With our 39th anniversary coming soon, the recent jams had shaped up to my expectations and showed glimpses of what was in store come June 14th. For 2 consecutive weekends, the stage was indulged with awesome talents with the house band getting more success in turnout and stage time. Surely we can expect another epic musical extravaganza in the offing.
House band honchos Tinnie Esguerra, Rick Trinidad along with Anton Atengco, Rj Pineda and Xtine Mercado made it back to the room, joining me on consecutive weekends with the inclusion of main vocalist Monchie Henares finally making it this time around. The talented Adriano sisters Michelle and Kate were present, as well, adding up to the already illustrious line-up.
The jam was breathtaking with Rj lording the keys and Anton on lead guitar. Tinnie, Rick, Xtine and the rest of the band mates complimenting contributions blended superbly and masterfully in every tune played. It was good to be able to try out new songs to add to the repertoire. Nothing beats a good assemblage of top notch musicians in action.
Among the others who ably pitched in to peform were regulars Ryan Nacino, Pau Villanueva, Ryan Pineda and Fonz Cabal. Drummer Alvin Alvaro Nacino was in the house, too, completing the roster. The youngsters took over the stage after the house band was done, with the exception of Rick who tirelessly continued to play bass with them. Nice jam guys!
It was indeed a pleasant surprise to see Joel Disini and charming wife Gigi around. It was their very first time to visit and experience our regular Friday jam night. Joel and Gigi happens to be our very gracious hosts at the recent Pete’s Place Music Room Summer Jam held at their plush resort/farm in Pintoresco, Alfonso Cavite. We hope see them back in the room with their other friends next time soon.
Always glad to see my Air force child hood friends, siblings Deana and Macau based Red Aquino and their families around. Truly exemplifies the true definition of an extended family for me. Our congratulations to Red’s daughter Caroline for graduating recently with honors as a cum laude. Kudos and more power to our beloved Caroline.
Also, special mention to Richard Parcia, Reynald Perez, Arabelle Jimenez, Gab Villanueva, Beth Marquez, Nikki Segundo and the rest of the others guys who made it over. You guys rock!
And so the story goes for this weekend’s festivity. Countdown commences for our much awaited coming event. See you all next week.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE! GOD BLESS US ALL!
