matayog pa rin ang APO


last night was a blast! and i say that i was a virgin in watching APO concerts as Jim Paredes would say. ang galing pa rin nila at walang kupas pa rin ang mga boses! they sang all APO favorites at hindi binigo ang fans after more than 2 hours of waiting while watching front acts. nga pala, they are not APO Hiking Society anymore, it's APO of the Philippines. truly we are proud!

Teatro Marikina talents gave us a variety of numbers. talented talaga. the congressman honored the government of Marikina dedicating Impossible Dream. Periodico was the front act. i can say, "May future ka" to the band. and the main event begins with a very lively opening song. dko lang alam kung anong title but it has repeating "heto na" on the lyrics but it's not Doobidoo. hehehehe... everyone sang along with timeless hits like Ewan, Blue Jeans, Panalangin on the first set. a very entertaining play on the song Yesterday by The Beatles liven up the audience kasi parang pirated ang interpretation nila. tumatalon na plaka kumbaga, naisingitan pa ng Do-Re-Mi.

the second set, ganun pa rin. lahat nakikikanta sa mga awiting Mahirap Magmahal ng Syota ng Iba, Doobidoo. Doobidoo rendition was fun. isipin mong may versions pala sina Frank Sinatra, Beyonce at Ken Lee. haha... single people and hopeless romantics waved their flags on When I Met You.

it's a merry christmas greeting to everyone when they sang Tuloy na Tuloy Pa Rin ang Pasko and Pasko Na, Sinta Ko. and then it was finished by another exciting Salawikain rendition.

a new song was introduced to us and it is good. hoping to make it to the charts soon as they release it. dko na naman alam ang title.

other titles were Kabilugan ng Buwan; Di Na Natuto, which is in 3 versions each of Jim, Buboy and Danny. old and young sang with Batang Bata Ka Pa. the greatest folk songs were rendered in contemporary music and barkadas sway on Awit ng Barkada.

the show ended with a granduous fireworks display.
