The F.O.B. Experience
September 20, 2007 for me would have to be one of the best damn days of my life. It was really a day to remember, for I was able to go watch and see one of my fave bands, Fall Out Boy perform live! Even from the very start with Chicosci’s opening act I was already singing or should I say screaming my hearts out. Chicosci really proves that we pinoys know how to rock! I could say that it has to be one of their greatest performances that I’ve seen so far from the band. I guess they’ve really up their performance level since they’re opening for one of the famous bands in the world w/c also happens to be their labelmates, Fall Out Boy.
After Chicosci’s energetic set it was time for the band that everybody was waiting for. As soon as the lights went out all the people in the coliseum screamed! Even if the venue wasn’t that packed still you could hear the people’s scream loud. I for one had screamed my lungs out, matter of fact I don’t have any voice as I write this post. Then the band came up stage which made the people scream louder. From their very first song up “Thriller” to their last, “Saturday” I was singing and screaming along. The band did not disappoint. Everybody in my opinion had their money’s worth (since the ticket prices are quite expensive).
I was sitting up above in the upper box section but still the songs came out loud and clear. I even manage to save some video clips of their performances in my mobile phone. The concert was bliss. The band was performing non-stop from start to finish w/c makes you want to ask for more. I didn’t remember though how many songs they played, though I heard somebody said in our section it was 16 songs but im not sure. Regardless of how many songs they sung that night was still a blast.
To the band…“Thanks for the memories”…

I’ve also just finished writing my script for my comic book. Im quite happy ‘bout it since I’ve been planning it for the past 2 o 3 years and now it’s finished. Right now its just being edited by one of my good friends, Lance. I asked him if he could edit it and im really thankful that he did. He already read a few parts and I’m happy to know that he finds it interesting. I doing some character sketches right now and if all goes well im planning on drawing it starting October. I also have another friend of mine, Mike on board on this project, he’s gonna be my inker. He’s also one talented artist and im really honored and thankful that his willing to collaborate with me on this endeavor. It’s a 20 page comic-book and hopefully I could get it done before the year ends. Im still thinking of publishing it independently (but if ever somebody’s interested to publish it I’d be more than willing to) or may be just uploading it as an online comic. It’s been years since I’ve dreamt of making my own comic-book and now its starting to take shape. I’ll just keep this blog posted regarding developments about this small project. For now, I’m back to the drawing board.
I sent an S.O.S tonight
