Toberone's dad performing on Ed Sullivan show w/ Liberace

yet another round of " my dad is better than your dad" :P

Published on January 15, 2008 By Toblerone In Misc

I might have mentioned that my dad used to be in a steelband called "Trinidad Tripoli Steelband". They toured with Liberace for 4 years. Clips of Tripoli are now up on you tube. IN the clip below you'll see my dad playing the scratcher (this case two at once). At that stage my dad didn't play the steelpan himself. Check out the dance moves!

MOre clips are on youtube, just type Trinidad Tripoli into the search thingy, my dad is in most but not all of the clips.

I'll pass on the compliments.

Your dad had groupies!

As a matter of fact he did...I often feel the need to bleach my brain after he tells me the stories!

Happy New Year, mate. Hope you had a good one.

The clip is very entertaining indeed. And your Dad is just brilliant (and I mean this sincerely although I do understand about you having to bleach your brain). Great stuff...
