Analog Signals






Went to this Dope MNL thing somewhere in Chino Roces and totally had a blast. Mostly because I was just hanging out with my friends.


 Here is a close up of the shirt that I wore that night. It's the Madonna/Virgin shirt from Proudrace!
Hehe, got it when Status had a garage sale or sumthin. We went over to Patmai's place to drop of her school stuff and went to Nova Gallery. We had a tough time looking for it but eventually found it. Luckily, my friend Patmai was familiar with the place.

When we got there, Bee Eyes was already playing! Yay, I got to see them again because I just think they're awesome. The sad part is that I never get to start their set, haha.


When we got there, a lot of people were outside but we decided to roam around the gallery first. Below are some of the art featured in the gallery. The gallery, btw was pretty cool and nice. Click on the images na lang to enlarge, hehe.





This one was pretty cool, it's really just a black and white art on canvas but a projector made it change its colors! Cool idea, man. 

Bee Eyes finished their set and my friends wanted to drink the Tanduay Ice they brought (Yes, BROUGHT, coz they're badass like that) and so we decided to roam the compound. Here are the things that we did around the compound...

I saw a cool dark alley and thought that it would be cool to have a photo right there and so we did!



I think the coolest thing we saw there last night was this warehouse for interior things and the warehouse was decorated with fake grass/vines and the photos turned out great!


Props to my friend, Trixie for the cool photos. This is probably one of my favorites nao + a lot of people are liking my profile pic in Facebook, hehehe (that's me on the left and that's Patmai on the right)

Patmai was kind of hyper/drunk that night na, so I think that's why she did this pose =)) She's hilarious to bits. PLUS, she was legit MY first friend in college, guys. Plus points to her! 


 And then that's my trying to kill her =)) We were laughing. We realized we hadn't eaten dinner that night so we decided to eat dinner in Ministop. We spent most of our time there and we had loads of laugh too. Down here, Patmai is probably talking to the doughnut and saying "Shhh" to it as she ate the poor doughnut. It was hysterical I tell ya! HYSTERICAL!


 Here's us pretending not to know that we're not being photographed near the white wall. 


We then ran out of drink and had a lot of laugh and decided to go home. Walking towards my car, the crowd parted and....


A WILD JOEY APPEARED! :D


Everyone knows Joey, guys. EVERYONE. 

That ends an epic cool night.
I took some photos with my Yashica but it's black and white so Imma have to wait for it to get developed. Photos courtesy of Trixie :D

Popfest 2012


 I went to Dope MNL X Popfest last night and it was a cool chill vibe. I GOT TO SEE BEE EYES! :D
 

Julius V.

They were awesome, I was on my way to the venue of the concert and I could hear them playing and I got all excited in my tummyyy :))

Idris V.
Ooooooh, he reminds me of The Horrors.


Diego A.


 Ralph M.

(Did I get their names right tho? I'm not quite sure) =))






Of course  he had to wear that Joy Division shirt :O *amazed*


Julius V. He was funny trying to kill time for the next band to replace 'em :))
He said they were giving away free Bee Eyes CD but I was too shy to go near them (na-starstruck ako) =)) UGHHH, regreeet.


Oh, here are the peeps I went with to the fest. They're some cool friends I've got. Wait, I just met Kim last night btw (girl on the left side) and she's cool to hang with =)) Kumiko, the lady on the right, is just as cool too. SHE GAVE ME AN OST OF AVENUE Q which I find hilarious and now I want to go and see them live.

And below is Kim and Trixie using my camera :))




 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. That's me and my DERP FACE. 


Here's a video that Kumiko took for Sunday Girl which is my FAVE from the band! Wooooo! Check it guys, super worth it. I'm super glad Kumiko had fun because it's been awhile since we haven't seen each other and I spontaneously invited her to the event. I was worried she might not like the music on the Popfest line but the first band that she saw (Bee Eyes) she loved. WOOO!

Then Ciudad:


His bass is COOL

 I like his guitar.


 Then, of course, a crowd favorite was Ang Bandang Shirley:




He reminds me of Chaz as in Toro Y Moi Chaz :)))


Oh, hey, I like corners and shadows :))

My friends Trixie and Kim were MIA but it turned out that they were just looking for something to eat. I saw them in Clawdaddy's so we ate there and got to know more. REVELATIONS HAPPENED (wink at Trixie) =))


Ooooohh, pretty lights~

 

Bathroom break! I had to pee. Everyone did. :))

 I like odd things and by odd, I mean the things that people think are normal. I've got the Eggleston-bug!

  
I love his guitaaarrr! I didn't get to catch their band name since we arrived at their last song after the dinner that we had at Clawdaddy's.

 
But the drummer was cool and he went WILD.


I was taking some photos and when I lowered the camera from my face someone jumped (or tapped) at me and nagulat ako :)) It was a schoolmate of mine from high school and it was just Maronne =)) As in that's her in the photo. Sorry, I liked the "framing and composition" and shit so I took a photo of it.(HELLO MARONNE, If you see this Hi and if you want me to remove the photo ok lang :)) )

Then PEDICAB played! 
Bitin siya actually, I wish they played more songs haha but oh well...








After Pedicab, the dj set of Gian Romano was the only one I was able to listen to coz I had to go home na. I would just like to say that his playlist was amazing. One song after another and he played Wolf Gang! ACE. 

And sooooo, that ends my Saturday night fun with my friends, I will leave you now with Georgina Wilson's face. 

My friend Trixie took this photo. Na-starstruck siya eh :))





Ooops, NAT. 
Here's my Derp/Singing face to Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" during Gian Romano's set =))


Kay. BYE. :))

 PS. I would also just like to add that it's fun to talk/shout out loud in High Street when no one is around and the place is quiet. You guys should try it some time!
