something to listen to
Mark (former PNU classmate & seatmate/brother of my co-worker) lent me a couple of CDs. It reminded me of our PNU days when I would be looking forward to our Saturday classes because my friends would always have something to talk and laugh about. With Mark, it has always been music, movies, and traveling. has always been my music supplier. when classes get boring, we would swap info and stories about new bands, musicians, his latest mp3 acquisitions, and even, movies.
And today, I found five CDs on my desk. Mark has told me days ago that his sister would bring the CDs he wants me to listen to… I just didn’t expect that it was a lot because later on, his sister handed me two more CDs. My weekend will surely be music-filled. Here are the CDs that will likely burn my ears over the weekend:
1 The Best of Smashing Pumpkins-Acoustic - listening to this one right now.
2 The Killer In You - Smashing Pumpkins Tribute
3 My Chemical Romance-Piano Tribute
4 Acoustic Tribute To Dave Matthews Band (I wish they did a string tribute instead)
5 Foo Fighters’ Skin and Bones
6 Music and Lyrics OST
7 Korn Unplugged
Talk about diversity.
Still on music, the 2007 Fete de la Musique is on June 23 at Malate, Manila. The music fest will run from 2pm until all musicians lined up to play have performed. This yearly festival is in line with the ongoing French Spring Festival. It features diverse music from World, Blues, Jazz; Hiphop; and Rock.
World stage is in Nakpil Cor. Ma. Orosa; HipHop in Adriatico St; Universal/Main in Plaza Rajah Sulayman; and Rock in Remedios Circle.
Among the artists I want to check out are Daydream Cycle, Drip, Bagetsafonik, Paramita, Sound, Spy, and Pinikpikan (because I have heard so much about them). Puro sa World, hehe…
