DOPE MNL VOL.4: POP POP POPFEST!


(June 2, 2012)

 A local interpretation of NYC Popfest, we give you Dope MNL x Dr. Martens Philippines Manila Popfest! We've got a summer-ender party of the year right here! Pretty sick line-up too!

Twin Lobster was playing when we got there. Despite the rain during their set...they sounded great! And people didn't mind squeezing in one big tent.

Trippy music from The Strangeness. I remember stopping in awe from where I was when they were playing. I know a good band when I hear one (self-proclaimed music enthusiast). If you haven't checked them out yet, it's about time you should!

Misyonaryo! Something to satisfy your underground hip-hop cravings.

 Word.

Wacky of Halik ni Gringo hand-carrying his own gear like a true rockstar.
