Just My Opinion: Urbandub's Disbandment

4/8/2015 8:56:59 PM

Fifteen years in the industry; perhaps a typical life expectancy for a music band; Yes, after one and a half decade, they will part ways.

The Rundown Slam: WrestleMania 31

Like a holiday jingle, “it’s that wonderful time of the year” again, as the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) staged their annual entertainment spectacular event once again. And by the way, it comes with a play button.

WrestleMania 31 was a heck of a show at the Silicon Valley. Forget that it aired on a Sunday afternoon—with a sun-shinyyy day atmosphere. It may appeared scorching hot as shit right there, but you can never deny the event was hotter as it gets.

As much as I want to tackle the pre-show which featured 2 matches, I hadn’t watched them so I beg your pardon in advance and instead move on to the main program.

Pinoy ang Semana Santa…

4/4/2015 1:06:46 PM

Parang sa kahit anong panahon pa ang magkaroon dito sa Republika ng Pilipinas, ay may kanya-kanya tayong bersyon ng pagdiriwang ng Semana Snata, mula Visita Iglesia hanggang Senakulo, hanggang Alay-Lakad, hanggang Kursipiksyon. At walang masama dito. Patunay lamang ito kung ano tayo bilang isang lahi na may likas na debosyon sa ating paniniwala.

Ngunit, Pinoy ang Semana Santa kapag…

Playback: Alasmedya – Fantasy

After a Good Friday hiatus, I’m back to the blogosphere once again. And for this Black Saturday, I will share something that I hope most of you guys will like. Especially if you’re been shrugging away from the upbeat noise recently.

Since I’ve been digging the independent music scene for about a few months already, I found one of my new favorites aside from the ones I listened to before.

And just a few weeks ago, I was at the Bih Zahr restobar at South Triangle, Quezon City to support Sparks Productions’ “Hindi Po Ito Gig, Group Project Lang Po” event. I’ll give you some brief background about of the seven acts who performed there.

Just 15 days into this year, we had a visitor. And it’s not just a visitor, but an iconic one.

What am I talking about?

Ano Ang Penitensya Mo?

4/2/2015 2:16:43 PM

Psst.

Ikaw. Oo, ikaw nga. Ikaw na nagsasabing mahal mo ang Diyos, ‘di ba? Ikaw na nagyayabang (na hindi sa masamang kahulugan) sa iyong pananampalataya sa Kanya.

Alam ko may araw naman ng Linggo para magpahinga. Pero ‘tol. Semana Santa na. Pwede ka munang prumeno mula sa mga makamundong gawain mo. After all, tao ka pa rin naman na nagkakasala madalas ay dapat lang din naminsan ay mahimasmasan sa pananampalaya, di ba?

Uso magdasal. As long as bukal naman sa iyong kalooban ang iyong ginagawa. Yun naman ang mahalaga ‘di ba?

Pero hindi ako nandito para mang-asar (dahil 14 na oras nang tapos ang April Fool’s Day, at ang mga bagay na may kinalaman sa Diyos ay madalas sineseryoso talaga), at hindi rin kita pipilitin. Bagkus nagtatanong lang ako na may halong suhestiyon at payo nga lang.

“Ano ang penitensya mo?”

Since it’s gonna be another heck-of-an-event this coming Sunday evening in Silicon Valley (Monday morning Manila time), expect the millions (and millions!) of wrestling fans around the globe to witness the World Wrestling Entertainment’s (WWE) 31st annual spectacle, popularly known as WrestleMania!

And what’s a WrestleMania for the SlickMaster – along with his followers (whom, by the way, are just countable by your fingertips!) without a “pre-take,” right? 

Talk about predictions, just like the way we have last year.
