With all the shitty tarps & billboards that politicians & advertisers clutter our city with, I am extremely grateful to the people behind this great art initiative to decorate Edsa with murals using paint that absorbs pollution : )

Learn more about the awesome project here : )

Crowd screamed as Simple Plan’s Pierre Bouvier said on stage “It’s more fun in the Philippines,” during their concert last January 12, 2012 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Seb Lefebvre, guitarist of SP, also tweeted “Everything is more fun in the Philippines. I believe it now!”

More photos from the show to be posted on MY FB page and on Dayly’s.

Passing on Dennis Garcia’s take on the new Department of Tourism’s (DOT) ‘fun’ slogan. Mind you, Dennis is über-talented! Founder and lyricist of the famed Hotdog band in the 1970s, he is also a bass player, filmmaker, an artist and professionally, an advertising Creative Director with stints …

KAMIKAZEE’S DRUMMER BORDS PROPOSED TO HIS GIRLFRIEND IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS AT THE TANDUAY RHUM ROCKFEST 2011! 

What happened here: Jay asked Bords’ girlfriend to get on stage and take their picture with the crowd doing the OK sign. He said they will post it on their fb page and tag each and everyone in the audience! And so everybody did! Haha Then boom! Surprise! Bords is on his knees popping the question!

The crowd cheered, she said yes, they kissed, they hugged and everyone was happy! 

Congratulations to them!

More photos from the Tanduay Rhum Rockfest 2011 soon!

Aaaaand the Flaming Onion Skinned Pinoys are at it again…

The pseudo nationalistic Pinoys are all over this foreigne’rs blog on how terrible Manila is.

“Manila itself is a shambles. The traffic is AWFUL (I seem to be using a lot of capital letters in this post) and nothing has been added to shops or other amenities (whereas e.g. Bangkok has transformed itself into an almost livable city).

Look: people will say the Filipino people are nice, and indeed they are polite – we Brits might say “smarmy” – obsequious or ingratiating are maybe less pleasant words. But they do try. That does take the edge off the sheer misery of a crumbling, filthy, depressing city and an economy that exists only on the remittances of the smart ones who have left.”

Not exactly a lie, & yet some Pinoys are all up in arms in defending our nation’s honor by typing in all caps & hurling incoherent insults towards the blogger. Kung gusto niyo ipagtangol ang dangal ng bansa at ON TOPIC, magsulat kayo ng comment na pinagisipan, huwag mo patunayan sa ibang lahi na inutil ang mga Pinoy.

konteksto.
