3. My name’s Maurice. Is this the first time you’ve been to our lovely island of Trinidad?
4. Yes, it is. Is it much farther 1 to where the concert is?

6. I hope we haven’t missed them.
7. What do you mean? Of course we haven’t; we’re here to set up the equipment. The concert is in this evening.

14. Ready for what?
15. For the sound check: to check that the sound’s alright. You don’t seem to know very much about this.
16. No, I’m more in to the business side of things, you know. I’m not really a technical expert.
17. No, obviously 4 not. Well, wake me up when you’re ready, OK?
18. I’m fed up with this! They’re all just using me: Dudu, Sasa, Maurice, even Hugo, let me have his apartment.
