    Hard Rock Cafe, Makati

    Just a little over a year after their first Manila show, power pop band We the Kings returned for their own headlining concert at the Hard Rock Cafe. The show was made possible by Dayly Entertainment and Built By Sonic.

    Fans were already spotted roaming Glorietta as Travis, Danny, Hunter, Charles and Coley chatted with the media at the secret press conference.

    “Choosing a favorite album is like asking a parent to choose their favorite child.” shared drummer Danny Duncan when asked about their 3 successful studio albums. Frontman Travis Clark then added that while they could not choose a favorite, their first album was very close to them as it was their self-titled album that got them to where they are today.

    WTK arrival

    The band was greeted with resounding cheers as they entered the venue. Newly-appointed bassist Charles Trippy held up his camera as they made their entrance, taking video footage for his popular vlog, Internet Killed Television.

    Hours later, the doors were finally opened and the crowd trickled into the venue as the organizers sorted out the ticket-holders and listed guests.

    Opening act December Avenue clearly had technical issues with their set, their songs often pierced by screeches and feedback from the sound system. While not completely prepared for these issues, the band and tech crew managed to work with the situation.

    After much anticipation, it was time for the main event. We the Kings opened with the song “She Takes Me High”, followed by “Skyway Avenue” and “What You Do To Me”. The avid fans did not disappoint as they sang (or in many cases, screamed) the words right back at the boys.

    Tears For Fears are coming back to the Philippines to do 2 shows in Manila and Cebu by Ovation Productions

    Ovation Productions is bringing back Tears For Fears, one of the most successful and influential British synth pop duos of the ’80s will be performing at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on August 10 & 11, 2012 and in Cebu on August 12, 2012 at the Cebu Waterfront Hotel & Casino. Those who missed their 1 night concert last 2010, this is the time to relive and celebrate their music live in Manila and Cebu.

    Made up of duo Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, Tears For Fears enjoyed worldwide success in the 80s when British bands were setting the commercial and cultural bar in regards to pop music. They have sold in excess of 22 million albums worldwide spawning massive hits such as “Everybody Wants To Rule the World”, “Shout”, “Head Over Heels”, “Sowing The Seeds Of Love” and “Mad World”. Roland and Curt split in 1990 after their meteoric rise through the pop charts only to reunite and release a new album in 2004. Since then Tears For Fears continue to sell out shows throughout the world and maintain their status as one of pop music’s more productive musical collaborations.

    Tears For Fears will be performing their classic smash hits at the concert. Audiences can prepare to experience an amazing musical journey and a nostalgic trip to 1980s youth and pop music.
