    Relive the Sound of a Generation as Smart Music Live Presents: GetMusic NU Rock Years

    It’s been claimed that the advent of local Pinoy Rock in the 70s was the golden age of the genre – mainly because the urgency of the times produced local artists who would forever pave the way and influence those who were lucky enough to witness it first-hand. Even so, the following decades would prove to be a continuous uphill battle for the music to find its proper place in mainstream music.

    GA Tickets for Bruno Mars Now Being Resold at P11000

    The social media blew up when it was announced that that Bruno Mars will be bringing his “24K Magic World Tour” to Manila next year.

    Tickets for his third Manila show on May 3, 2018 went live at 10am yesterday and was reportedly sold out in less than an hour. As expected, several tickets are already being resold by scalpers at inflated price.

    The prices for Mars’ upcoming concert are between P2650 for General Admission and P23850 for VIP 1 Standing. Following the announcement of Mar’s sold out show, many have taken to social media to request for Day 2 which was granted and announced by MMI Live yesterday at 3pm. As at time of writing, day 2 is reportedly selling out and could be gone in a few hours but unlucky fans should not lose hope because some tickets will still be available due to invalid credit cards and fraud.

    A quick observation at the price range shows that tickets for General Admission are now being resold at P11,000 That’s almost 4 times the original price. Meanwhile tickets for VIP are being resold between P34,000-P38.000. Is anyone desperate enough to fork out this much cash for Bruno Mars? What could the government and industry do to prevent selling of tickets at inflated prices?

  • OASIS’ Frontman Liam Gallagher Finally Heading to Manila

    OASIS’ Frontman Liam Gallagher Finally Heading to Manila

     

     

    As the frontman for Oasis, Liam Gallagher swaggered his way through the britpop boom of the 1990s, belting out classic tunes like ‘Live Forever,’ ‘Wonderwall,’ and ‘Cigarettes and Alcohol.’ Despite ascending to a level of success not seen in the UK since The Beatles, Oasis’ foundations were built on shaky ground – namely the combustible relationship between Liam and older brother (and main songwriter) Noel. After years of acrimony the band finally called it quits in 2009, and the brothers went their separate ways.

    After releasing two records as member of the band Beady Eye, Liam goes it alone in 2017 with his first solo album As You Were. Featuring the pounding lead single ‘Wall of Glass’, it’s the next chapter in the life of one of rock’s most inimitable singers. Catch Liam playing new material alongside Oasis anthems when he rolls into Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City showing for one date only on August 14, 2017, tickets are available thru smtickets.com and outlets.
