The Taboan Irony

Do you ever notice that sign above the Taboan stage? I think it goes, Support Artistic Freedom…
Which is kind of ironic really. Consider that they have to audition bands before they get to play in Taboan. Consider that they mesh out the bands that are NOT “patok sa masa” or whose music is too un-mainstream for normal people to appreciate. Consider that a lot of bands in Davao are really not up for un-mainstreaming themselves. There isn’t that much freedom there after all.

Whoa. I thought anyone could play there as long as they can sing. But I don’t hang out at Taboan enough to know.
Ooooohhhh….nothing, just clueless…
rnb na happy birthday, alternative rock na separate lives, a thousand miles na reggae…
Oh-kaaaay…
i agree with this one! very ironic aight. hahahhaa.. so funny… no screaming allowed and everything. pag manok ka ng taboan alang problema just like those mainstreamish bands with sucky music.. i think the theme should go like this “ARTISTIC-kuno FREEDOM”/// wala silang ka-art-art to be frank lang.
TABOAN is for showbands. that’s why i hate it there. nya!
