chik and i have always been fans of local bands, and we really do appreciate the local music scene and we try to support them as much as we can (like buying original cds and watching live gigs). and what we did recently has probably been our most outward show of support, haha.

SONIC BOOM- a monthly music event that showcases bands like Urbandub, The Ambassadors (our favorite), Typecast, Hilera, Faspitch, etc. is gearing towards their 2nd anniversary. it's going to be a huge gig and there's going to be 16 bands and 2 stages to prove it.

while playing with the idea of promoting the said gig, chik and i came up with a countdown teaser to the event. and here's the finished product:

haha, if you're not too sure, that's chik in the picture. ;)

and we're just really happy with the outcome of this little project, especially since we just experimented on this because we've never done anything like this before.

i guess our hardwork paid off, because the people behind Sonic Boom featured this very picture on their website so we're very flattered and happy to have helped them promote the event. ;)

if you live in the philippines and want to catch the show, it's at Atchie's El Pueblo, Ortigas. it's gonna be on the 23rd of this month and starts at 7pm. here's a full list of the bands who'll be participating:
