"Wish List Oh my GASSSS!"

Wish list for the coming months in no particular order.

A desktop PC on my room with a good soundcard that will interface my GFX-5 so I can now make digital recordings.

A new cell phone. A Motorola L6 in exchange for my N3100.


It’s a long shot but I love to have this Epiphone Les Paul standard, preferably black. Ganda talaga nito, (Whew benta ko kay V ko para makabili ako nito?)

Gig bag or Hard case for my “Epi” (epiphone flying-V)


Wow! How I wish I had the cash in order to have these toys. Well that’s why they call it wish list. Last Sunday, I was arranging my CD collection and came across on these 2 CD’s that has pictures of our 2 summer trips in Puerto Galera. Then it came to my mind that I like to go back there this coming Semestral Vacation. I just miss the fun there, and the fact that its more cheaper going there during off peak seasons such as October or December. Sino kaya manlilibre sa akin at mag-aaya papunta dun? “sagot ko na pamasahe ko pare!”

"Nostalgia!?"



I just got this Bioman Movie in DVD format. It's like I'm like a child again. Those times when I would run back home just to catch this show. Can you imagine the kids are all gone from the streets because everyone is watching this Japanese, english dubed sentai. Hoy FYI, this is the ORIGINAL! Bago mag power rangers, mask man, at kung ano ano pa, this ones the first sentai on that theme. Memories nga naman. Balikan ko nga ulit yung iba pang episodes... para bilhin "DR. MAN 3x" ( in robotic like chant) With the mecha clones. hehehe!
Meron pa ako isang gustong panoorin na series yung ROSWELL, but then malapit na din akong matapos sa Dark Angel, 12 episodes nalang. Wow, malamang sa sweldo bili ako ng mga ito. Nakita ko rin nga pala yung 1st season ng transformers. Wow, hanep back to the 80's na talaga ito. where kids pretend to walk in group as in they were the BAGETS!

"Crappy Recording"

I got this from tonyo, we recorded our rehearsal using a handheld mono recorder used by reporters. I just digitalized it. If you want to Listen to Bangus you can download our song Two faces here (Low tech style), or just listen to it here:


Tagal ko na din walang post ah. So what am I up to lately?
I've been practicing with Ynez, my bass guitar. Picking tecniques, speed picking, endurance and attack, then frequently tweek my bass amp and my effect. I made a short composition but I don't know if they will like it and will fit to our song genre. Anyway, I'll try to record it since its all bass lines. I've cleaned and polished my bass amp yesterday and tighten up the screws to prevent the buzz.

Now I'm gassing for a Gig bag for my Fling V, but until last sunday, I'm not yet satisfied with the TKL-flying V gig bag. Medyo mura kaya lang I'm looking for something na wala dun sa bag e. Anyway, I have to think of it. But it's really cheap at just P1,200 decent and fitted gig bag for a standard Flying V.

I've been watching Dark Angel the series starring Jessica Alba. Season one has 28 episodes and I'm through watching episode 16. I really love this series but unfortunately it only has two seasons. Go MAX!

What else? Yeah need to practice more on my timing and learn more arpeggios on my bass. I love aprpeggios, I've been doing it for a very long time but its just last month that I have learned that what I'm doing are arpeggio scales. Wow parang ang gali-galing ko na. more to come.

"Flame of Recca, AGAIN!"



It became famou back in the day when GMA-7 made a tagalog dubbing for this anime. I've managed to watch all of its episode. Then Again AXN broadcast it on Cable but this time in its original language with English captions or subtitles. Those were the days that I would hurry home just to watch the show or wake up early in the morning to catch the re-runs. Those were the days na wala pang DVD sa Quiapo. hehehe! Last week I bought a 6-DVD of this anime FLAME of RECCA... Started to watch it and relive the moments when he faced his older brother Kurei and managed to let all the 8 flame dragons out. Great! natapos ko na ulit panoorin... Now DARK ANGEL naman. Jessica Alba, Here I come!

"What The"


Monday afternoon was fine, then came 5:00pm and it started to get dark. Tapos ayan na. Thunder and lightning came. At around 6:05 I was at the gate of our office ready to go home and get my guitar and gears for our 8-10pm rehearsal at GiG in Cubao. Unfortunately the rain was so heavy. Pero kahit na malakas ulan at wala akong paying lumusob ako para makarating on time. Pagdating ko sa Lawton nakasilong ako sa ilalim ng tulay at naghintay ng FX. Nakasakay ako, byaheng Fairview. Pero bago makaakyat ng tulay ng Quiapo at bigla kaming nabangga. Wow hassle talaga. So I decided to go down and find a new ride. Pag baba ko nakita ko, 3 pala ng nagkabanggaan. 2 jeep at yung fx na sinasakyan ko. Silong ako sa ilalim ng LRT. Ayun nakasakay ako ng byaheng Dapitan. Oo kahit alam kong baha sa Dapitan sumakay pa din ako dahil balak kong bumaba nalang sa quiapo at dun sumakay ng Balik2x dahil alam kong baha na din sa EspaƱa. So there bumaba ako sa may Arlegui sa Quiapo at naghanap ng masasakyan. Nakakita ako ng Lealtad at agad akong sumabit. Nalaman ko nalang na hanggang sa Bustillos lang pala ang byahe sa may simabahan. Dun na ako inabutan ng syam syam. Wala ng ulan pero baha pa din sa ilang bahagi at traffic talaga. Dun na ako inabutan ng gutom kaya ng decide na akong kmain sa chowking. Pagkakain ko gad akong lumabas at may nakitang byaheng Balik2x na jeep. Sumabit ako dahil isa lang naman ang nakasabit so nagging 2 na kame. Mahusay naman ang biyahe kahit dahan dahan. Bumagal lang ito banding Oro. At dun na. May lasing na mama at nag tatrafic sya. Nagalit sa ilang mga driver dahil singitan daw ng singitan. Aakalain ko bang pag iinitan din yung driver namin gawa ng nasa tama naman kaming linya! Langya sinuntok yung driver ng jeep na sinasakyan ko at eto naman driver ay kumuha ng tubo at mag aaway pa ata. Buti nalang napigilan ng mga tao. Ako bumaba ako at nagsimula ng maglagad. Unfortunately hanggang M. dela fuente sa G. Tuazon lang ang kaya kong lakadin dahil sa baha na banda dun. Nakita ko yung pinsan ko at nagtawanan kame. Ayun may biglang bumiyaheng jeep at kaagad kaming sumakay. NAsa bahay ako mga 9:00pm. Nagbihis at kihuha mga gamit para kitain si Tonyo para sa rehearsal sa GiG. Ayun, when we came, may nag ensayo na. But the technician managed to snag a slot for us 11-12am daw. We agreed and waited. We still got to rehears at least 3 of our songs. Yung 2 kase Sabbath cover e. Yun. Tindi ba?

"Ang Cellphone nga naman"

Maraming beses na din ako naka pag blog tungkol sa cellphone ko. Yng nasa taas yan ang cellphone ko ngayon. Matagal na yan at medyo luma na. Isang taon mahigit na sa akin yan. Wala... Naisip ko lang ang mga nagagawa ng cellphone sa buhay ng mga Pilipino. Palagi nating dala ito at nasa bulsa o bag natin at handang ilabas sa oras na tumunog ito o mag vibrate dahil may nag message o may tumatawag. Mura lang kase ang bayad sa serbisyong nakukuha natin sa mga Malalaking kumpanya ng cellphone. E pano naman sila hinde kikita ng milyon2x, e sa letrang "K" nalang, oo "K" kumikita na sila ng 3M. Yung mga txt msg sayo na nagtatanong at imbes na sagutin mo ng "Oo-kasunod ang tanong nya" ay sasagutin mo nalang ng "k". kung 1 milyon kayong nag txt ng "k" sa piso isang txt, edi 1M na un.

Problema sa cellphone (Kaya mas okay pa ang Nokia 5110 kumpara sa mga higher models)
Kung hinde pakielamera yung GF, ka MU, FUBU, at kung ano ano pang relasyon, okay lang ito. Subalit pag medyo makulit na, ayan na ang problema. eto ang ilan:

-Colored phone na may wallpaper "Honey bakit di mukha ko o mukha natin nakalagay sa wallpaper ng fone mo?" Buti pang mag Nokia 5110 ka.
-High Memory Capacity "Hon, san na yung mga txt msg ko sayo" Puro Fwd msg naman. Buti pa nung naka N5110 ka 15 msg lang puno na.
-Recent calls and sent items "Sweet, sino tong number na tumawag sa iyo, at sino tong ti next mong ito aber?" Balik ka nanaman sa 5110. na walang ganung feature.
-High end camera "Darling lets take our picture" na kahit nag drive ka o nasa loob kayo ng bus o FX. Pinagtitinginan kayo ng tao o pinagsisimulan ng traffic.
-MP3 player & radio "honey peram naman phone mo at mag sounds lang ako". Ayun ubos kaagad ang battery ng cell mo.
-Blue tooth devices "Love bluetooth ko sayo mga pictures ko kagabi ha". na kahit everyday na kayo nagkikita gusto nya punuin ng pics yung phone mo dahil puno na yung sa kanya.


Nadami pa ito.. to be continued...
