Back To The Edge 2
October 26, 1995
Mayric’s Music House
Espana, Manila
Almost 13 years ago, this concert was held as a follow up to the successful first part held two months before. The concert was broadcast live on NU107 (jsut like the first one) and had other big name sponsors along with Red Horse Beer who was the sole sponsor of the first part.
A petty squabble between my band’s lead singer and the club’s manager was still fresh at this time therefore we werent able to participate in this event. But all of us were there to enjoy the gathering of new wave fanatics.
It was unfortunate that I wasnt able to capture the audio broadcast of this event. Most of my shots were submitted to Front Act Music Magazine which I worked for. What was left with me were the rejected shots for which I am posting here.
The Eraserheads covered mostly the cure and other new wave songs they used to play. Dodong Cruz (the Youth) did some solo numbers with his guitar. Cookie Chua and GP of Color it Red followed the performance of Dodong in the same “acoustic” manner. The star of the night was Sugar Hicup which actually launched their first album. Other bands who performed were Iris, Dry Water, Wet Paint, Days of Sirius, and a jam which featured Alfie of halflifehalfdeath on vocals.
