Going back to Rock music

I’m currently under Rock Rehab - kind of my made up term for this period of time I’ve decided to lock myself away from all other types of music except of course, Rock. This involves hours worth of listening to Rock-only playlists with artists like Radiohead, The New Pornographers, The Decemberists, Wolfmother, Deftones, The […]

My Davao cuisine photo contest entry no. 1

This is my 1st entry for the Davao cuisine.

Davao Cuisine is an ambiguous idea. But when I began to listen to myself (and my gut), the first place I could think of was the eatery nearest to the hearts of a Davaoenyo’s POCKET. There’s a quaint little eatery somewhere between corner Anda (Now, […]

Weird, tired, all over the place.

Yesterday.
Thankfully the NBI people were nice to me especially when they looked down on my form and saw Occupation: Student / Disc Jockey. Lined up as early as 8:30 AM to get my NBI clearance only to find out that the cashier wouldn’t be open until 10. So I dropped by […]

The underground

Over the week I’ve sat in conversations with my bandmates on stuff like how the Davao underground music scene is doing. Sad to say, the shape sounds pretty bad. It isn’t like last summer, when there were prime spots as to where underground bands could play, i.e. the now d’funked G Rock bar […]

Extra-planetary life action

I almost forgot to mention about this new bar that opened up at McArthur Highway (right next to the old Petron gas station and in front of Ateneo high). It’s called Moonstomp and the place is very Mayrics-ish. I swear, I have found my Ibiza! It’s owned by one of the coolest […]

Local scenery: Music Geek-Speak

My apologies, my apologies! I haven’t updated in the longest time but you have to forgive me if I have to attend to the little people who amuse me outside this blogosphere. I was in Kadayawan last week having fun and was very, very busy getting - shall we say - intoxicated by […]
