The Trinidadians are angry that the scheduling of the concert, set to take place two days after carnival, will do nothing but take attention and funds away from the event, which earns considerable tourist money for the country. And foreigners have indeed been snapping up tickets... for the February 18th concert. Fans from as far as Australia, Japan and Germany have bought tickets online.
