I am very psyched and excited posting my first coverage as a blogger. It's always thrilling to try something new and to experience things I have never done before. As a fellow blogger commented while we're waiting for the VIPs to arrive, "now Ed you're on the other side of the fence."Last June 16 the Mall of Asia Arena, world-class venue for the world-class Filipino talents finally held its Grand Launch in a music event entitled “ICONS at the MALL OF ASIA ARENA.”
We were there as early as 4PM to get our tickets since we were also in MOA to meet friends who are crazy enough to line up just to get inside Uniqlo. Anyway, this event is history in the making, a once-in-a-lifetime treat where the biggest names in the Philippine music industry perform in one perfect venue. OPM icons like Lea Salonga, Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera, Jose Mari Chan, Ogie Alcasid, Regine Velasquez, Basil Valdez, Freddie Aguilar, Christian Bautista, Erik Santos, Juris, Jed Madela, Piolo Pascual, Bamboo, Arnel Pineda, The Company, Verni Varga, Dulce and Rachel Alejandro performed OPM classics written and composed by composers Ogie Alcasid, Willie Cruz, Goerge Canseco, Ryan Cayabyab, Jose Mari Chan and Louie Ocampo.
