Top Junk’s Tuesday Vargas

Sha and me arrived at Al’s Bar last Saturday at around 10pm after giving in to our Mango Bravo craving at Conti’s. In the event, I bumped into Ricky Manzano, and to Kin who have some stuff also on exhibit at Al’s Bar. I felt so bad that my Speedlite had zero battery life during the event that I was not able to take much good photos because of lighting. Thus, the lesson here is not to forget to charge the batteries for the Speedlite. (more…)

Emil Miras of Blue Ketchup

This is a long overdue post. Anyway, it was my first time to watch Blue Ketchup live weeks back and thank you to Prex (their road manager) for inviting me at Hard Rock. I did an album review of their album “Kwento Pop” at TitikPilipino several months ago and did a commentary on their music video Bro here in my blog. (more…)

I’d like to invite you to this event this Saturday organized by RedSlim at Al’s Bar in BF Paranaque. The entrance is 150 bucks if you come in after 7pm. A lot of bands will be playing and a lot of photos will be on exhibit (mine included :D). I hope you could come this Saturday.

The news came in from the Eraserheads mailing list.

I hope everything will be fine for Francis Magalona and his family.

So the concert’s not going to be held at CCP grounds as first reported. It’s going to be held at Fort Global City which does not really surprise me if they move it there. Until now, there are still no news yet on how to get tickets. There are some rumors that say that one has to present empty 20 packs of cigarette packs (most likely, the ones in 20’s). As of now, you just have to register at marlboro.ph just to be sure.

This upcoming event will be held on July 31st at Mag:net Bonifacio High Street. The artists who will be performing that night are Bembol Rockers, Sitti, Juan Pablo Dream and Olivia. Tickets will be sold at 300 pesos with 1 free drink. But, for groups of 4 or more, tickets will be sold at 250 pesos each.

“Huwag Kang Matakot” (originally by Eraserheads) is Chris’ latest video in YouTube. Aside from this particular song, other songs that he covered on video are: Sugarfree’s Dear Kuya, Parokya ni Edgar’s Sayang and Itchyworms’ Penge Naman. Chris started gaining 35 subscribers in YouTube after 2 months of joining and has 1,404 channel views as of this writing.
