I thought it was just gonna be another uneventful Saturday for me last weekend until I remembered I was going to the Tyrone Wells concert(yes sis you're not the only one excited about concerts.. i'm sorry if you're tired reading about my endless tyrone wells lyrics blog. DEAL WITH IT! mwahaha).. So there I was contemplating on what I would be wearing to concert coz it was really cold when Jun called and told me he had tickets for the Clippers game at 12:30. Yay! I've never been to the Staples center to watch a game, I went there when they opened the halls to sell jerseys and all that stuff but I wanted the action of a game (I miss the green archers..) and there I was getting my wish.. ooo i should write that on my things to do.. anyway so we watched the Clippers against the Grizzlies and we won wahoo, 112 to 91. It was a good game coz they won mwahahaha... well if we didn't it would have still been good coz we were on area 115, row 14, seat 3-5.. it was close and my new camera phone took good pictures.. oh thanks to sherwin for the tickets...
tyrone wells concert...
allen and i decided to meet early so we could be near the front so we met at his apartment around 7 which gave us ample to time to look for very good parking and line up behind all the older people who weren't interested in staying anywhere near the front, they wanted to be up at the mezzanine and be seated.. yay! so there we were waiting in line until they opened the gates at 8pm and I was thinking I think I brought the wrong jacket again, yes I have been here for 5 long freakin' years and I still can't get the right jacket for the right weather, I always end up either getting frozen or too heated up... and on this case it was getting hotter by the minute hehehe... so we saw mark, tyrone's drummer/marketing mgr i think, he was schmoozing with the people in front, the whole band was good at that making people feel not only good coz of the music but coz they were ubber nice...
so when they let us in I told allen I wanted to be the front, where if you wanted you could have gone up the stage, that's where I want to be at concerts, IN THE FRONT. not only do you have a place where you can put your stuff but u can lean on the stage too, you don't have to tire your legs out alot...=)
the concert started with Mikey G and Dan from Danville and I can say that whoever chose them to start the show didn't make a mistake in choosing them, they were very good, the music was soothing, refreshing and it was something you'd want to listen to again and again, too bad they didn't have cd's to sell. Of course picture freak that I was I took pictures, not only coz I liked the group but one guy reminded me of jun(hoi oteli ano d ba kamukha mo siya =) ). There were 3 of them so I don't know if it was mike or dan I didn't take a picture of. sorry, I couldn't see who he was out of all the blond guys there, the other 2 stood out coz one was asian and looked like my friend and the other had dark hair and he looked kinda like clark kent...
there were only 2 acts for the night before tyrone, so after the all guy group came the all girl group.. I can't stop raving about these chicks.. they're called raining jane..they were awesome, their music was good.. each girl had her own thing happening, mai had her cello which hypnotized you to listen(or was it only coz i was in front of her that she was able to hypnotize me) and her ethereal voice which captivates you, becky had her sitar which added a different sound to every song they played with it, chaska had her awesome guitar skills and her angelic voice, then there was mona with her awesome drumming skills, not only that but she had a whole different expression when she was playing the drums and the cajon... i listened to them on myspace when i learned they were performing with tyrone and i can say i liked their music on myspace, i loved them live.. it was awesome...
omg every tyrone wells concert i went to, well that counts 2 now has been well worth the wait... 2 hrs i think mwahhaa.. i love him performing.. ey sis i have a new tyrone story for you...so he was telling us this story before he sang sea breeze.. he said he was performing at one of those swap meets and there was this girl on a phone saying out loud, girl you should hear this guy here he's singing sea breeze, so tyrone asked her who she thought it was that wrote the song.. and she said my friend sean, shawn(who knows) wrote it for my best friend.. so tyrone told her no, i wrote that song together with my friend, and after a while of arguing who wrote the song it dawned on the girl that all along sean was lying and that he just copied the song and told them it was his, and so she was saying, he better not tell me he wrote another song that you sang... and tyrone asked her what other songs did he give you, she said another song that he wrote.. hehehe... i forgot what it was.. hehehe...so there after 3 days i still have my tyrone high hehehe... i love his songs.. oh there will be an album launching on February 6, wahoo..
this whole tyrone high is just like my parokya high.. i just gotta watch it and i just gotta have it(the music that is) mwahhaa.. so here you go...parokya with bamboo on march 17, 2007 at the avalon.. see you there... mga lola agahan natin para sa harap tayo ulit mwahhaa... scratch the info on my brother's gig on the 17th, it's gonna be on the 11th.. so come one come all and help support my brother's band at the gig on melrose...
