mall tour, etc.

We had a gig yesterday at the wonderful robinson's metro east. marcos highway reprezent, sta lucia reprezent, far far away and pretty early for a gig: we set up around 430pm and played from 4:45 til around 5:20. 8 songs? i think.

this wasn't the first shirley mall gig though, we played at the market! market! activity center once upon a time. jing and joe were absent so ean played the bass and i played the guitar, that was supposed to be a one hour set. we played all the songs we knew, we doubled all the solo parts (4 measures instead of 2, 8 measures instead of 4, haha), and even with the extended spiels ("warm crowd!" haha) we were only able to play around 45 minutes. that's what short pop gems get you, short sets. haha.

anyway back to metro east, we hadn't gigged in a while (the last one was the 30th of last month) so we really really missed each other hahaha. the attorney and the chanteuse had new haircuts, kathy had a tan from galera, joe just came back from the mountains, zig had an ice cream party at the office, heidi had a shoot with sam concepcion, and ean was being devious haha.

a jingmobile ride and a bit of mall exploration followed by a large scoop of vanilla softserve dipped in chocolate (for me) and then we were on stage. the set was theme song - patintero/habulan/larong kalye - sa madaling salita - wealth of nations - masamang damo - xmaslites - bato - tsuper. long set. haha.

we met wayne! hi wayne. he works for level-up games and he's a multiply friend, and apparently he's heard of the band before, which is very very cool. pa-post nung pics natin! :)

after the gig we tagged along to oi wag dito's practice at pinoy penguin, where i was interviewed for our band's documentary about how important the band members were individually to the band, and i guess i was thinking about how it felt to see them again after the time off and i was talking about what their part in the band was when i made this great realization that i think i've talked about before but i think i put it in better words last night. i don't remember it verbatim, but i remember the feeling after the interview and it was kind of big.

i want the docu and the album to come out na haha.

see you guys tonight at route 196, bring your friends! happy birthday bandmates!

just rolling about on the floor (just rolling about on the floor)

last night we played at nightwish bar in malate for the first leg of the pulp magazine and the world battle of the bands bar tour. apparently we are ranked 14th out of 15 bands, and if we don't get into the top 10 by tomorrow, we're gonna be eliminated.

help.

hahaha

in other news we played at the cure night @ route 196 after the nightwish gig, and even though we missed the set of our favorite band taken by cars, we were in high spirits because of slight inebriation and the wonderful wonderful powers of kowloon house dimsum :D

we played sa madaling salita, catch, why can't i be you, just like heaven, and patintero/habulan/inbetween days, then for our encore (because the shirley fans @ route 196 wanted more hahaha) we played bato.

we just love the cure so much.

our favorite bassist mr jing gaddi, also played for the cure cover band disintegration! they were great. try to catch them if the cure night happens again. haha.
