If you want to catch rock bands (metal, punk, hardcore, indie rock) performing live, be on the lookout for local productions who organize gigs and the venue are in and around the metro. Some of the venues I've attended these past 2 years include:

123 Block - they used to be near Pioneer in Mandaluyong but after the pandemic they relocated inside Mandala Park in the other side of Mandaluyong, along Shaw Blvd. The production that usually has gigs here is Counterflow and they usually have hardcore. indie rock and a few metal bands grace their lineups. 

Mow's - this is the bar beneath Kowloon House in Matalino St, QC near QC circle. I've attended hardcore shows organized by Still Ill and Sleeping Boy Collective but this bar also hosts shows from other rock genres on other days f the week. They also hold stand up comedy from the likes of Red Ollero et al. A lot of diverese foreign acts have played here ranging from hardcore, punk, metal, emo and indie pop/

Paper Lantern - this one is in the same building as Kowloon House and Mow's but is upstairs. It's a bigger venue as per my sources and host bigger shows. Hardcore bands are usually featured here.

Matchbox Yard - This is all the way in Faaaarview. This is where Darkside Bar used to be situated until it moved out and Matchbox Yard became its own thing. There's a Korean BBQ restaurant and a car wash in the ground floor. Move to the 2nd floor where the bar is situated and where the bands perform. This the favorite venue for hardcore shows, punk shows, metal shows, slam/brutal death metal gigs. Foreign bands such as Eyehategod, Ecchymosis and Black Fire have played here.  

Eastside Events Place - heading over to the east in Marikina is Eastside Events Place. This has been the venue of a lot of foreign hardcore, metal and grindcore bands' Manila leg of their Asian tours. This is a very big venue and very good venue for live music.

Milenya Bar - staying in Marikina, just a short walk from East Side is Milenya, This is a relatively new bar. I've only been at 2 shows here. 

Ruins Bar - still in Marikina is this small bar beside an SM Hypermart. Metal bands are usually the ones who put up their shows here. There's a curfew at this bar and the live bands do a hard stop before midnight lest the neighbors complain about the noise.

Noise Pollution Studio - yet another venue in Marikina just a stone's throw away from Ruins. The ground floor is a print shop/computer shop, the second floor is a mini-resturant which serves beer and the 3rd floor is where the music happens. It's actually a rehearsal studio which occasionally become a small venue for live performances. I've seen hardcore, grindcore and gore grind bands perform here. Next show is on April 27.

Ingay Likha - I haven't been here. I've only seen posts from local bands I follow who have played here. This is all the way in Cavite. A lot of underground activity has been happening here with a lot of noise coming from punk, hardcore, metal and grind bands.

Luna Marie - I haven't been here but this is in Malate. My source tells me there's a 'typical beerhouse' vibe for this place. A lot of punk, hardcore and metal shows have been hosted here.

Ano yung starfish?

Yan yung tawag sa thera na walang galaw at nakahilata lang. Ang guest ang gagalaw lahat. Parang pinagsamantalahan mo lang si thera. In short, hindi marunong si thera. 

Si Rachelle ba nasa Avalaya o Caricia pa? Nakuha ko sya dati sa Avalaya and nabalitaan ko lumipat daw ng Caricia. May nakakuha ba sa kanya recently?

And if ever di trip yung thera pwede bang mag decline sa es kapag mag offer sila? haha

Puede naman mag-decline sa ES. Bigyan mo na lang ng tip for the massage, depende kung nag-enjoy ka naman sa masahe kung magkano.

So beside Ella of Oasis, sino pa reco niyo boys? TIA.

If you're into slim and petite chicks, try Kate. Napaka-kinis at napaka-puti. Mataas din ang FV at mabait and malambing din. As for massage, special request ko is soft lang. ES, super sarap. Babalik balikan once matikman mo na.

Try mo Alyza of Caricia. Mabilis kausap. Tall, Maputi and Petite. 

Mga anong oras ang shift nito ni Alyza? May ATW ba sya? 

Sinong nakapunta na sa Sogo, Makati Avenue? May parking ba dun sa building mismo?

BPI credit card

Yes with imports. They help raise the level of play. Instead of playing with the normal 6'5" local centers, our players will get used to playing with hulking almost 7 foot behemoths. Mahahasa ang laro ng mga players natin with that kind of competiton.

Look at the current season of NCAA, their first without any imports. Parang inter-barangay lang ang laro. Puro takbuhan lang. 

Ateneo beats rival DLSU, 75-57 to remain unbeaten in season 84 of the UAAP Men's Basketball tournament. The Blue Eagles have been unbeaten in their last 30 games dating back to 2018.

wala pa ako na encounter na bayad mo pag check out siguro kung di ka sure kung ilang oras ka pa but usually ako kasi 3 hours or 6 hours at the most and bayad agad bago check in...

Pag garage rooms bro, sa checkout ang bayad.

Checked in to Sogo Marcos Highway yesterday. Tapos na yung promo nila na may 30% discount for showing your vaccination card. I paid 775 pesos for a 3 hour short time stay. I asked for a discount card upon check out.

Yes but not always. I remember for my History class, there was a leakage of what the topic we would do an essay about for our finals. What I did was already write my essay a day before the finals. True enough, it was the topic that we were to writ for our finals. I brought my pre-written essay with me and spent the next hour and a half pretending that I was thinking and writing. Before the time for the finals elapsed, I submitted my pre-written essay and went on my merry way. I got an A+ for that finals essay.

Saradp pa rin ba yung mga brothels sa Geylang? ATW dun ah. Tagal ko na rin kasi last nakapunta sa SG, 2017 pa. That time, sa Geylang ako naka-check in kaya convenient sa pick up or brothel. 

When the Pandemic started and the hard lock down was imposed, I got to drive around the metro as I was an APOR. There was no traffic except for the bottlenecks created at checkpoints. I got to drive freely from points A to B without traffic. It was eerie driving with no vehicles around. Driving at 9pm felt more like driving at 3am.

Hotels and malls were open but there were no people, the streets were deserted. It was like a scene taken from one of those post-apocalyptic, dystopian movies. 

The good thing about the pandemic-induced lock down is the lack of traffic and no crowds at malls. I kinda enjoyed that and was getting used to it already.

Nope. I'm a good listener though.

May Plasma TV pa ba ngayon? Puro LED at OLED na lang nakikita kong binibenta.
