Back To The 70's


Recommended Posts

Pards, sayang. You should have posted your trip on this thread. I was in San Francisco last week and the week before. Nagkita sana tayo.

 

Enjoy the rest of your stay in the US and have a safe flight home. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Para hindi OT, I'm currently listening to a couple of Hotdog songs: "Dying to Tell You" and "Panaginip".

 

Oo nga no? Sayang. We're in Northern California from May 20-23.

 

We spent Sunday night in Agxo's home in Fremont and went around Napa and Sonoma for some wine tasting the following day and then off to SF.

 

We stayed at the Inn at the Opera near the Opera House for another 2 days. We bumped to the opera diva who was charming (beatiful face) and big (mataba). We went to Starlight were the band composed of mixed egoys and asian played 70s music of Kool and the Gang, Ohio Players, Earth Wind and Fire, Commodores and even Stevie Wonder. They sound like the original. Some of the songs they played were:

 

Fire

Slippery When Wet

Rollercoaster

Celebration

Good Times

September

Superstition

etc.

 

Kakapagod ang sked namin. 3 weeks lang kasi. We've been to Hawaii, LA, SF, San Diego, LA, Palm Springs then tomorrow we will be in Vegas for 2 nights. We had a fun night in Hollywood last Sunday when we went to a mosh-pit (?) concert in Dragonfly were the band played all 80s music. The girls there were wild (barely covered) :boo: . Pinaakyat sa stage. Amoy katol/damo :goatee: ang paligid, parang 70s atmosphere in Baguio.

 

Kita-kita rin kami ng mga high school classmates ko. One of my classmates gave me an entire MP3 collection of all the love songs from 72-76 (high school era namin).

yeah, i watch saturday night fever at harrison plaza , then after that ride the bump cars naman.

Nice memories, too, at Harrison Plaza, before it got burned. I was working near that place, isang hamak na researcher, tambay sa HP pag-lunch or early p.m. (kain kami ng gf ko who's now my wife), enjoy even just watching the pick-up girls sa open resto (VIP restaurant 'ata) indside the mall.

 

At night, hang-out naman sa El Camarote Bar sa Holiday Inn (now Traders Royal Hotel) listening to the opening act of this pretty young lass named Kuh Ledesma, o kaya dancing sa Siete Pecados sa Westin Phil. Plaza.

 

Even Mabini St. is so full of drama, artists would love to be part of it - till of course Fred Lim raided the redhouses in the 90's and made the area a "cultural" zone.

By the way, just heard this a.m. Boom Gonzales play on 89.9 magic "Oh, Lorie" by the Alessi Bros. My all-time favorite. It so made my day!! :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Other songs I love from the 70's - "Kiss You All Over", "Baby Come Back" (Player), "Afternoon Delight" (Starlight Band)

Wow, ChocoVim...my favorite softdrink when I was Grade 6 sa Quiapo Parochial School. Imagine, baon ko P1.50 lang nakakabili na ako ng ChocoVim together with sandwich and kasama na rin yung pamasahe (from Dapitan). Meron pa ba nito ngayon? Miss its great taste.

Afternoon Delight was a hit during summer of mid 70s. Very memorable. The really big hits before that was Commodores of the "bump" thing........Young Girls are my Weakness, Machine Gun, Do the Bump. Continously played during our barkadas summer outing.

chocovim - "low-end" - softdrink style mas mura

chocolait - "hi-end" (choc and milk variants), paper/carton ang talip - tsarap!
