Proving the millennium adage “EMO IS NOT DEAD” to be true, fervent Filipino fans of the genre will surely be stoked that SECONDHAND SERENADE is adding another show for the Asia Tour 2024 at the New Frontier Theater on August 29th.
Due to the overwhelming response and immediate action of local Filipino fans, tickets to the original August 30th show quickly sold out. Both PULP Live World and Skesh Entertainment heeded the call of loyal fans from all over the country for another chance to witness and enjoy an evening of nostalgic hit tunes and all the right emo feels with like-minded fans.
In 2005, singer/songwriter/guitarist John Vesely – armed with an acoustic guitar and a recording of multi-tracked vocals – released a demo via his MySpace page under the moniker Secondhand Serenade. Deftly combining his strong online presence with a tight gigging ethic in his local area of San Francisco, Vesely received tremendous support –selling 15,000 copies of his album on his own, and garnering millions of plays on MySpace – making him the number one independent artist for months on the social media platform.
But it was 2008’s groundbreaking single “Fall For You,” (from his second release A Twist In My Story…) that made Secondhand Serenade a household name all over the world. The song – a timeless anthem of unrequited love. Filipino fans were especially drawn to the anthem and proved to be among his most rabid and loyal followers in the world.
Last February 2024, Secondhand Serenade created an exciting stir on his social media pages via a throwback post of his music video for the single “Your Call,” while hinting at his return to Manila after more than a decade.
And now it’s finally happening – TWICE. So there is no excuse not to relive and experience the magic of Secondhand Senerade’s music.
Tickets for August 29’s SECONDHAND SERENADE Asia Tour 2024 Live in Manila are available via TicketNet outlets nationwide and through ticketnet.com.ph. Ticket prices are as follows:
TICKET PRICES:
VVIP with Meet & Greet — Php10,000
VIP A — Php7,500

VIP C — Php4,500
LODGE — Php5,000
BALCONY — Php2,500

We got beer, loaded with a lot of music during The Itchyworms’ Beer O Pag-Ibig Grand Launch at the 123 Block on the evening of July 13.
Presented by Gabi Na Naman Productions, the event turned out to be a success as all the beer packs, composed of two spectacular flavors: Beer and Pag-Ibig sold out a few hours before The Itchyworms started the show.
Starting the party were the newcomers The Revisors, whose two members are Jazz Nicolas’ sons. The youngsters played a catchy mix of pop-rock reminiscent of the ‘90s. This was followed by Blaster and the Celestial Klowns who dished out a psychedelic blend of disco rock. Indie rock veteran Ciudad also entertained the crowd with favorites like “Get You Closer” and “My Emptiness”
When Ebe Dancel took the stage, he congratulated The Itchyworms for having their craft beer line. He shared that when Sugarfree was starting, they would often be in the same lineup in bar gigs. Whatever spare money they had, they used it to buy beer after gigs. Ebe played “Prom”, “Bawat Daan” and “Mariposa”.
The stars of the evening, The Itchyworms, showcased their extensively diverse musicality. Jugs Jugueta, Jazz Nicolas, Kelvin Yu, Mikey Amistoso, and Weckl Mercado were on top of their game as they played track after track, including newer material like “The Silence” and “Panic in My Mind”, a cover of The Beatles’ “Eleanor Rigby” and B-sides like “Pariwara” and “One Ball”.
The Itchyworms thanked the audience for supporting their beer venture and for coming to the show. “Daig pa namin San Miguel, nagsold out yung beer namin,” Jugs joked. They also said that they will be producing another batch soon.
Of course, the audience went wild when it was time for the all-time Itchyworms faves “Love Team”, “Buwan”, “Gusto Ko Lamang sa Buhay”, “Akin Ka na Lang” and the much celebrated “Beer”. The band was supposed to cap off the night after that, but they gave in to the crowd’s jeers for another song which turned out to be the bittersweet “Di Na Muli”.
The energy was electric as Watsons gathered the biggest names in the P-Pop scene for the press conference of the highly anticipated Watsons Playlist: The P-Pop Power Concert.
Superstars SB19, Alamat, HORI7ON, G22, and Kaia thrilled fans with exclusive updates and teasers for the concert set to take place on August 18 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.
The 2024 thrust of Watsons Playlist is all about supporting and empowering the P-Pop scene – bringing together P-Pop groups and fan communities for an epic celebration of music. “This 2024, we want to give the spotlight to the amazing P-Pop talents that we have – thriving in both the local scene and the global stage. It is our responsibility to support these talents as they banner Pinoy pride worldwide,” said Jared De Guzman, Customer Director of Watsons Philippines and Head of Watsons Playlist. “Through Watsons Playlist, we also get to reward our Watsons Club members with a free concert when they can look good, do good, and feel great with Watsons.”
During the press conference SB19’s Josh shared his excitement: “Masaya po kami kasi noong nagsisimula pa lang ang P-Pop, hindi pa nagkakaroon ng mga ganito kalaking events. Ngayon, mayroon nang tulad ng Watsons Playlist na willing magbigay sa amin ng ganitong klaseng plataporma para ipamalas ang mga talents naming mga P-Pop artists.”
SB19’s Justin added, “Ngayon for P-Pop na talaga ang concert ng Watsons Playlist, nabibigyang pansin na ang mga P-Pop groups ngayon.” Ken echoed this sentiment, “ang ganitong platform ay sobrang laki ng tulong sa P-Pop community para mas makilala pa globally.”
A feel-great night to remember
The Watsons Playlist artists enjoyed reconnecting with each other and their fans, including A’Tin, Magiliws, Anchors, Bullets, and Zaias. It was an evening for the P-Pop community. SB19’s Stell said, “We’re very excited na makasama kayo kasi yung mga ganitong klase bihira ito mangyari. Sa mga ganitong klaseng event lang tayo nabibigyan ng pagkakataong magkasama-samang lahat.” Justin described it as a celebration and reunion.
HORI7ON’s Marcus expressed the group’s honor at participating, “This is actually our first time to attend something like this. Definitely an honor to do it alongside other P-Pop acts. We’re very honored, and definitely, we’ll do our best!”
Surprise look-good stages from the hottest P-Pop groups at the Watsons Playlist
The artists promised unstoppable back-to-back performances for the Watsons Playlist concert to deliver a feel-great experience.
“We treated all of the concerts and performances that we’ve had before as a conditioning for the upcoming Watsons Playlist,” said Alamat’s Jao. “Trust us, may niluluto kaming bago! We’re preparing a lot of surprises for you.”
Kaia’s Angela added, “May prinepare kaming new choreography, and new arrangements of our songs. We’re also preparing for our upcoming EP kung saan ipapakita namin sa Watsons Playlist.”
G22’s AJ and Alfea teased, “We just finished our meeting the other day. We have production numbers na bonggabels. Since first time namin sa Watsons, we’re giving our very very best, the toppest of the best.”
One of the concert’s highlights will be the collaborations among the artists – this year, Watsons Playlist will feature not one, but two major collaborations.
SB19’s Josh said, “Nakakatuwa po kasi may mga exciting collaborations po ahead, sa mga bagong areglo, mga bagong pinaghahandaan dito sa big stage ng Watsons Playlist,” revealing the a grand collaboration between SB19, Alamat, and HORI7ON.
