Still at office.
Waiting for some materials to get finished.
Decided to look for pictures from Fete dela Music.
Instead, I found this... "Let's face the bare facts. Very few guys watch pop-rock ensemble Mojofly just to see Ricci Gurango on bass or Junjun Regalado on drums.... Not to slight the rest of the band, but isn't it true that the guys really want to see Katrina "Kitchie" Nadal doing her thing?"

Ohhh yesss! :)
I most definitely agree.
Saw her at Fete last Saturday.
We were on our way out of Sidebar when she stepped on stage.
So, we stuck around for one song.
Man... she is a sight.

Later went back up to Sidebar to catch the last couple of songs of Barbie.

After her set, the crowd disappeared. Guess they were all Barbie fans.
Anyway, that allowed me and Brandie to go up to the bar and get seats really close to watch Cooky and Color It Red.

There was a time when every gig I'd watch of Color It Red, I'd get an idea for a Batch72 story. Back in March, I watched them at Sanctum and even though I had a lot of fun watching, slumped in one of those comfortable couches of Sanctum, I felt... felt sad that story came to me. All of sudden, I realized that Kupcake, Brown-out and the rest of the Batch barkada were strangers to me. I've forgtten what they sound like when they talk, forgetten what it was like to be around them.

Anyway, Saturday night was fun. Well, maybe I didn't get any story, but I think some crazy ideas came to mind. It's just uncanny how much Cooky really looks like Kupcake. Goes to show Arnold really captured her image and likeness. Cooky has this angle, especially when her face partly covers her face that she really seems like Kupcake come to life. (Sorry, am I drooling?)

I really liked their new song called "You", a very trippy love song by Bopip, written for Barbie (of course!).
That song will part of their upcoming fourth album.

They also sang "I Need You Here". Nice to hear it again. Would also be nice to hear Cooky sing it and she'll just be accompanied by Sam on a grand piano. Hmmm...

Couple of weeks ago, Ms. Diyco featured another campaign made by the creatives here at Harrison Communications. Here's her review about the Neozep "Neozerye" TV campaign: Romancing the mighty colds cure ADS AND ENDS, Nanette A Franco-Diyco BUSINESS WORLD Vol. XX, No. 139, Friday-Saturday, February 9-10, 2007 http://www.bworldonline.com/Weekender020907/main.php?id=marketing_diyco The four television commercials that serialize the life of pretty housemaid Luwalhati, culminating in a storybook wedding to her once-upon-a-time señorito from the imposing mansion belong to an ad campaign awards class all its own. There have been other spoofs of soap operas selling other brand categories in the past. But for several reasons put together, the Neozep series of commercials that began with honest-to-goodness ad teasers that looked and sounded like teasers for true-blue soap operas proved ultra entertaining and more importantly, "reinforced Neozep’s leadership and further s...

The Mini Manifesto

LET'S BURN THE MAPS. Let's get lost. Let's turn right when we should turn left. Let's read fewer car ads and more travel ads. Let's not be back in ten minutes. Let's hold out until the next rest stop. Let's eat when hungry. Let's drink when thirsty. Let's break routines, but not make a routine of it. LET'S MOTOR.™ This is the copy for the MINI “Let’s Motor” campaign. The creatives who created this campaign said they weren’t just writing copy on how great it would be to own a Mini, they were writing a manifesto, a way of life for people who drive a Mini. I just love how the copy has rhythm, how it just flows and rolls off the tongue, how it just wants you to go out and drive and just keep driving. Makes me also wish I could write copy like that. More wonderful copy ads can be found at: http://www.libraryofmotoring.info/miniprintads.html

the sons and daughters of Kanlaon

Last Friday, we attended the 40th Anniversary of KBS, the Kanlaon Broadcasting System, where my mom and dad once worked. I was still a baby when my dad worked there. I barely remember the people there. One of the first people to greet me was Lando, my dad's old driver. Him, I remember. As the story goes, when I was a baby, I could not pronounce his name and just started calling him "Agoong". Hence, he got that nickname and that's what everyone called him. I remember how we used to play chess while waiting for dad to finish work and how I always forced him to make me win. (Makes me wish I forced him to teach me how to play chess better and learn how to not win things so easily.) As expected, as my mom re-introduced me to her old office mates, they all looked surprised and delighted to see me. They would then immediately extend their hand, palm down, and show me how small I was when I first met them. Some would pretend to carry me and tell them they were the ones who ca...
