Since JaeDee removed her article from her blog, most likely because NU107 Execs want her lips sealed, I will repost her article for the viewing public...

This is jaeDee the NewsGoose with some shocking news for rock fans in Metro Manila… The one and only rock station in town – NU107, The Home of NU Rock – will soon be the Home of NO ROCK! That’s right, I’ve received information from three reliable sources, all part of NU107′s inner circle, that the radio station will finally say goodbye to it’s rock image and shift to a ‘masa’ pop sound under new management. The reason for the image change was reportedly a financial decision on the owners’ part. The transformation won’t be overnight though. According to one of my sources, starting this November the

Concert Recall: Lotus Eaters Live in Manila August 3, 2002 Rockwell Club Tent. The Lotus Eaters: Jeremy Kelly and Peter Coyle / Early Years I was trying to recall all the concerts I have attended for the last few years. Being gulity on not attending the following concerts here in Manila: Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam, Cranberries, Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth and Foo Fighters, I need to start my blood thirst concert viewing ASAP!

Deftones makes me feel like more!!! I eat, live and breathe the music of Deftones!!! Deftones L-R: Stephen Carpenter (guitar), Sergio Vega (bass), Chino Moreno (vocals), Frank Delgado (DJ) and  Abe Cunningham  (Drums)   Since I discovered their music in my high school days here in Manila, the emergence of nu metal and the release of their sophomore effort “Around the Fur,” my interest to the band grew! Besides their metal influence, I was also amazed that they have 80’s new wave music inclinations too. I bought my “Around the Fur” cassette tape as a Christmas gift to myself last '97 and played it until I was able to play in my guitar the songs “My Own Summer.” I and my friends also jammed the songs “Around the Fur” and “Be Quiet and Drive.”  It is one of the albums that accompanied me on those sleepless nights and examination reviews.
