kick out the jams

Our band finally had it's first gig last Sept. 10, 2005 at Festival Mall in Alabang. It was the kickoff show of an eight-legged bar tour entitled "Kami Naman!". An event produced by Mr. Bob Gamboa(aka Papa Bear) of Sandbox band.

We were the first of the 7 bands that played for the gig. Since the hosts for the show were late, we were asked to play a few songs to keep the crowd interested. We opened the show at around 4pm with the song "Melt with you". We played 2 more songs "Badfish" and "Here in your bedroom" before the hosts arrived. After a brief introduction for the event, our band proceeded with our song lineup. We played "Pictures", "TimeBomb", "More today than yesterday" before playing our final song "Pass the duchie". The Event was a success! The other bands we played with are really good. A mix of different genres played by different bands really kept the show alive.

My girlfriend Kim, my office bud jen, together with my sister Kat and her friend Lex were my guests for the show. They took pictures and videos for us. Much love and a big thanks from our band goes to them.

The next gig for the tour will be Oct 8, 2005. We're all looking forward to it.
