You may recall a guy that flew from Florida to California simply to catch a West Indian Girl show.. that guys is me, and its a bit of a bummer that M left, she had a good look, a good voice and a good presence onstage for the band but I will tell you this- West Indian Girl can surely go on successfully without her. Many bands cant survive the loss of a charismatic vocalist, but WIG can. You have a sound that bigger than just one member. Remember I told you this And please come to Florida by the way.

WTF is with you people writing gushing icky wuvvy notes to Mariqueen and TR on here? As if either one of them is reading. We all know they both have agendas that have zero to do with WIG or its (or its members) success. How about telling FRANCIS and the rest of the band that you know they’ll rock on – actually much better now that the hairflipper liplicker tone-deaf dead weight is gone – and wish THEM the success they deserve. They’ve worked hard (the core members, I mean).

Francis, you’ve lost nothing and gained some good publicity. A trainwreck still makes people take notice, and then when things get cleaned up, they realize they wanna still keep looking and listening. Glad for Tony, too, to have a loyal forever friend in you.

Peace.

Pithetic. I hope she realizes afterwards that she has no career and is only married to Trent. Her only true accomplishment??

feel bad for yall but its okay… like your music and think you all “WAIL” anyway i understand shes getting married and a huge step and i think thats also why trent doestn want to tour in the future. they are both getting older, wiser and need to settle down… maybe we’ll see some babies too! (hope so) and everyone on the web who keeps hating on these two. you need to quit! shes a beautiful, talented woman and so is he and they deserve each other. quit being jealous and just respect the two of them and embrace that they want to get married! i’m happy for Mariqueen and Trent and i wish you two the VERY VERY BEST!!!!

LOL – most of the comments were deleted. We can’t even say we love the band but knew she would leave? Calling her a gold digger is just making an observation. In Mariqueen’s case, a very accurate observation.

Sad to hear Mariqueen has left West Indian Girl but I am sure she has her reasons and needs. Hope the best for her and Trent and I will still be here to support her and the existing band. Best of luck finding a replacement female vocalist! Question is who is going to be the lucky replacement singer?

Yowza! I’d definitely apply if I didn’t have to work on finishing high school this year.

Awww, and I so loved that she was a part of West Indian Girl. I will still be following her career, as I am very drawn to her balls-to-the-wall approach to life. I will also still follow West Indian Girl. It is great music to listen to while I write or when I’m playing with my daughter. Thank you, Mariqueen, for the time you were with them, and thank you, West Indian Girl, for being open to us NIN fans who came over to learn about you!
