Paramore Night 8

Thrilling Trio Estrella 
When You already been going to an event that happens every few months or so(which is the case for Paramore Nights).  You might think that 'Nothing new is going to happen' or 'You've seen everything that could possibly happen.  But recently concluded Paramore Night 8 proved this to be wrong.

Being present since Paramore Night 3, I was still pleasantly surprised to witness a selfie stick in a moshpit, witness more amazing OPM bands (get to listen to quality  songs) and get some more haw dropping stage performances.  


Wild and Crazy with Android 18


This Paramore Night was also extra special for me since my band - The Pearl Report was included in the lien up.  So there was that extra nerves working up in (me) and butterflies in my tummy.  Thankfully we were able to it through our set without making a mess or losing face.



Paramore Night 8 revisited one of its former venues, former Freedom Bar in Anonas, which is now District 2140. I did write about (in my previous Paramore Night 7 blog post) about the current status of bars in the Metro having to close up. So seeing a historical bar having to close and go through new management was literally truth staring you in the face. 


Selfie Mosh with Veridea
Just glad that the venue is still a bar, where bands can still play music. It was just sad to see the once famous mural blank and white with only a few pieces of art drawn on them. Well at least there's space to make new art and memories right? 

My band The Pearl Report opened the show and shared the stage with other parawesome bands chosen from The Paramore Philippines Group like Juancho's Back, Veridea and Starecase.  

But aside from that the night was also extra special because it was also the Album Buyout for our beloved Mayonnaise's new album Tayo Nalang Dalawa :) There were prizes and surprises for the event attendees and every body went home a winner with the great music, the company of good old friends and also the pleasure of meeting new ones.

Can I just add that I loved the original songs of the band Estrella, led by Paramore fan Chin-Chin Detera, they were very well written and the delivery was smooth as ice! Hoping they get featured on Amplify PH soon :) 


Going to Church with The Morning Light

A lot of people have been clamoring for the band Android 18 (Dragon Ball fans I would presume) to be part of Paramore Night-and for good reason. Their energy on stage was amazing! All that jumping and headbanging is enough to give enough a stiff neck and a sprained ankle. 


Circa


Another treat for the fans present was a show from amazing Collaboration Band The Morning Light :)


Mayonnaise

Paramore Night staples Paraluman and Circa also gave the night their usual flavor and zest.
