Deen rokken'? :lol:

Ought to say "Mabuhay," academically; in practice though, we resort to "Welcome"...with an accent.

I hope you, Michelle, and Ami have a spectacular time, Rip ... pictures and reviews ASAP, please ...

by **weatherman90** » Sat Mar 14, 2009 12:39 am

Wow - you certainly know how to travel! Look forward to hearing all about it...

so I figured by 6 Mississippi you had been cuffed and dragged from the venue?

Just keep your pecker hard and your powder dry.

by **Rip Rokken** » Sat Mar 14, 2009 4:11 am

Thanks, everyone. Just got back and am exhausted, with an early and full day tomorrow. The EB was fantastic, with everyone from AP's family (dad, wife, kids, brother) attending. Erik Pineda did sing, as did Rodel, and they are both fantastic. Either would sound just as great with Journey as Arnel -- it's just freaky how talented these guys are. I also sang about 3 times and got rushed by ladies with roses at one point like Ulysses did at the H2H event when he played WYLAW on his sax. Incredibly good time! Now I sleep... Tomorrow after the concert, we are going to see the Zoo Band play, and I may try to sit in with them on a song.

Great pic, Ripster! Great to see ya out there having fun and enjoying the heck out of life!

Deen let you touch his toys?!?!?!?! :shock:

Cool that you can be there, Rip. They're gonna tear it up tonight. I'll be anxiously awaiting for the uploads.

* on a side note, Arnel's site is down for maintenance...or special surprises coming up? Wouldn't it be cool if there was a live stream hosting of the concert?

Now that's livin...

If you do the Boracay experience, it'll be like what you see in those Corona Beer Commercials except in the PI, it's San Miguel Beer.

Better watch out though...you could turn into an ex-pat.

Here is one pre-show pic from tonight. COOL!

This must have been taken after this ultimate fan was summoned to give an explanation to the real Castronovo.

by **Rip Rokken** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 10:17 am

I got very lucky, and will probably be on the DVD in the crowd. Here are some more shots that show how close I was -- right against the stage:

Too many cool things that happened, but will try to post some kind of review soon. Here is how close I was -- this is me pointing at Ross, but I never saw 4 fingers pointed back at me so maybe the old saying is a myth... LOL

AP rocking out!!!

YoungJrny -- I had a taxi ready for you, and wish you could have been here man! I thought of you right away when I saw this:

by **Saint John** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 10:25 am

Awesome pics, Rip. Have fun and safe travels, my friend. Did you happen to hear the attendance?

It looks like Arnel has been hittin the gym. Am I seeing that right? He looks kind of buff.
