What is a food market? Well can I just say that I just pity you if you have not been to a food market, you are really missing out on a lot! Basically a food market is like a tyange where you have all sorts of different kind of food instead of shoes, clothes, bags, accessories, you have food! All sort of food from pasta, pizza, Japanese food, ihaw-ihaw, shawarma, cakes, pastries, if I type in every sort of food in a food market this blog post will never end.
So we were invited to the grand launch of FLAVORS - the newest food market in the Metro (check out the blog post here). While food has always been a welcome incentive to go anywhere, the grand launch of FLAVORS was made extra special because Urbandub will be performing! Wohoooo! Paul and I really love Urbandub, they are one of our favorite OPM acts so seeing them while stuffing ourselves with food was an easy equation to a happy tummy and eargasm.
Unfortunately Paul had work until 9PM and the event would start at 6PM which meant I would have to go there alone, bring the camera (Paul calls it an armada, because it's a lot and it's heavy) and take photos. Even if Paul has been teaching me to take photos, I'm still apprehensive when I have to be the one behind the lens. Most of the photos here were taken by me. :P Paul was able to catch up, he made it during the last 2 songs of Urbandub's set.

The event was more than just a food trip and Urbandub since there were also performances from talented singers such as X Factor Philippines alumnus Mark Mabasa, Ruel Quizon, as well as the 2nd runner up to the 2012 World Karaoke Championship (which was held in Finland by the way) Lilibeth Garcia and finalist JV Decena. The event was hosted by Bb. Pilipinas International 2013 Bea Rose Santiago and Bb. Pilipinas 2013 1st runner up Pia Wurtzbach. Apparently there were changes to the line up, I had to do an erratum in the earlier post.

Things were made a little more exciting with a little game where audience members were asked to render their best Karaoke song - (the prize was a Wow Karaoke) what can I say Pinoys are really talented when it comes to Karaoke :p
The prize ~ take me home! Take me home! |
The winner! |
As expected Urbandub gave a great performance! I just love these guys! OPM is so not dead with them around ;) I was able to have a photo with Lalay and John after their set, I wasn't able to get a photo with Gab since body guards literally swooped down on him to carry him away. It was almost comedic how one of the guards literally hugged him, wrapping his arms around Gab's neck :p
Crazy John from Urbandub was jumping on the stage - and he jumps very high. |

I will have my photo with you yet Gab Alipe. |
