Who's your Daddy? The Zombies live in Manila!!!

The Zombies: Jim, Colin, Rod, Steve and Tom (Philippine Concert Poster) What's your name?   Who's your daddy?   Is he rich like me?   For almost 3 years, I thought that the song “Time of the Season” was a song by The Byrds, as part of the mixtape done by Travis Barker (Blink 182) and DJ AM (Crazy Town) in which was in heavy rotation on my Ipod. And two months ago, I was just enlightened that it was the English band The Zombies, who created that song! (The Byrds song is Turn, Turn, Turn and I got it all mixed up.) Colin Blunstone Last Oct 19, 2012, a piece of music history unfolded in front of my eyes and fulfilled my ears with joy as I witnessed The Zombies performed live here in the Philippines at the PICC Hall in Pasay City! Colin Blunstone The original members of the Zombies: Colin Blunstone on vocals and Rod Argent on keyboards were accompanied by this talented line up: Jim Rodford on bass (The Kinks founding member, also playe...

Deftones - To Have and to Hold

Image
It is destined to be... ...Like Nostradamus foreseeing the future of rock concert scene in Singapore and Manila!  After seeing their tour list on their website last October that Deftones will have an Australian tour and Perth is the last city in February 2011, it was strategically correct that there is a big chance that they are going to push for an Asian tour.

Bringing Deftones to Manila is the biggest follow up concert indeed from NIN.  And LAMC Productions will also bring Deftones in Singapore on February 16, 2011. I imagine this event as a gigantic fire cracker from the recent Chinese New Year to hit Singapore!!! (Re...

The Resurrection: The Stone Roses Live in Singapore & Hong Kong!!!

Image
The Stone Roses: Alan 'Reni' Wren, Gary 'Mani' Mounfield, Ian Brown and John Squire. When I first heard the news last year ( 18 October 2011)  that the Stone Roses has reunited, I was so very happy that Ian Brown and John Squire already settled their differences for freaking 15 years of not talking to each other. And when the news came out last April that the Stone Roses will be having a world tour plus Hong Kong and Singapore are part of the list, that great news really made me cry! The Stone Roses (1989) The Stone Roses are an English rock band formed in Manchester in 1983. The classic lineup consisted of vocalist Ian Brown, guitarist John Squire, bassist Gary "Mani" Mounfield, and drummer Alan "Reni" Wren. I became a big fan of the Roses when I first heard their single, “Love Spreads” from the radio sometime late 1994 and I was hooked! The awesome rocking riff and the lyrics were really magical! While waiting for my next...
