they hate Beyond here coz they're not from mainland they say.... hehehe  :-o

di ko alam kung sad.

pero a band i am now not friends with(mejo lumaki ulo nila, actually halos showband sila), i booked for a major music festival.

kasabay nila pedicab, chongkeys, sandwich(you get the drift, its quite a show). the setting was on beach up north and it was well attended since its festival concert for motorcycle riders sponsored by one of the biggest motorcycle dealers in the country.so ang audience, all over the philippines.

now this band, actually lived with me sa beach for almost a month, me booking them on almost all gigs i can find for them in that paradise. i even lend them my guitars since wala pa sila pambili. they are quite good actually, if you think in terms of proficiency. pero mejo corny and cheesy yung arrive ng banda.

well anyway,so ang scenario isang linggo na sila tumutugtog and yung vox mejo strained na on the last few gigs.

So dumating yung major event and since gusto ny maayos boses nya, di sya nagsalit buong araw at kalamansi juice lang all throughout the day while kami and the rest of his band, umiinom na starting umaga. They were the first to perform at 4pm. They did a few soundchecks. okay ang boses. The crowd got hyped up. So ayun nabuhayan yung banda so tinod nila performance and they did about 5 songs. The crowd asked for an encore kasi nga okay e.

Last song, patapos na. Nag request yung vox na taasan volume ng mic para swabe.

Ehhhhhhhhhh...........

 On the last high note na kakantahin ng vox biglang pumiyok sya, as in yun na lang sana perfect na. Ang lakas pa ng pag ka piyok. Yung dalawang gitarista nya biglang tumalikod at halatang napatawa. Tas kami na nasa artists tents napa awwwwww. Hahaha. Comedy. Tawa kami ng tawa.

The rest of the gig nag inom ng sobra yung vox. Di ata nakayanan yung kahihiyan na pumiyok sya on a major stage. Hahaha. I still get a laugh thinking about it.

@ bakit?

i think this was the one that Harley Davidson sponsored?  :idea: well haha ganyan talaga ang buhay!


nitong huli lang tumutugtog kami nung rock n roll band (a band i session for) and we were supposed to be 4 out of a set of 9 bands. kaso may mga bagong salta na banda - an all chic crew (and i mean ALL CHIC walang tapon) na nagmamakaawa na pasingitin daw namin sila kasi may lagare daw sila sa BKB (nasa Tremolo kami) - apparently, they have been turned down by all of the bands they had asked. so kami nung bassist, since kami nauna, pinagisipan namin. ako inaantok, at medyo malapit ng malasing. sa akin game lang, kaso yung vocalist namin ayaw. yung drummer, semi ok sa kanya. so pumayag kami, kaso since late na sila nagsabi, we chose not to play anymore kasi di kami pwede abutin ng dulo - maaga pa pasok ng drummer namin.

so these kids played, nagpasalamat naman sila na pinasingit namin sila. they played, they rocked, they we osam. while we had decided not to play, i decided to try and convince my guys na baka trip pa nila tumugtog - kaso ayaw na nila. they decided wag na talaga tumugtog (rak na rak ako nito) so major disappointment sa min lahat.

pag baba namin, andun yung mga bata...nag kkwentuhan and all... kako bakit di pa kayo umaalis? di na daw nila tinuloy lagare nila, they had decided daw bago namin sila pinasingit.

aba [apple], sana sinabi nila di ba para nakagtugtog kami at sila na nagpadulo.

i remember it was our first gig at route196
after our set, our drummer told me that meron daw parang nakatayo na tao sa likod ko. matangkad, naka-black, masama tingin sa akin and gulo-gulo yung buhok...pero it was impossible kasi sobrang lapit ko lang sa amp sa likod ko and hindi naman siksikan ang route196 that night. so yun na yung freaky story ko.

- those fears of having IBS before/during a gig
- traffic
- missing amp speaker cables (happened twice,so i keep 1 in my pedal board bag and 1 in my bass players equipment bag)
- i had a wah pedal fail on me last year the switch for some reason the nuts and washers got loose that it spoiled an entire song, now i use washers with internal tooth locks and i threadlock glue to make sure my wah doesnt do that

- "the guitar that couldnt be used", this happened 3 yrs ago..before every gig i prep my guitars and before i leave i always check it twice(action, trussrod etc)..at this point i only used my warrior/benford and wanted to introduce to use my suhr..so i did, this was summer and when i pulled up the suhr to put in a stand the neck had bowed with no relief so it was buzzing all over..i had no tools for it, so i had to tune/up/down for the entire gig, then it happened again when i took the train down to madison the neck had no relief..and yes i went through my dealer and the company and the responses were not comforting..but the guitar was great when its at home..

- HOSA cables no more..i like hosa cables but i fear them for my speaker cables..this year we played summerfest twice and you get crew to help you setup, soundcheck etc..when we were done playing the tech helping me unload was like a real-life paul bunyan or bigfoot, he pulled the cable off my amp (the right way) and the cable just broke to pieces..the tip separated from the shaft and he looked at me and said 'uh, your cable didnt make it', i just said the normal asian response of 'its ok haha'..i saw the whole thing and just couldnt believe it how it easily it broke..he kept apologizing when he helped me loaded my 2x12 (in one hand) and amp head in another(2 trips for me or 1 using my dolly) , HOSA did replace it with a new cable..but since then i made my own using neutrik 1/4 ends

- harley fest gig 2014, i use those schaller style strap locks which are cool, they work etc..but i've since been using threadlock adhesives to make sure they those nuts dont fly out. it was actually funny, it was during (verse part of wolf) that my guitar suddenly fell off from the upperhorn so i had to play kneeling down LOL..i had to call the tech from the headlining band to help me find the lock nut and washer which he did. i've been using this stuff since 08 when i tried them

college days: we played a gig at UST. we played mostly RHCP covers back then...pagdating sa venue, acoustic gig pala. there was even an acapela?-boyband group before our set. anyway, buti na lang they rented amps and drums. we still played pero we tried to play as clean as possible para di kami mashado stand-out. may pumalakpak naman pero medyo nahiya kami (kahit kasalanan naman talaga yun ng organizer). we also got paid...one of the cute-chic members of the org approached me and asked for my hand...then she handed me 500 pesos. wala pang 15 mins ubos na ung 500 sa 7-eleven.

During one of our recent gigs I got carried away by the song and started jumping to the beat. I stepped on the switch of the power strip which brought down my amp and effects pedal. Of course the whole band stared at me with their confused look which made it even more obvious. :)

Third day of that same gig, I played the intro for the wrong song. The bassist got so confused that he started flipping through his charts thinking that he had the wrong song. His actions made me think I was right so I yelled at everyone to restart the song without stopping. Of course I was still playing the wrong song lol! The other guitarist got so confused that he could not even start strumming. The vocalists didn't know what to sing. All the while the drummer maintained a steady beat which somehow saved us from a complete screw up. We were now 30 seconds into the wrong song. I checked the bassist again but he was still flipping his charts. I saw what was on his iPad and I realised my mistake. Problem was, what was on his ipad was also the wrong song and I was about to play the intro of another wrong song lol! Good thing the vocalists started singing the tune and lyrics even if the instruments were in complete chaos. That was enough to kickstart everyone and we made it through the entire song "as if nothing happened" (pffffttt!!!).
Melody over speed anytime!

Lol, great list Bryan. The necks are probably prone to temperature change. Haven't had a problem like that with any guitars I played, thankfully. I try not to leave them in the car's trunk or anywhere that's either too cold or hot. That would effin suck since I only bring one of everything (except picks and strings) everytime I play out.

hmmmmm parang alam ko na kung anong banda to. tama ba, yung drummer yung pinakamaganda sakanila? =))

...madalas kayo sa BKB ano? malamang kilala niyo sila hehe part pa naman ng "appreciation gesture" sana ng banda was to give them lots of guitar parts with "maximum pelvic thrusting" (well sabi ng lead guitarist namin)


pics naman ng bandang chikas!

sino ba yan?

pero grabe fizz..kaasar yung na dupe kayo..sa style style nila..bummer..

gulo kasi ng productions..

totoo yan bro. recently we almost had a strike three from them (home turf pa naman namin) in that the bassist and i made like stink papunta sa venue despite the fact we waz all busy. instead of being part of the first five, we were bumped almost to the last of the show - anhahaba pa naman ng mga kanta ng mga kasamahan namin!!!

buti nagka-aregluhan at na-verify na prior sa pagdating namin we were guaranteed an early slot.

pero pasensya na mga sir, wala ko pics nung said chic band. i am hoping to see them again some time, kasi apart from what happened, they were really good musicians  :)
