air dates will be announced shortly.
As I await official reviews and photos from the Machel HD concert,from all reports the concert was awesome and Machel did not disappoint his fans! Here is a little "teaser" of Machel performing at the autograph session:
