batibut Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 unforgettable din yung pearl jam concert in '95 kasi nasa pinakaharap kami tsaka nakapag-body surf ako tsaka ka-slaman ko mga foreigners... sarap ding humawak at humipo sa mga caucasians na nag-crowd surf din...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> I remember this too! They were awesome! Galing pa kasi while we were queuing up to enter the folk arts theatre the band was rehearsing so you could hear Eddie Vedder singing...parang teaser! tapos ok pa yung front act...mud honey ba yon? Sobrang daming tao magkakapalitan kayo ng muka sa sobrang sikip! hahaha pero astig! had a blast! Quote Link to comment

batibut Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 oh that's awesome - what I'd give to see a legend like him...saka si Lionel Hampton - I guess you saw him too...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> he didn't play. they just paid a tribute to him. he was like 60 or something. i didn't even realize who he was kasi shempre alam ko lang itsura niya sa poster...not a big jazz fan but i was so moved. it was like a 30 minute jam session! astig! the whole festival was for 3 days and there were a lot of musicians! they would be walking around the kibbie dome lang and my friends would be pointing them out like it was nothing. it was a great experience!

batibut Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Lionel Hampton died in 2002. I think his last performance was at the Lionel Hampton Jazz festival pa! The UofIdaho school of music is named after him e. But yeah, I wish we could get to see the greats in music. My dream would be to see Janis Joplin, the Doors and the Beatles, perform live!

Pero di bale na hehehe...I wonder who among here have gone to these jazz fests - like the Newport Jazz Festival, the Montreux Summit - you know like the Idaho jazzfest that ms.batibut attended...wala na yatang ganun ngayon...all I can hear from them are the live records from these jazzfests...

gorgonite Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Speaking of festivals, there was a Philippine Jazz Festival several years ago at Coconut Palace, I don't know if any of you went there. It wasn't a big event in terms of attendance, there were only a few hundred people (the organizers weren't ambitious, they knew the market was small), but all the major local jazz talents performed and they were amazing. Not the Richard Merck/John Lesaca brand of jazz, but the real stuff. We have real jazz talent here in the country, but unfortunately some of them turn to pop just to earn a few bucks (e.g. Eddie K, Elmir Saison of Toy Symphony). Quote Link to comment

batibut Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 (edited) Saw the Jars concert! Biased ako...ang galing! Although, they didn't play some of the songs I really wanted to hear! Galing nung light show. We thought, they brought it with them. But according to the organizers pinoy set up daw! Grabe! According to my friends, who happen to be musicians, however, the sound wasn't as crisp as they expected! My other friend naman said, parang prayer rally daw! :boo: :boo: E may mga madre ba naman nanood! San ka pa?!?! Talked to Dan Haseltine, Charlie Lowell and Steve Mason on the phone before they left last night! :cool: I almost had a heart attack! :boo: Yon lang! Just wanted to share...

I stumbled upon this web site yesterday that showed pictures taken from the 1st Candid Jazz Festival at Shangrila Plaza last Oct 17, 2004. Tots Tolentino, Elmir Saison, Johnny Alegre, Colby dela Calzada were all there! Ang bangis! P**a bat di ko nabalitaan to? Edited March 4, 2005 by gorgonite Quote Link to comment
