Haven't posted anything for about three months due to school project and finals plus I wanted to make a single entry for the gigs/lives I've attended.
Unit Asia:
First off is Unit Asia live in SM SkyDome back in February 13, 2012. In celebration of this year's Nihongo Fiesta, Japan Foundation Manila invited the jazz group composed of five outstanding musicians from Japan, Thailand and Malaysia: Isao “Sankichi” Miyoshi (guitar), Hiroyuki Noritake (drums), Shigeki Ippon (bass), Koh Mr. Saxman (saxophone) and Tay Cher Siang (piano). It was a mind blowing concert! These guys are of a different level of musicality, totally out of this world. It's also amazing that they are from different countries, Malaysia, Thailand and Japan. Powerful jazz fusion, very entertaining and inspiring group of musicians from different cultures.
toe The Five,Six Seven Tour:
Post Rock band toe, performed last March 20, 2012 over at the NBC Tent, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. They weren't really supposed to play in the Philippines but there was an enormous support from Facebook as users from the Philippines flooded toe's Facebook account to have Philippines included in this tour. Thanks to Terno Records/Productions for doing a great job of having toe play here. The live itself was surreal and definitely as the saying goes "一期一会" - a once in a lifetime experience. I can't still recover from that intense live. Domo Ariga-toe
