Holiday Rants

Christmas came, and went; along with my 13^th month pay (wala man lang ako nabili, tsk tsk…)

***

I’m feasting for days now at the sonic delights of The Dawn’s 20^th anniversary album “Tulad ng Dati.” Re-recorded classics like Enveloped Ideas, Salamat, and Iisang Bangka were refreshing, made me think it would be easier to cover them now sans the k-boards (hehe!).

And kudos too to Valley of Chrome. Their latest album “Never the Lifeless” sounds different from their previous release “Love and Devotion.” My favourite track at the moment though is “Dasal.” The album sounds cleaner and crisper and thankfully, I can hear the basslines of Goodtime Jordy (ayos name brad!!!)

My dream however (still) as I discussed with Pepe Smear is to make a CD recording of all the popsmear songs. I don’t know if that can be fulfilled, all seemed busy at the moment, with Juday busy on VoC and Gelots on whatever he’s doing (boi rockstar ka daw sa Festi!). I still hope we can record those songs, a la greatest hits live; a sort of posterity record for posterity sake (so enteng will have something to listen and laugh about when he’s old, har-har!)

Ang gatas ng aso

Ay para sa tuta

Ang gatas ng baboy

Ay para sa biik

Eh ang gatas ng baka?

Para sa anak ko?

The worst government advertisement ever, Hands down. Very insulting and insensitive.

So ano gusto ng gobyerno ngayon? So kung walang gatas talaga at imposible mag breastfeed? Hahayaan na lang na magutom si baby? Tanga talaga nakaisip ng Ad na ‘yan.

Buti pa Baka may silbi. Ang gobyerno wala. Buwiset kayo talaga, tsk tsk tsk…
