They rocked the house at Presser Hall

Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, February 7, 2016

By Monty Siekerman
The musicians and audience experienced the most happy and fun performance in Presser Hall's 90-year-history when four steel bands pounded out 17 songs to a nearly full house on Saturday evening.

There was limbo, a conga line and what could be construed as ONU's adaptation of a mosh pit.

They rocked the house with the music - jumpin', clappin', swingin', and swayin'.

Someone should have sold deodorant and handed out Ridilin at the door afterwards.

The musicians and audience left the building feeling happy. That's what Caribbean music is all about. A fun time.
