Negative

Just went with my friend Cyr to see lolo, 'turns out its a free show and it's not in the eve for a change. Cyr has seen lolo for the 3rd time. It was not a disappointing set. We love it. It's like watching their Baga or Ratsky gigs. I saw old friends- the chips. Amer is still nice as ever.
Then it was negative ( literally) in the post-after show. (Nice to meet Helen by the way) I'd rather not elaborate as I shouldn't expect that much from a "star." I've had enough memories to last me anyway. It was a rainy day and it was colder when I got home late eve. I watched a Chinese concubine movie with a sad ending. I could really use the Pensieve of HP for all my swirling thoughts that would take time to vanish. Yeah, I was reading HP6 at the moment. :)

U Remind me

I finally saw my friend again after almost 3 mos. I did missed lolo and it was my duty as an RS to monitor new events for the other members.
It was a work holiday when I went to Baga ( thanks to Ninoy). I saw Magi, Chris, Amer and William. Chris' hair is now long. I must've gone really that long.
Fortunaltely, lolo is still nice and accommodating as ever. Glad to hear he has a new label now. I wish him all the best.
Nina was sick that that and there was Nyoy and his new band. My friend Malen and I didn't like his new band. We were always there in NVM's gigs before. Malen misses Jerome the violinist. I actualy felt the same too, even if I don't really like the violinist, just his music.
Nyoy's voice without Jhe's violin strings seems incompletely flavored. However, Nyoy's really a pro (great voice) with or without the Mannos.
I was leaving when I saw lolo and we stopped by for a small chat. It was quite unforgettable, thanks to Aling Nenita. :) Lolo, you really remind me that I have a great friend in you. Domo Arigato Gozaimasu!
I got home in the early AM and within 3 hrs, I was up again to work for the day. I was so puyat but completely happy. I felt my eyes couldn't open that wide as I work. ha-ha.
After work, I still couldn't get sleep, for I had to go to a close friend's b-day treat. I was really slouching, laying back in the resto couch drinking loads of iced coffee just to stay awake. The things I do for my friends!
When I got home, that's the time I finally dozed off to dreamland. ha ha. :)

Just my b-day

I really hated b-day. I wish the clock would just stop and I woudn't age anymore. But that's wishful thinking I know.
I enjoyed my day with my old friends and kids at work. I guess, I had everything, all the material things money can buy in a b-day ( I got new things, food, etc. ) but I did miss out on something. I guess God will eventually decide whether to truly let go or still hold on. I still need God's wisdom and guidance in my life.
I'm just thankful I'm still around, contributing to the kids evryday of my life. :)

The Love Concert

This is really a love offering kind of concert. My rents couldn't make it so I just came to support Mr. Nonoy. It's his comeback concert after many years of being a doctor.
I suspect it will be an older crowd and a much tamer one and I was right. I feel safer with an older and much wiser crowd. But I feel happier and much more alive with a younger crowd!
The old folks are really kinda sleepy and they have nose masks, ointments but you know they have the means to afford a high priced ticket. They are much quieter and respectful of the artist. And they do appreciate a geniune talent like Mr. Nonoy Z. He looks younger but namumupo na po ako sa kanya, out of respect and coz I feel he's really way older than me.
He's good-looking too. I love the voice though I didn't know the older songs. I just felt like I'm an old soul so I came to see him. I guess I only saw ten young people or less in the crowd.
Mr. Nonoy kept on singing till twelve midnight coz he said he wanted na "masulit the ticket fee" and afterwards, he warmly talked to the concert-goers in the post-after show.
Everyone like the antics of Mr. Willy Nep, the songs of Kuya Nyoy (it's funny how Mr Nonoy refers to him as "my son" and Joey G.
My dad thought I was just going to see it coz of Kuya Nyoy. Nah! I really love Mr. Nonoy Z.
I love old people, hehehe. I respect my rents and the older ones who have weathered the storms already.
I just felt I need to rest ( from my tiring job) and give myself a b-day treat. :)

Mr. Can this be love

I finally saw Jeff again. He forgot to sing " I gave you my everything" and he knows it. He's really such a nice guy. We we're just conversing all this time during the signing. Kuya Rod is a nice RM too. He even invited me to Metro bar but I have work so I didn't come.
I've always been a Smokey Mountain fan and I love the song "Can this be love" even Sarah's revival of it. ( And the movie of course)
Anyways, hope Jeff and his self-produced solo album makes it. Good guys deserve good breaks. And I believe in his talent. My other friends would probably agree.
Jeff looks and sings better now as a solo artist so hope everyone hears him out. :)

The day you said goodnight

I'm not really a Hale fan but I do appreciate just 1 song: The day you said goodnight. This is such a poetic song you'd wanna listen to over and over again.
I never realized how strong their status as a band is now. I just went there for my friends who can't make it. I'm like thinkin' 'Should I be here?" with all the pushing and crowd bantering. I really hated those OA guards.
I remember in the Bamboo concert, my friends and I would diss them as a male group and the lame "Broken Sonnet" song. Now they're definitely hot that would make Bamboo green with envy. I did learn my lesson, when somebody (unruly males) dissed a girl onstage ( coz she was female) in a Slapshock gig. It kinda affect you in a way coz you're of the same gender.
I guess I shouldn't really judge a book by its cover. Champ is nice, yeah. :)
