Yehey's PoPinoyan partay
With bands, food and booze aplenty, it was all smiles at the Yehey! PoPinoyan Christmas party last night at Grilla Bar and Grill along Kalayaan.
Clients, partners, bloggers, users and Yehey! employees mingled with each other in an eventful evening, hosted by poet / writer / actor / host Juddah Paolo.
A full buffet, free flowing alcohol, a few prizes and some great, up and coming bands fueled the party atmosphere, as Yehey! gave thanks to everyone that braved the traffic and attended the party, as well as recognize the support that everyone gave for a fruitful 2008.
As an added treat, and to celebrate our Pinoy Pop Culture, a few hundred lucky guests also got to take home a t-shirt with their favorite lines from movies, songs and various other popular media over the past few decades.
Thanks to everyone who made it.
Here are a few photos to browse through…

Acel @ Yehey
Former Moonstar88 vocalist, now solo artist and proud mommy Acel Bisa-Van Ommen came over to the Yehey office yesterday for a quick Chat Event with the users and to promote her new album, ‘Silver Lining’.
Here are a few photos from the event.
one man AC/DC cover band
One of the hardest rocking bands formed in the early 70′s has now been covered by a single man. Granted, he is not playing the guitar (and using an organ or synth), it’s still pretty cool to see him rock out “Back In Black”.

And since one guy can do all of this, does this mean AC/DC’s music was that simple? >_< Nooooooo!
Check out the related videos on the Youtube sidebar. They’re pretty cool as well.
daughtry presscon
Last night, I had the pleasure of going to the Daughtry press conference at Shanghai Bistro in Eastwood City. And although we had to wait for about two and a half hours, it was worth it (the wait).
Chris Daughtry and the rest of the band seemed like they genuinely wanted to be where they were. No airs, no qualms no prima donna attitudes. Plus, they seemed like five quirky and funny individuals, as a couple of the members even gave us a sample of a new dance they came up with — the “Double Dragon”. [Note: Since you can only see a photo in my Multiply album, it's basically a rendition of the moves from that classic Taito video game from the 80s in dance form]
And as an added bonus, I got to meet Mo Twister. No, he’s not my man crush (in fact, I don’t even think I have one), but he’s truly one of the wittiest and most original people in the world of showbiz.
Daughtry will be playing in a few hours in what everyone in the media seems to be calling an “intimate” setting. BS man. For the life of me, I can’t conceive how the term intimate even sprung up. Sure it’s much smaller than a normal concert, but having three thousand fans is far from it (intimate). But nevertheless, props to Eastwood City for coming up with a makeshift stadium.
Anyway, here are additional photos from the presscon.
