gusto kong matulog...

Woke up late today. It seems these days i just feel like slacking (which i shouldn't) and i really feel tired in the morning. I still feel sleepy and yes, i admit, it's not just because of the lack of coffee. :-P Maybe i just need a vacation. I feel like i'm flipping out anytime soon.

Last Night

Met up with Paolo at Glorietta for Clang's gig at Saguijo, but since Clang texted that his gig would be a little bit later,we decided to check out Jason Moss' exhibit at the Crucible (Megamall), hoping to still get some freebie munchies while checking out the diva's latest works. Alas, there wasn't any food since the reception was somewhere else, but at least we got to check out the show. Was kinda hoping to let Pao finally meet the divine Miz Moss. hehehe. Loved his "Soiree" and untitled works, especially because it was a delightful mix of lovely colours.

Saw Gari B. and Jeff L. with some friends also checking the artwalk! Gari looks pretty good these days (love the side burns! hehehe) We also got to check out Marcel's work at the Art Center, where they were featuring The Big Show, a fifth anniversary exhibit featuring paintings and sculptures. Paolo gave me some pretty kewl insight on Marcel's work, as well as some nifty commentary on hyperrealism (LOTR,anyone? hehhe)

We decided to eat at Mexicali for dinner, which was weird, since the mall was closing during that time and we kinda felt bad that we were holding everybody up from leaving because of our late late timing. Still, the food was good and we got to bitch about work.hahaha.

We got lost on our way to Saguijo Cafe. The directions in the text read :"Pasong Tamo, right" but after some time we saw that there was no sign. I distinctly remember a sign that says that but instead it read "Chino Roces". Being not at all familiar with the new names, we missed out turn and had to go around and through so many side streets just to get back right on track. Lucky for us, NU107 was featuring Juan de La Cruz' Wally and Pepe doing an acoustic jam session so that made us feel a bit better about being lost in big, bad Makati. hehehe.

Pinoy Time as always. We finally got there and found the first band playing. Yup, they started late, and they had a LONG list to play. I think they exceeded more than an hour in playing. It was kewl, they played pretty good, and their songs were pretty standard stuff. Makopa, the second band, blew me away with their strong vocals and funky lounge. Asteeg! Throughout the waiting, we hung out with Clang and his bandmates. Nakakamiss! Of course, as expected, Clang and Pao did their techie talk. hahah. The only time i actually joined in on that was when they started talking and asking about my iPod, which i didn't bring (ha!). Some of the regulars of the place were also from FA, so it was pretty good to see familiar faces.

Whateverittakes, Clang's band was pretty kewl, with original hits and a cover from Jamiroquai keeping our heads bopping. Sayang, one of their guitarist's guitar strings broke and he had to sit a couple of songs out though. Also, the vocals was kinda drowned out by the restof the instruments. Still, it was a pretty good set, and i had fun! :-D Mehn, salamat! Ayuz! And, something to remember the night by: " Solid, poor!"
