Maggot Update For Maggot Fans...

Hello Everyone...

I finally got a chance to talk to Maggot... Maggot would like to say "Hi" to her fans and would also take this as an opportunity to say sorry to them for her being "away" for such a long time now... According to this superstar-audioliner, she very busy with her review and has asked yours truly that she'll be shying away from the lime-light for the time being to concentrate on her studies... Quite sad indeed but she'll be playing this Saturday. So all you fans of Maggot, i suggest you take this opportunity to catch a glimpes of her "Hotness" bacause after Saturday's gig, she'll revert back to invisible mode... but she did promise me that she'll try to show up at gigs every now and then if her time permits... Oh yan Dennis, ngiti naman dyan...

Kel, pagaling ka ha... kailangan na naitn ibangon ang karangalan (Meron nga ba?) ng Candyaudioline...

Aside from Charles, i have also designated Rene (Soft Pillow Kisses) to do Bass Chores for Candy...

That's All Folks...

Last Night Mayrics Outing...


This is who we are at the moment... Dennis, Kel, Cukooh and me... Charles played bass in place of Maggot... Got this pic from Kuh's multiply site... http://kuhkees.multiply.com/
Hello everyone...

not much to say really about last night's gig... i guess we did quite well... Thanks to Charles for filling in or Maggot who's very busy with her review right now and at the say time, we don't have any idea on how to get in touch with her... Cuckooh on the otherhand did well according to friends who were able to see her play but me on the otherhand wasn't quite satisfied at the way she fared last night... she could've been more than what she was last night based on the last preparations that we did a night before yesterday's gig... oh well, i did feel the pressure that she was feeling that night... and dami ba naman nagulat na cya na yung bagong singer namin ngayon...
i was feeling a bit off too and so was kel... blame it on the venue's (Mayrics) "Airconditioned-less" atmosphere... Sana nag-70's nalang kami... kaya lang, the best pa rin ang mayrics para sa mga bandang who go for all out noise...

Bawi nalang cguro nextime around... Hoy Maggot!!! Paramdam ka naman... Miss ka na namin!!!

... Pahabol... nakita ko lang ito sa isang blog (Babools 007)...

..."candyaudioline ang sumunod! magaling talaga sila. kahit parang alang gana sila ng mga panahong yun kumanta. "lightyears" naman kinanta nila. radioactive sago project sumunod. siyempre, "alkohol" ang tinugtog nila na kasama sa Ultraelectromagneticjam album. sumunod ang urbandub. sunod naman ang spongecola. blah! kaya nakapag pahinga ang mp3 player ko. hininto ko muna ang pag re record. hehe. salindiwa ang sumunod na aminadong hindi sila sikat, kaya doble pahinga si mp3..."

isn't that a nice thing to hear/or to read about specially now for i feel that the morale of this band is a bit low due to the fact that it is being reborn again for the nth time... i admit that maybe it's my fault. but the hell with it... okey

to my present bandmates, salamat sa pagtityaga at pag-intindi sa akin...

Improving I Guess...

Hello everyone...

Our new singer, Cuckooh has already 2 gigs under her belt and i can say that she has already improved a lot... i guess her progress has sped up a bit... thanks to the practice sessions and her interest to sing for Candyaudioline...

At Buzz Night last May 5, she had a difficult time singing songs that were sung in a low voice... according to a bandmate from Soft Pillow Kisses, she was at a lost during songs like "An Empty You" and "Flaming Walls"... quite understandable because i did see that it wasn't really her range but i believe that it can be fixed thru practice... Yesterday, we played a gig somewhere in Cubao... a very awkward gig for us because of the sound system... infact, i was really thinking of not pushing thru with it because it would really do us harm if Cuckooh did not deliver the right notes... the set-up was more of a PA system than a gig set-up... the vocals would really be way up... but i decided to get on with it... before our slot, i got Cuckooh to practice with me in some quiet area within the venue. during that short impromptu session, i had a chance to observe the real quality of her voice... it was a bit surprised at how smooth it was... no more trembling-out-of-pitch tones. her pronounciations as well were almost what i had wanted and what i had taught her... this got me excited and i was so eager to test it at once. it was also a chance for me to prove to some bandmates that she was a good choice for a Candyaudioline vocalist... but still, i had some doubts...

before going up stage, she was begging me to back-out because she knew so many people from the crowd. i told her that i think it was the proper gig to test her improvement. she half-heartedly agreed to sing... so there we were doing our first song "Flaming Walls" - one song which she was always having trouble with... i let her be the louder voice at first but 3 words into the song, i heard ver voice cracking and going out of key so i instantly sang louder then her and hoped that she would become relaxed and in the process, be able to execute the songs the way she did during the impromtu rehearsal we did... i was not let down... from that time on did sing moderately well... that was enough for me for the meantime...

all i have to do now is help her improve more and hopefully become a better vocalist that the last one we had...

A Good Start...

















Candyaudioline (2nd Batch) AJ, Dino, Me, Cheng and Obie...


How i'd wish that i'd never have to change members again...


Hello Everyone...

Candyaudioline's set at last Saturday's Buzz Night was really great... I was anxiously looking forward to play that night because it was going to be a test of sorts for me and Cuckooh...

All my friends and bandmates felt that she would not be able to cut through but based on last night's performance, i guess it would not take long for me to make her sing the way i wish she'd sing... i think she has potential and i'm very optimistic again...

And fate seems to be smiling at this band once more...

Yes Dennis, we did sound awesome that night... Everyone seemed to be up to it. Specially Maggot who effortlessly played her heart out... "We've Been There" sounded like a monster and so did "Wicked Glances"... Too sad we did just 8 songs... I was already starting to forget how great Candyaudioline is.

Thanks to last Saturday's set... Great gig BANDMATES!!!
