Frank, Inyo and Franco

Uploaded with ImageShack.us


I was really thrilled the first time I heard about this band Franco, their album was released last May 2010. I was captivated by their reggae rock music, and surely lot of us will dig in the lyrics.

Franco is composed of individuals affiliated with established acts - Franco Reyes (Inyo), Gabby Alipe (Urbandub), Paolo Toleran (Queso), Buwi Meneses (Parokya ni Edgar), and JanJan Mendoza (Urbandub), that's why they call them super band. That's also why I'm kind of jumped by excitement, it was days of getting high to their music and I loved it. Eventually while searching for some details about their album, I came across a debated forum about Franco Reyes' former band InYo and the newly launch super band Franco where they argue on who plays best. Then I was really disappointed to found out that most of the songs released by Franco was already out internationally in InYo's album and was also played by Frank (Franco Reyes' original Cebu based band).

Now here's the catch, I know that Franco Reyes wrote this songs and it is his music, and has the right to play these songs even if Frank and InYo disbanded because of the royalty but, releasing this songs again as their debut album as Franco come on!, well I never heard a disbanded group re-released their songs again under another band name, usually they release an album with new singles and sings their previous bands hit songs. I understand now why the other side in the forum proclaim Franco as a Super Cover Band. Well don't get me wrong, I really like that Franco was formed, because it's a great band but a band was suppose to make new songs not to play songs that was released before. I think the original band Frank deserves the credit for these songs, they are the ones behind that music when it was being crafted anyway.

I have nothing against Franco, this is just my opinion you know. I like Franco band because of it's super band title and I'm looking forward for their next album and I hope it will be surprisingly good,. I salute Frank for bringing the music to life, Inyo for making it international and Franco for popularizing it to our country. They are all great bands, and to you Sir Franco for a good strategy to keep your own music alive. So Kudos! More Power.

Letter to Ela (Blowfly)

I

Hey Ela we use to hang around.
The moment I met you I was so glad
Those days of our meaningful bond
Ever since then you stayed in my mind

II
A friend to be that's where I stand
But each and every day the more I fall in love
So tell me have you ever had the heart?
To tell me to stop without hurting me so bad

****
My Dear Ela tell me how's your heart
It's sad to hear that you're breaking apart
How I wish I was there to stand by your side
To comfort you and be the one to hold your hand

III
Perhaps before wasn't a good time
And I came late way too far
You have everything you needed somehow
But you've given me friendship anyhow

IV
Have yourself enough time to heal
Because waiting has always been my game
It's may way of showing I really care
Your hearts condition matters much anyway

Letter to Ela

I am lost, take me home.

Yesterday I met my future boss, we went to the construction site where I'll be working as soon as I finished processing my work pass. While waiting for the approval which we applied online, he gave me a quick briefing about how soon his company will be taking over the project . I waited a couple of hour hours for his meeting to be adjourned, he then drive me to MOM Work Pass Division. The Que didn't take long but we had a slight delay when the officer noticed 2 missing pages that's necessary for the registration, so my boss had to run and produced another printout. After that, when everything seem to be fine he said his goodbyes and parted for another meeting. The registration and finger printing was quick so I'm out in the building in no time. That's the start of a new story.

My work is done so I head home. I've been given directions earlier so I figure it would be fine. Next thing I notice I'm walking for minutes without any Idea where to go or what to look for, so I ask an old Chinese guy in a motorcycle to point out which way to the nearest MRT station and that's when he misguided me. I figured that he'd given me direction to walk straight on a street parallel to where the MRT is 3 blocks away. I was lucky to see a small sign pointing the right way after walking a couple of blocks, so I hurried on that path. That's it I'm saved!

Good thing is, a long walk is a good exercise and you can enjoy the view. The least is no one would know you are lost!

Layout Modification

Now that I managed to put ads here, it's time to give this blog a little touch of my personality. Lately I'm trying experiment with the layout and design of this blog, I guess it will take a couple of days to get this done and meet the design that suits my personality.

My next move then will be, creating an informative entry I think.

Blog for money

I just thought that it might be a good idea if I could earn money from blogging. So I'll take some time to learn about google adsense (captured my interest before but never really tried it) and this time I'll put some effort.
Having trouble on where to start this blog thou.
