2CELLOS - On The Road Tour Live in Singapore 2015

ABBEY: Yahoo, we won. This time it is a pair of tickets for the live performance at Kallang theatre of 2Cellos; Croatian music artists who play, of course, the cello. This is courtesy of The Exchange bar. Just like and share, and lots of luck. 

After their opening of classical music (JS Bach's Air), they told the audience that they can take all the pictures we want during their entire performance. They encourage us to sing ("You can sing if you know the lyrics because we don't know the lyrics :) ) and dance as well. How cool is that? Part of their repertoire is their Celloverse, Thuderstruck, With or without you, and The Book of love. The audience were on their feet when they played Trooper Overture, Highway to Hell and Smooth Criminal. It was unique and electrifying experience. A stringed instrument partnered with distortion and very good players, then it is a party. They ended with another classical, Pachelbel's Canon, and bid goodbye to us. 

Thanks, The Exchange.




WILL: I love classical music, the sounds produces by cellos, violins and magnificent orchestras. And few close people knew that. So when we saw that our favorite bar held a Facebook contest Abbey hit like and shared instantly and hoped to award the pair of tickets. And it is! Thanks The Exchange. 

2Cellos is not your ordinary classical cello players. Well, I knew that because of their youtube videos. But seeing them performing live is different. They are not that formal type of performer. They are the rock-n-roll version of classical genre. It seems that we attended a comedy show and rock and roll concert with a classical music at the end. 

I clapped, I stamped my foot, I holler and most importantly I laughed hard. Thanks 2Cellos for making mine and my husband's night wonderfully. Till next time. ;)

Bamboo World Tour 2015 (Bamboo with Mitoy and The Voice Kids) - Live in Singapore

ABBEY: Rivermaya was my wife's favourite when we were on high school. Being her as my crush I need to know the lyrics of their songs, just to impress. So I have memorized most of them and little did I know that it will help me enjoy Bamboo's concert last March 15 in Singapore Expo.

The Voice Kids winners and Mitoy made the front acts.

Few points I found to be room for improvements for the kids:
Darlene: Improve on how to interact more with your audience. The quality of the voice and diction should be looked into. Choose songs that is for your vocal range. Yes, you can belt out those high notes but it is annoying when you're on the lows.

Lyca: Another product of sympathy votes, I guess. Aegis songs, yes. But need to enhance your talent more.


JK: Continue to harness your voice and serenade those girls.


Darren: Yes you are the total package, but please change your repertoire. Please, please, please!!! You're a dude, not a gal; unless you aren't. Change it soon, else you'll see yourself as one of the judges in "Your Face Sounds Familiar". Also, with your current acts, it is as if Sarah Geronimo is on the house. Get your own identity, man.


Mitoy really prepared the mood of the audience for Bamboo. He entertained the guests well. And he kept on singing while the crowd mugged him for selfie.


Then the rock icon entered the stage and set it on fire with his Rivermaya tunes like Awit ng Kabataan, Hinahanap-hanap Kita, 214, and Elesi. He also sang Noypi, Tatsulok and Hallelujah.





WILL: Cause time may pass; But longer than it'll last I'll be by your side... Am I real?

We got a VIP ticket for discounted price. Again, thanks Dr. Love Shelly! 

We arrived late..2 hours late. But the show just started. Out of four, JK stands out for me. I knew Mitoy way way back when he is performing at Eat Bulaga. I admire his voice and his comedy antics that make the people dance along in his music. From there I am Mi-Toy-O Fans Club. 

Bamboo Mañalac! The man of the hour! Never fails to make me scream and sing-a-long to his music. It reminds me of my teenage years specially when he hit the crowd with Rivermaya's Ang Awit ng Kabataan. And suddenly my heart pound for the love of my country when I heard the "Tatsulok". The Noypi lingers to my veins as it described a life of a Filipino Expats. 

I Love Bamboo. Hope to see him in a reunion with other original Rivermaya.

Singapore GP 2012 Concert : Katy Perry

ABBEY: She's the one who closed the 2012 Singtel Formula 1 Grand Prix. After the final race and Vettel got the trophy we headed to the race track and have our way to Padang stage. A huge number of people flocked on the ground waiting for Katy. She was wearing what look like a sexy racing outfit with K and P marks at the back. She sang her top hit songs like Extraterrestrial, The one that got away, California Girls, Peacock, I kissed a girl, waking up in Vegas and Fireworks. A guy is lucky on that night when received a long smack from Katy. Her performance is great. No wonder why she was chosen for that Sunday concert.


WILL: I am Katy Perry fan and obviously this 2012 Singapore GP is a real deal, $178 for two concert of my fave artists and to see the burning skills of racing cars. 
      As Vettel popped the champagne, we immediately conquered the tracks to walk our way to the Padang Stage. We are in hurry since we only have 30mins before Katy starts to heat up the stage. Well, I am not wrong, we are late of a few minutes because Ms Perry almost finish the "Hot and Cold" song when we entered the FanZone. 
      As we got the spot, I loose myself and started to  sway, jumped and raise my hands along with her music. Sweat is all over me but I don't care. Abbey? He lingers every moment while he is taking snaps of this lazy eyed girl. 
      Again, thanks Singapore GP for the fanzone wristband. :)

Maroon 5 in Singapore GP 2012 Concert

ABBEY: Ring....ring....ring.... And the lights went out. People screamed as they wait for Maroon 5 to come out. It became louder when Adam sang the first few lines of Payphone. The crowd went crazy as the band played along. Payphone is a hit song and hearing it live will make you ecstatic. They also sang Lucky Strike, Won't go home without you, She will be loved, and Moves like Jagger. The audience sang with the band and danced too. Others even made posters for them. Their performance is worth the wait; good thing we got fanzone wristband :)


WILL:  Before leaving the scene on our Singapore F1 week, we examined the route that we must track for the next day, we don't want to miss a single word from Maroon 5. Haha. 
       8pm, we went to Padang Stage to watch Bananarama. Almost all in the fanzone knew them even the teenagers sings and sways along with their songs. While sitting on the grass, we stared on the big screen on the stage to see the race and patiently wait for the Maroon 5. 
        After the cars were done running, a loud phone rings from the speakers and the people screamed, including me. When I saw Adam, oh, Adam! Hehe. I intoxicated myself with his voice. Sing-a-long with every lyrics and danced off to the beat. 
        I love Maroon 5 since they start their business in music scene. Their songs were my companion every time I am all alone in a business trip, when I am sad, when my heart shattered into pieces. They made me stronger by their hit songs. 
        Thanks Abbey for letting me see them. Love u a lot :)

90.7 Radio (TLC) True Love Conversation


ABBEY:
Its fun listening to Papa Jack's program. Sometimes people will call just to confirm if Papa Jack will approve of their decision, others will make him angry because of what they did. One time a guy pose to be a new caller when in fact he was on-air months ago. This made Jack not pleased and drop the call. Call and voice out your love story and let Papa Jack advise you.


WILL: When me an ate rhiz was talking about our partners, she quoted some advices came from Papa Jack, then to her surprise when i asked "sino yun?" honestly, i don't know Papa Jack and I hate the Love Radio station because of the DJs that are so loud and all to do is laugh all their lungs out. 
Abbey suggested to listen to TLC, all i can say is "ok". Then that was the start to hooked-up on this Papa Jack for almost every night.
      In every caller, me and Abbey shared our views and of course most of them, we are different.
I wish someone that we know will call this TLC. Haha!

Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars



ABBEY:
I really like to hear love songs. I was hooked up by this song the first time I heard it. The melody is easy to remember and has an up-beat tempo. The lyrics tells about the true love of the man to his woman. Nothing must be changed because I love Wilma just the way she is.

WILL: After the Love Story LSS ni Abbey for almost 9 months, ito na ang sumunod. Before we go to bed, he plays the mp3 and sing-along with Bruno Mars, with matching actions pa.
      Love Abbey when he sings. :)

TINCHY STRYDER FEAT. TAIO CRUZ - SECOND CHANCE // OFFICIAL VIDEO


ABBEY:
I can't believe I had a second chance in love.... Love is sweeter the second time around. Wow, reminiscing what we had in high school and continuing it today :) Bagay na bagay ang kanta. I hope and pray that it will last until we face our Maker. Iba talaga ang dating ng love songs. Love you baby.






WILL: Abbey asked me for my iPhone and told me that he have a surprise for me. Ayun, this song is on my playlist. Nice to hear a music like this, very uplifting unlike other musics that was all about bitterness.

Monster Radio RX 93.1

Abbey:Iba talaga ang online streaming lalo na kapag sa ibang bansa ka. Less ang homesickness specially if you heard your name greeted on air. Nakakagising ng diwa sa night shift. :)
As usual, online streaming sometimes buffers, but still its good to hear pinoy radio channels over the net.
This channel also plays the latest songs even my favorite,"Amazing" (...when I see your face..there's not a thing that I would change...) Just the way you are pala.




Will: Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar. Yan, yan, yan, ang may sala bat ako pinagtitinginan s shuttle every morning, can't help myself to laugh. 
      Lalo na yang si Chico pag bumanat na di ko na alam paano itatago yung tawa ko..well meron nmang pang-tabla dun si Del, pag nilalabas n nya ang hinanaing at bitterness nya sa lovelife.. hehe.. 
      That's for my morning, paano ang gabi? DJ Tom is always ready to read on air my greetings for Abbey and his colleagues, may kasama pa yun na song request. 
      Kaso lng medyo madalas magbuffer sila dito s Singapore, as in madalas. I hope magawan nila ng paraan yun.
      Love u RX :)
