"Huwag na magpatumpik-tumpik pa! Boom Karakaraka!" - Vice Ganda's infectious song plays in my head in most days when I see the Bromance trailer or his GGV commercials. The "Unkabogable" box office star and record breaking concert artist will hit Araneta's stage for his 3rd major solo concert this May 17 at the Big Dome. Titled "i-Vice Ganda Mo 'Ko Sa Araneta", this concert with barely a thousand tickets to sell left, is all set and raring to go!
Last night, the 50th Binibining Pilipinas was crowned at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Fifty beautiful candidates competed for this prestigious title after various training sessions, outreach activities, TV guestings and the like. I am proud to be part of this historical event, as Ariella Arida, was chosen to be this year's representative to the Miss Universe Pageant.
Can you feel the love tonight? This Saturday, December 8, feel the love and get serenaded by Sir Elton John at the Araneta Coliseum. For this one-night only rendezvous, I'm pretty sure that you would reminisce to his famous songs that inspired us to love and live.
I can feel that Christmas is just around the corner. But what is Christmas without the dancing lights, the mistletoe or a giant Christmas Tree? Luckily for us, we wouldn't have to wonder. Because on November 9, the Araneta Center, together with Coca-Cola, will finally light its giant Christmas Tree. See the details below for this exciting festivity!
It was a fair Saturday afternoon and was hanging out with the boyfriend when I received a text from Az of http://azraelsmerryland.blogspot.com, if I would want to cover the Foster the People concert at the Smart Araneta Coliseum that night. Too bad that I only know of one song, but I still said yes because concerts will always be my thing. Held last October 6, Foster the People Live in Manila was presented by Midas Promotions, Dayly Entertainment and Karpos Multimedia.
I arrived at the coliseum at 7PM and was seated at the Upper Box, though alone, I enjoyed my “me time” listening to their hits. Their first song was Miss You, and the crowd sang altogether with vocalist, Mark Foster. I loved how the band has so many fans and their glow sticks lighted the Smart Araneta Coliseum. The other members of the band are Mark Pontius for drums and Cubbie Fink playing the bass.

Their setlist includes Life On The Nickel, Houdini, Broken Jaw, I Would Do Anything For You, Waste, Love, Call It What You Want, Don’t Stop (Color On The Walls), Warrant and Helena Beat. When they left the stage, the people were asking for more, so they went back and sang Ruby and their most popular song (and the only one I know by heart), Pumped Up Kicks.

Most of the people around me are teenagers and students and they know the lyrics by heart. Good thing I didn’t feel out of place because the Araneta Coliseum is so cozy. Their extreme transformation in terms of their facility is wonderful especially for people who enjoy concerts like me. For someone as OC as me, I needed to feel comfortable when it comes to an event venue and they didn’t fail my expectations. I must say that I enjoyed watching the concert alone. And I am definitely crossing that out of my bucket list.
The stage is so cool! (Photo credits to Bruce Casanova of Araneta Center)
