Post OJO ROCK N' ROLL!
Me and wife went to a historic rock and roll event this evening---Juan Dela Cruz Band invented Pinoy Rock in the 70's and considered rock and roll legends in my country.

For the first time in more than three decades, the rock legends Joey "Pepe" Smith, Wally Gonzalez and Mike Hanopol re-unite for a special concert accompanied by a Philharmonic Orchestra (Manila Philharmonic Orchestra).

I thought to myself, OJO ROJO could rock this gig! Since Martin's last show was rock and roll-themed...ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!

Image

The venue is at the Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP)---a very prestigious venue fit for the rock and roll gods!

Image

Image

First, the front acts were class acts too.... this is a band called "Radioactive Sago Project"---a spoken word/bebop jazz/punk rock kinda band...really heavy stuff...

Image

Image

"The Jerks" led by Chikoy Pura are legends in their own right in the Philippine rock scene.

Image

Image

Image

Next up...the sultry, barefooted "Lucia" rocked the house....

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Juan dela Cruz was awesome!!!

Now, a little back stage action....

Image

Image

Pepe Smith is a Pinoy rock god, and sometimes referred to as the Mick Jagger of the Philippines...cool and very funny guy!

Image

Image

Pepe , dont eat him!

Image

Chikoy is a little baffled...

Image

Lourd meets Ojo.

Image

Ojo getting some "action" ...smooth...

I will check out this band.

Ever heard of The Aga Muhlach Experience? They were a short-lived band in the 90s. I don't think they were famous but my friend was involved.

I've seen them play once or twice man---they're good..They are probably influenced by Juan Dela Cruz no doubt.
