Playback: MilesExperience – Love Supreme

08/17/2015 11:56:14 AM


For such a-bit-long while I became a fan of a band called MilesExperience. Perhaps, just a few weeks since I immersed myself into the local independent music scene.

And can anyone persuade me to do otherwise? Nah, don't even dare.

Non-story

8/11/2015 5:42:21 PM

Naalala ko tuloy yung isang balita ukol sa pamilyang ito, na pinangalan ang anak nila sa isang klase ng ‘direksyon’.’ Pambihira, angas ‘di ba? Nakakasuya lang.

Maiba naman. Fast-forward sa dos-mil-kinse. 

Ano ang meron sa videong ito?

Here is the Kardashian rant. Sorry, I lost my mind a bit, although it was partially in jest! I did feel better though after I was done.See more Good Day Orlando videos: http://bit.ly/JLScxX #FOX35

Playback: It's a Non-story!

8/11/2015 5:14:27 PM

Perhaps the world of news-gathering is changing; where as long as the element of being ‘prominent’ is there, and at the same time, adding the ‘controversy’ into the mix.

Hope-for-Hosts No More

Alam ko. Nadismaya tayo sa nangyari. Hindi tayo ang pinalad na mag-host para sa 2019 Basketball World Cup, ang pinakamalaking event ng FIBAmaliban pa sa taunang NBA Finals. At malamang, aabutin pa tayo ng ilang taon (o dekada, pero huwag naman sana) para mabigyan pa tayo ng pagkakataon na maghost ng torneo, na huli nating ginawa noong 1978 dito sa Manila.

"True" SONA Kuno

08/06/2015 02:32:00 PM

Noong isang gabi, tinanong ko ang ermat ko sa opinyon niya ukol sa State of the Nation Address ni Vice President Jejomar Binay habang nagbabasa siya ng isang pahayagan.
Ako: “'Nay, naniniwala ka ba kay Binay?”
Si Ermat “Hindi, anak. Pare-pareho lang sila e.”
Tapos ang usapan; at nagsimula ang panahon para magnilay-nilay.

Playback: Rockin1000 – Learn To Fly (Foo Fighters)

07/31/2015 01:27:16 PM

Say, how do you persuade an international musical performer—be it a solo diva or singer, or a group of rockstars—to come to your home country and perform for a night of festivity?

How about orchestrating a huge—and I mean HUGE—orchestra or rock bands? Just like what ROCKIN1000 did on Italy.

Ano ang meron sa litratong ito?


Malamang, sidewalk. Malamang, umaga (maaliwalas pa ang mga ulap e). Malamang, maraming tao; at malamang, marami ring sasakyan.

Pero, ang mensahe? Malamang.

Lakasan ang Tunog!

Ngayon ay ang linggo ng OPM. Naging mandato na ito ayon sa isang batas na pinasa ilang taon na ang nakalilipas.

Dissing the Pointless Diss

7/26/2015 5:55:33 PM

Isa sa mga pinakamahirap na usapin sa buhay—maliban sa pera, pulitika, at pag-ibig—ay ang relihiyon. Bakit? Dahil dyan mo malalaman kung sino ang sarado sa bukas. Oo, sarado ba ang pinto sa kanyang kamalayan, sa kanyang pag-unawa, o sa kabuuang paksa. Kaya nga may tinatawag na “Sarado Katoliko” para sa mga nananampalataya sa pinakapopuladong relihiyon sa Pilipinas at “open minded” naman sa mga taong liberal ang utak.

Kahapon ay ang State of the Nation Address. Ang taunang talumpati ng Pangulo kung saan siya ay nag-uulat sa kanyang gabinete, mga kasamahan sa pamahalaan, at higit sa lahat—ay sa buong samabyanan.

Ngayon, ano na? Maliban sa nag-mistlang warzone ang kahabaan ng Batasang Pambansa at Commonwealth Avenue dahil sa samu't saring kilos protesta at iba pang mga kilos na may kinalaman rito?

Upcoming: SiKuna

Here’s something to kickstart August as the Philippines’ National Language Month, a collaboration of different art forms that will surely give you a refreshing—and reawakening taste to the culture of our country, and this is called The SiKuna Festival.

Well, things are about to take a swerve as SummerSlam approaches. But before we head to a season switch, we got a warfare called Battleground, where some of the feuds had some sort of very long-but-almost forgettable beginnings.

Brawls for the Guys With Balls

07/23/2015 09:00:57 AM


There's nothing more awesome than what happened last Monday night on WWE's flagship program Raw. It reminds me of an old Scott Hall remark in WCW: “You want war? You're gonna get one!”

And indeed, every single member of the WWE Universe was treated for al all-out brawl between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker.

Nobody saw it coming. Not even a lot of smarks. And if there are few, maybe we're talking about those legit and religious wrestling observers here.
