Happenings: Backstreet Boys Live in Manila 2015

If there’s anyone who I’ve been fangirling to the longest, it’s to these guys.

I fell in love with the Backstreet Boys when I first watched the Quit Playing Games video. I know so typical right?? And so sensual! I may have been 6 or 7 and sorry sobrang sexy ni hawi boy Nick! Never mind the other boys’ abs!!!!! Buhok palang ni Nick busog na me!

DIYOS KO LORD PATAWARIN

Ginising nya ang aking katawang lupa which is kinda disturbing if you think about it hehe. If you’re reading this parents, thank you for allowing me to watch MTV!!! Hehehe.

I’ve been a BSB fan for 18 years and their music is still a fixture in my everyday life. Hindi ako OA because nasa playlist ko forever ang BSB songs. If you see me *dancing* in my seat at work it’s probably cos I’m listening to Everybody or Larger than Life. Kung nageemote ako, it’s probably cos I’m listening to Shape of My Heart or Drowning.

Do you guys prepare before a concert? As in you listen to the artists’ playlist para you can sing along during the concert? I didn’t do that. I don’t have to. I’ve been ready for more than a decade.

Happenings: Ed Sheeran Live in Manila 2015

How do I even begin to describe Ed Sheeran’s show in Manila?

I wasn’t planning to blog about this because I don’t really have that much funny kwento other than ate iPad wearing cat ears (SURE KA BA SA PINUNTAHAN MONG CONCERT ATE) who basically ruined a few people’s experience (including us – but not totally) with her tablet and pink cover (seriously). But overall, if I may borrow from Ed’s (ED???) words from his Roundhouse gig in 2014, the whole show was a “big, climactic, orgasm of music.”

Ed nailed it. And damn f we didn’t leave the arena with a satisfied smile on our faces.

Happenings: The Red Tour: Taylor Swift Live in Manila 2014

When I found out that Taylor Swift is coming to MNL for the Red tour I was like “My wallet is not ready BUT I AM!!” I’m a fan of Taylor’s but mas naging love ko sya cos of the RED album aka The Jake Gyllenhaal (I’m so proud of myself tama agad spelling ko) mix. I remember walking around Baltimore in the fall of 2012 whilst listening to State of Grace. #emote2k12!

Akala ko wala na akong pag-asa makanood because naubos agad ang tickets in two freaking hours. I was stressed and devastated! I don’t know how many times I refreshed smtickets.com last March. But the stars aligned for Kelly and I cos we were able to buy tickets!!! YAAAAAAAS! I thought I will be broken like a promise on June 6th but I wasn’t. THX GOD.

Happenings: Tegan and Sara Live in Manila 2013!

Last night, I went from LB to Taguig to catch Tegan and Sara‘s first ever gig in Manila. They reiterated it enough that after 14 years (fans, correct me if I heard wrong) they finally got the chance to perform for their Filipino fans! ANO BA ANG SAYA KO RIN!

I fell in love with their music just this year when a friend told me that they and Up Dharma Down (who opened for T&S last night yey) are kinda in the same genre of music. So I listened to their songs and the rest is history.
