Father's Day June 2012

So many exciting things happened on Father's Day, June 17, 2012.


Attended the 6am church service in Balibago West. We anticipate that the traffic to Tagaytay Highlands is going to be heavy, Father's Day it is, so we had to do everything earlier than usual.


Left home at 10am, traffic was not as bad as I thought it would be. We arrived at the Steakhouse around 1115am or so, plenty of time to sound check I thought.  But there were guests already as we walked in the dinning hall. Rush, rush, rush... 1155am, we're ready to rumble!!!


12noon time's up! We started doing what we do best, playing music to the TH members, families and their guests. Daming tao, pati Montana occupied.  That's about 250 to 300 guests.


1245pm, first break. Our manager (Dee) commented on how we sounded, so we did some adjustments.


0100pm. Back on the set. Nice to see people responding positively to every song we play.


0145pm. Second break. Manager comments on how great we sounded. Yey!


0200pm. Back on the set. We were rocking, literally. Our final song "Fix You" by Coldplay.


0245pm. Pack up time.


0300pm. Lunch at the Golf Club Canteen.  Walked around the clubhouse area across to the Funicular. Hopped on the funicular down to the Midlands. Had a look around the Midlands Clubhouse. Took some photos... Hopped back on to the funicular back to the Highlands.

0600pm. Left TH.  We were exhausted from all the walking. Dee drove us down to Sta. Rosa.


We dropped by Conti's in Nuvali before proceeding to Shakey's. We were #10 on the waiting list at Shakey's so Kyle suggested Hungry Hippo's at the Phoenix Gas Station. At first, there were only the three of us. Few minutes later the place was full. A mugga was compliments of Hungry Hippo's to all fathers dinning there.

Yummy!

Yummy, Yummy!
We had Magnum Almond Special for dessert c/o Kyle.  Conti's Mango Bravo for late dessert at home.

It was an exhausting but great day.

  1. ...And we're so sorry that we missed Manang Trining's 90th birthday celebrations. Wanted to go there after the gig but Kyle had to sort somethings with accounting at the admin office of TH.
