It was the most blissful six minutes of my life. Shocked, I was rooted to my seat the whole time. All I managed to shout to the top of my lungs for three or four times was "Bamboo".
Sis mentioned, the advertisement was for Sarah G's concert. Bff brought that fact to my attention as well, But what the hell. It's been three years since I saw Bamboo perform live. So with the hope of seeing him again, what's P850 anyways???
The concert started late which is both good and bad. It turned out that we had no tickets yet. I had to go to SM to see availability only to find that they were pulled out earlier in the day. At La Salle, the tickets were sold at the gate and the queue looks like nobody's dying to buy them so I waited for Joh before getting ours. By the looks of the people milling around the flag poles, the show wasn't going to start very soon so we went to the Stinger's Food Court to grab dinner. We tarried until 9 pm and it was not surprising that the chance of getting seats at the front was no longer possible. It was already 10 when Sarah performed her first number, Instead of some entertaining front act band or solo, local sponsors staged some contests promoting their products :( And it was an hour and a half later that Bamboo appeared with a duet (Iris) followed by solo. Sigh!
In fairness to Sarah G though, she did deliver. Her numbers were well prepared including the dance numbers by the GForce. It was the electronic backdrop and the lights that caught my attention first, then the accompanying band led by Louie Ocampo and her rockin' version of "Anak". Watching the performance was like watching the MTV except that performance of the other guest. Overall though, I am glad I watched (I can see ace's big smile with this positive review).
