How does it feel to be Robi Domingo?

I wonder how he feels — from smart cars to Katipunan to Cagayan de Oro, Robi Domingo’s face is plastered across the local flora and fauna. Robi Domingo, from Pinoy Big Brother fame, is Nokia’s latest brand endorser for the youth segment (that’s the Nokia 7210 Supernova and Nokia 2680).

If that were you all over Manila, how would you feel? 🙂

(No I’m not trying to make fun of him. It’s more like …. wow! What a leap from housemate to nationwide poster boy!)

Backstage Photos with Chicane in Manila

Had the very rare chance to spend some time backstage with Chicane. I think this is their third time in Manila, but this was the very first time for me to see them live at the World Trade Center. People often mistake Chicane for a DJ when in fact they are a band of four (at least for this tour) – drums, vocals, guitar and keyboards / programming.

Despite the many sound f*** ups (I’ve never seen a concert go on dead air twice on the same night!), this was one of the best live shows I’ve ever experienced. It wasn’t Chicane’s fault for the sound system. The guys from Big Fish said that their equipment was being harassed by dust particles *shrug*. Sucks that the technical glitch happened while they were playing Offshore. Seriously, this could have been one of the best concerts I attended if not for the sound system! It’s a huge blow to the sponsors.

A huge thanks to Nikka from Nokia for scoring us tickets. I was with fellow “Chicanenees” Rico, Jane and Christian, Phoebe (who manged to score an interview with vocalist Natasha Brocklebanks!), Helga and Rockstar Fritz.

If you wish to grab these photos, feel free to do so. I’d just appreciate a photo credit. That’s not a lot to ask for since these photos aren’t even watermarked. More photos after the jump.
