A Battle That UNITES

               A night where talent is the key, unity is your armor and MUSIC is your only sword.


                         Recently held at Riverbanks Marikina City, Philippines. Organized by ShopaloozaPH. Kicking off the event by first group Thy Bidden, which I really support, because the lead guitarist is my best friend. Supposedly I'm not going , because of some unplanned schedule, pero dahil nakapag YES na ko, I decided to go & bring my friends,cousin, sister & the LUCKY CAP na hindi naging effective dahil may kaparehas..hahaha sayang nga lang walang banner!!


                         12 mins. was the given time for each participant, including their preparations and performance, while preparing.. I just can sense that theirs something wrong with Brian (yung guitar nya hindi marinig) ,at iba yung singer nila, but when the front man started singing... Shocks!! he got me there! His voice reminds me of an Icon! Sir Rico Blanco! Waaaahh!! Their first song was not familiar, but lyric wise. Then the second song explode when he sangs Bangon, bumangon din balahibo ko!! I may sound bias but that what I felt during the performance. Two thumbs up for the group!!

                          Then the 2nd group called, The Wet Balls, well the name sounds green..hahaha But not their music. They perform 2 original composition, at nag simula na silang magwala!! Literal.. :D 

2. Wet Balls 

Then followed by Banned from TV. First reaction... WOW!! ang dame!! 2nd reaction Anu daw?? To be Honest their not Prepared!! Yung tipong napa daan lang, and we are right. Ang Tapang ..hehehe



3. Banned from TV


Fourth Participant was the Pepe's Tribe. Unlike the 3rd performer they are composed of 3 members that create a great sound!! The lead guitarist & vocal caught my attention, not only of his red bandana but also his beautiful voice, together with the rest of the member they sang an OPM classic with meaningful message, and at the end of the competition they got the 3rd place.

Then KRYSENIC is next. First song was freaking disturbing, yet the lead singer's voice is as good as mine!!???? ( just kidding) :D Powerful voice though. I love their own rendition of "ANAK" by Fredie Aguilar,that put them on 2nd place.

7. KRYSENIC
 Then 12:16 .. is this a verse?? hehehe Lead singer is playful.. I like their performance, we can relate!! 
8. 12:16
 The last group is the Raki Road,i guess 12 mins is not enough for then, their 2nd song got cut off, because of preperation took it all away. Lead singer has a strong vocal power, need to practice more...
9. Raki Road
