Here We Go Again and Again And Again...


hello peeeeps...

Wala nanaman kaming singer... hay naku... too bad because Jinky was already becoming the singer na i was hoping her to be...

Ganito kasi yun... it's been a long while since we played as a complete unit (Me, Charles, Jinky, Janpol and Rene) ... and we haven't had any decent practice for quite some time na... last Saturady was buzz night but Rene (Bassist) told us a weeks prior that he won't be able to make it kasi ma duty sha (nurse po si Rene). So me and Charles decided that we'll go Unplugged sa Buzz Night since yung availabitlity ni Janpol was also in Question... A few hours prior to Buzz Night, me, Charles and Jinky were at a 3-way phone conference kulitan when Rene texted us that he's available for the night... Candyaudioline (my other band) was slated to perform that same night at Don Bosco Mandaluyong but since we (Candy) was having problems of its own, i decided to let Soft Pillow Kisses play in it's place... Going to the gig. Jinky was already having problems with her "Confidence Level" having a good view of the crowd from our band room. When we went back stage it was really obvious that she was very uncomfortable and that her stage fright was really getter the better of her... We went on to play 5 songs infront of about 4,000 people... i could see her very nervous face from the widescreen tower about 4 meters away... during each song, i constantly reminded her just to stay calm and to relax... but she did otherwise... at the end of our set... she kept on apologizing... i told her na i think we did a decent set and assured her that everything was fine. i also told her to relax a bit because we were also playing at buzz night in a short while...

It was around 1am but my chances of reaching mayrics was close to impossible... so i called up Charles and Janpol and convinced them to play without me. They were really hesitant at first but with Kel's (Candyaudioline drummer) help and convincing power... they did play. Kel played my guitar parts while Rene sang my parts also...

I met up with Charles and Janpol afterwards and they told me that the Mayrics thing they just did was really great... i was really happy to hear that but they also told me they were not pleased with Jinky's attitude during the Don Bosco gig... Well, so was I... but we decided to forget the whole thing and enjoyed the rest of the night doing what we do best... hehehe... EATING...

Come Sunday morning, Jinky texted me that she will no longer sing for Pillow... Oh well... I'm looking forward to better days ahead...
