-way back 96 guys saw you sa puerto galera.. glad your still kickin and rollin.. more power.. more music..

those gigs in puerto were some of the best! lots of memories in puerto......sleeping in the sand, face down and with a mighty hangover :evil:

watching the gigs in some of the bars in puerto were also rad! like the time sammy from SPY had his guitar plugged into a karaoke machine using his pignose as a preamp...it's all in the hands baby!!

Mabuhay ang Blue Rats!   Are you still gigging at the Hobit's?  By the way,  I really miss the Show at Araneta.  More power for you guys!

The only reason he may have looked french is that big sch---z...... hehehe  :-D 

Actually Joe is an American of Italian descent and one of the hottest, most soulful sax players and nicest gentlemen ever to have hit Philippine shores. He's been on this thread several times -- look it up.

A few years ago, he really found his true calling -- both as a musician and as a person -- and now only performs in service of his church. He was truly the core of the Rats and we miss him dearly (you listenin' Joe Boy?!!!).

There's a permanently open slot in the band should he ever decide to hop back in.  :wink:

When that guy Bruce interviewed us at Hobbit House that evening, he told me that he asked you to send him a photo of you with your Gibsons. Then he asked me to also send him one with all of mine.

I said, "...with ALL of mine?..."

He replied, "Yup, just a shot with you and all your Gibsons", and he gave me his card.

"Uh, ok. I'll see what I can do", I replied.

So I got home, thought about it, and finally figured, "Naaah.... ma-iskandalo pa".

Respectfully declined in the interest of .........prudence (actually, avoiding scandal).

Hehehe.  :-D :-D :-D

Kim still has an open slot with the Rats when she can make the gigs. She was promoted at work sometime in September/October last year, but as a result of that promotion, she's found it nearly impossible to schedule herself in. So pabugso-bugso lang. We've missed her, but Dopedeeva's covered the bases very nicely along with Lefty's rocking the house when he steps up to the mic.

We'll see what 2008 brings -- hopefully we see more of Kim, maybe we'll have a few surprises up the sleeve.  :wink:

Noobie.... sandali.... confused na tuloy ako. If you've jammed with us, you're always welcome to do so again. But (no offense) am not sure who you are!  :|  :-P

Can you PM me and let us know?

Forgot the second part of your question: Next gig is this Friday, 1 February at Handlebar on Polaris St. in Makati. Drop in bud.

Really now... I think it was the prospect of operating the panoramic feature of your camera that daunted you.  :-D

TT - i think you mistook Joe (sax guy) for Tom Ep.  would be cool to see an old pic of Tom on a 'good hair day' tho.  :-)

i think Tom joined BR later pa.
