My first try at Rock The Riles 2010

After Rock Ed Radio had it's final episode weeks or days after the closure of NU107, I decided to have a try of this yearly event by RockEd Philippines called Rock The Riles

It happened last December 12, 2010 at 8 MRT stations

Another reason was to catch my fellow brewster Eljohn's band called LTNS (or Long Tine No See, a band completely composed of blind persons)

I had my first stop at MRT-Cubao station to catch Eljohn's band at around noon. I just saw the area and there's no completer set-up yet at that area and here's the proof that it's my first time. I didn't know (but I already had the adjustments) that you can't stay at an MRT station (at least coz I wanna watch) no longer than 75 minutes or I'll gonna expect the bad consequences. I had a plan that time but I just went back to MRT-Buendia station to think of a better plan. LTNS played at before 1pm. I also some of the brewsters that I know in the area

On Site: Pupil Listening Party at Robot Resto Lounge

Last January 11, (or should I say 1.11.11) I got a news tweet from Ely Buendia that there's gonna be a listening party for the Pupil's 3rd album Limiters of The Infinity Pool at Robot resto in Makati City

I got excited coz I was my first time to be in a listening party. What's more, it's open to the public. I already some online stuff of some bands with their own listening parties but sad to know that they only open that to their closest friends

I was already outside of the venue at before 8pm with my mobile device as my ally. Too bad that night, I never had a companion so that I can still mingle within the area. Good thing that I saw those Eheads fans that I met online and thru the Eheads Final Set last March 2009

Minutes before 9pm when the album started to surround the sound within the area. Of course, the whole band was already there. I also saw a lot of celebs like Tim Yap, Kevin Roy, Mario Dumaual, almost the whole members of Itchyworms and others. I also Shawn Yao (but only thru a photo that was posted in a website). Media people as usual were also present to cover the event

Minutes before 9:30-ish when they played the album once again. From what I heard, I was very pleased to have the album soon (even though it was already on sale in the venue). I must that this will be one of the best local releases this year

By the way, here's a Youtube video that I saw from MYX News

My Experience at the 3rd Brewrats Anniversary Party

After 6 months, I finally had a chance to blog and share my experience on the 3rd Anniversary Party of The Brewrats which happened last August 28, 2010 at Headstock Bar in Quezon Ave. in QC

A month before this, I'm really excited for this one because of so many factors. One is that I will not gonna be an OP brewster (coz a lot a brewsters already recognized me esp. in the birth of Facebook and Twitter as well as the regular brewsters that I met since RT days). Second is a possibility that this might be the last anniversary party of the show (from what reliable infos that I saw online, because of their station closed last Sept. 30). Third was because they had a theme which was to wear an 80s attire

7pm was the time that I really had a chance to go out of our house for some reasons. I was in a hurry mode coz I want to watch the anticipated showing of some Strangebrew episodes (even though I already had the DVD, I don't know at that time if they gonna show some episodes which are not included in the said DVD). I already had an 80s outfit which was inspired from a famous local movie.

I already arrived at 9pm as I had to refresh myself before I went to the venue. It was brewster Bolpen of Makati who took care of collecting of entrance (FYI, if you're not in 80s attire, you need to pay 100 pesos and you'll be also included in a raffle). To my surprise, those combined in 80s attire and cosplayers are not that significant compared to all the persons "in civilian clothing" . That means, the 80s night was not that relevant but Angel, Tado and Ramon did their job in their clothing

Unlike the 1st ever Brewrats-related party that I attended way back 2008 in Xaymaca Bar, the brewsters that already knew my face gave me some high-fives and greetings. The atmosphere was so hot that time but I got to managed to do some tweeting. I just saw the brewsters just partying to the tune of Pedicab songs

The bands Reklamo and FMD also gave us a rocking night as the "rats" had a "rockeoke" set which we really had a delight

There were also free cans of beer courtesy of station. 99.5 RT's Migz with a Z was also there at the event

The show almost ended at 1am which was I had a lot more energy that time to party which I felt a little "bitin" feeling. Because it was an 80s night, I just enjoyed all of the famous 80s songs brought by the DJ of the bar. One of those songs played was The Cure's Friday I'm In Love

Tado was the last "rat" who left in the venue. I'm online in Twitter that time and I even saw the real-time of Angel as she tweeted that she enjoyed the night and she's on her way home

Me and some brewsters were the last one who left the area at already past 3am.

Overall, I'm happy and contented to the one most significant Brewrats-related events that I attended.
