Concerts for a cause are becoming popular here and there and why not? You gather a crowd through music and get to raise awareness for a cause it's a win-win situation right? And this is exactly what took place last May 6, 2013 at Eastwood Central Plaza during Dakila's Rock for F.A.N (Fully Abled Nation) concert whose purpose was to encourage participation among the Person's with Disabilities to participate during the upcoming elections.
The event was organized by Dakila (Philippine Collective for Modern Heroism) in partnership with the Disability-Inclusive Elections initiative or Fully Abled Nation.
This endeavor was made possible through The Asia Foundation as part of the Australian Aid's program on Disability-Inclusive Development.

Long Time No See
People often go to a benefit concerts for the rock stars and the music then the cause would just be an added bonus but Rock for F.A.N (Fully Abled Nation) was really different because the event was to encourage our PWD brothers and sisters to participate during the upcoming elections and this show was really all about them, since the event also featured acts like blind rockers 'Long Time No See' (see the photo above) and the Professor X of the Philippines - Righteous One and he is one mean rapper and he also does Flip Top! Check out a video of him here.
