Manberlin

March 9, 2011

Last month, I got to see The Testosterone Show! I mean the Anberlin concert. They sounded good live! But is it just me or Stephen Christian's moves are way too queer? It ruins the whole rock concert vibe. Haha! 
But don't get me wrong, minus those little observations, they were good performers and I love a concert with audience interaction. Just wish they ditched the whole Click Five peg especially with the confetti during the last song. But other than that, the music was what I spent for.
I'm still waiting for my cameo on Joseph Miligan's flip cam to be uploaded. The band passed by us when we were waiting in line. And funny how no one screamed or went hysterical.

Stone Temple Pilots were also playing the same night in another venue which I'm not going to reiterate how I regret...okay, nevermind.

I went with my friend Rei and his cousin + fiance which was last minute since I just found out he was going hours before the show. Original plan of watching with my college bud Luis and another friend Nicole turned out to be an utter fail since they were both late and arrived during the middle of the show. Also, my spot pretty much sucked. My view was a peephole between two 7-ft men with giant heads. And to make things more perfect, they were secretly smoking which 90% I inhaled. Lovely.

Thus, topping number three for best concerts I've been to! I've only seen 3.

Summer garage sale

 Since it's Summer, which means we're all broke, I decided to come up with a summer garage sale and tagged my friends along. (See April 5 post) We sold mostly old clothes, shoes, accessories, bags, scarves, etc. 

 I know it looks messy but that's the purpose of a garage sale knowing everyone's going to be digging things like crazy. To find a precious gem you need to dig hard and deep!
And besides, have you ever seen a garage sale so tidy? Yeah thought so too.
I think I proved my statement enough.


Anyways...


Thanks to my Betches Ana, Hen and Bea! And to my two college loves Brix and Guia!

These were only pictures during the 1st day of the sale. My friends Luis and Lauren visited the 2nd day but I guess that info seems useless since I have no pictures.

This was a 5-day sale but I left the sale for my Mom's secretary to handle during the next 3 days. Ha!
Good thing the neighbor allowed us to use her yard.

'Till the next sale!

Flashback Project #10: Legalization

October 9, 2010

My 18th party last year at 32ND ST in Fort. I got one of my favorite local bands Franco to play at my party.

Meet 8, a rockstar minus the rockstar attitude.
(What a bad photo of me on the right haha)

Comeback of Zee Deveel

Around late February, Incubus manager Steve Rennie announced that the band will be touring again this year! He kept giving hints about a possible show in the Pacific Rim. Also, on the band's latest record.

 

"I think if you live in the Pacific Rim area I think it’s reasonable to assume that Japan will not be the only show the band would play in the region. There will be others and we will announce those as they are confirmed." - Steve Rennie

(From http://www.incubusview.com/ )

I used to be really active in their sites like Enjoy Incubus and Incubus-Online View which helped me keep updated with every news, announcements, tour, and what the boys has been up to.

 "Had a chat today with our international agent. It looks like we will have 3 or 4 dates in the pacific Rim area on our way to Japan to announce in the not too distant future. Dates could include Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Manila, and hopefully Korea. Stay tuned. Could be a date in Hawaii as well."

- Steve Rennie

Hints kept on coming and we already knew it has gonna happen!

And finally, on April 1, Steve asked our Street Team friend Katrina to announce it online via Incubus HQ video chat!

"...tour dates are starting to be confirmed. Philippines group leader, Katrina announced live on HQTV the band's concert in Manila on July 28th at the Araneta Coliseum. More dates on the Pacific Rim to be annpunced this week."

-Steve Rennie

I was addicted to Incubus. My addiction took a hiatus and now it's all coming back.
And now, here it is! On April 12, a public announcement was released and a teaser poster!
