Brand New Heavies in Manila! Cucu and i got to watch an amazing show by the pioneers of Acid Jazz. The show started really late, but it was worth it! And maybe because it was so late, the organizer gave away validated parking tickets. Parking at Sofitel is expensive: 50php for each succeeding hour!
The sound guys were annoying though. There were technical problems the whole night from the opening acts (Sinosikat?, Mishka Adams) up to BNH. What was more annoying was this stupid idea of theirs to turn everyone's volume up to hide the technical glitches. So by the time it was BNH's turn, everything was so loud it didn't sound nice anymore. Also, Simon Bartholomew's guitar couldn't be heard at all despite the number of times he signaled to turn his volume up.
The show was great nevertheless. They were even thanking everyone for coming, when we should be the one thanking them for coming over. What's more, they even hung out with the people who stayed behind. Here are some pics:
