"Music is a beautiful universal language that binds you and me."
True enough, as the first Sigaw ng Kabataan: Pandi Battle of the Bands 2007 was held last December 30, 2007 at the Pandi Sports Complex, all KaPandis were jamming and slamming as they wa
tched local young and aspiring musicians rock the night. The bodega-inspired stage completed the grunge theme of the PBOB.
The guest judges: Cookie Chua of Color it Red, Chris Padilla of Hilera and Reli de Vera of Sinosikat?. Guest host was Isko of FMD, joined by our very own local youth Gem Santos, who did good on her debut hosting. The guest musicians were all impressed by the young but very talented bands that night. ATE KUROT nailed their performance and took home the Grand Prize, while the very young but equally talented DAMALEDARIAN placed second, and the wittily named band BOBO THE WISEMAN placed third. Individual Awards were also given --- brothers Roylan, Roman and Ramon Dumangan of Ate Kurot bagged the Best Drummer, Best Bassist, and Best Vocalist respectively. 15-year old Calvin Guevarra who played by heart, took home the Best Guitarist Trophy. The judges gave a surprise performance with former Vice Mayor Atty. Noel Roxas on Bass, JR Oca and Chris Padilla on guitars, Reli on Drums and Cookie Chua with her powerful voice sang the classic soulful song "Chain of Fools". It was definitely a rare treat for the youth of Pandi! A first in Pandi again!
PBOB was organized by JR Oca as the first leg of the Talento Pandi Festival in cooperation with the Pandi Tourism Council, Asenso, Pandi! of Mayor Bobby Oca, Tau Gamma Phi Pandi Council and the Sangguniang Kabataan of Poblacion. This program aims to help the Pandi Tourism Council in promoting our town by encouraging our talented KaPandis to develop and share their
talents and eventually be recognized not only in Pandi but in other places as well. Music, arts, fashion, theater, and photography are just some of the aspects Talento Pandi Festival aims to develop by organizing future competitions, seminars and trainings for our KaPandis. Let us encourage our youth to dream big, take the clean path, and go for that dream!
Big big thank you to all the sponsors!:
