Another great addition to the Philippine rock scene will be revealed as alternative rock n roll independent band BOK76 launches their highly anticipated debut album “Revelations” at Club Dredd, Eastwood City, Libis on Nov 28, Friday. The Album is comprised of 12 tracks which include their newest single
“Sa Panaginip”.
BOK76 (a.k.a Bonded on Kinship) has been in the music scene for quite sometime now and has released several singles and music videos, highlighted by the hits “Traydor” and “Last Kiss” which have garnered positive response from a significant fraction of today’s listening public.
The band, which is composed of Erwin Bautista (vocals), Donini Montealegre (guitars/vocals), Jay Castelo (drums/percussion), Owee Nicolas/Nino Paz (bass) and Elwynn Dayrit (guitars), has been continuously playing in various bars in the Metro including big events such as the TANDUAY Rhum on the Rock, MYX MO, and Summer MYX Fest.
According to the band, “Revelations” is the appropriate title for the album since this will be their time to “reveal” their music to world. Mixed and mastered by Shinji “Ilabas mo na ang helicopter” Tanaka, the guitar-driven tracks and a mixture of both poetic and cliché lyrics, drawn from everyday experiences and emotions, are what stand out the most in the album.
In the launch, the band will be performing most of the songs in the album plus some of their favorite covers in an hour and a half’s set of pure pinoy alternative rock n roll. To make the event more exciting, the band has invited some of their friends in the industry to play in this significant occasion, which was made possible by Red Horse Beer; Home of Nu Rock NU107; Odysseylive.net; MYX Phils.; and RJ Underground Radio 105.9.
I would like to personally thank Red Box for graciously sponsoring the LGBT Bloggers’ Night last Sunday, November 16 at Red Box, Greenbelt 3.
Also, I would like to thank Joyce Pogoy and GeiserMaclang for helping us make this event happen.
And of course I’d like to thank all the LGBT Bloggers and their friends for coming and having fun with us!
For those who missed it, we know there was something else more important that you had to attend to, and we completely understand.
Congratulations to Yffar and Rainbow Bloggers Philippines for the launch of the group blog.
Congratulations also to the winners of Delifrance and Red Box GCs and domain names (courtesy of BaklaAko.com, of course hehe).
But the party and the fight is not yet over. The Manila Pride March 2008 is almost here and we still have a lot of things to accomplish!
It is in this light that we are inviting (once again), all LGBT bloggers (and supporters of LGBT causes) to join us as we represent our online community in this year’s Pride March. We will be scheduling another get-together and meeting before the end of November so we can all discuss how we will represent our community at the Pride March. We already have a budget for the rental of the truck we will use for the float.
What we need now is commitment from everyone to join us on December 6 as we represent the LGBT Blogging Community at the Pride March. We need your help, support, and participation so we can tell not only the online world, but also the rest of the universe that we are here, we are queer, and we will stand up and fight for our rights!
The registration form for the LGBT Bloggers for the Pride March can be found after the jump.
