ULTIMATE REGGAE PARTY
Xaymaca's "ultimate reggae party" will showcase artists/bands like Brownman Revival, Noel Cabangon (reggae??, umh, ern, not that I'd mind him being there.. but just seems out of place), Session Road, etc.. Woohoo. The catch? It's on the 24th. Monday. I never go out on weekdays anymore. Maybe just this once? We'll see. :)

Speaking of bands, guess who has a new band? The former E'heads main man, of course, Ely Buendia. Also, in the Mongols is a former Teeth member (of Laklak fame), giving the band's sound something familiar, yet ultimately unique. Their first single, Bulakbol, has been getting a lot of airplay, and it reminds me of the pre/ultraelectromagneticpop era when you can just hang out in places like Mayric's and Club Dredd and not care about anything much except school (or board exams, at that time) and some silly young love problems. Back when we were broke yet happy. No worries about taxes, rent, amortization, annulments/divorces, marriages and career moves. I think this is what the Mongols has to offer, some of that nostalgia, a reminder of those youthful, carefree times :)
