Gorgoro's open letter to Mr.Manny Paquiao






GORGORO’s open letter to Mr. Manny Paquiao

Dear Mr. Paquiao

Congratulations for being the first Asian to win four weight titles. Talagang napahanga mo na naman ang mga Pilipino.

Hindi mo naitatanong Mr. Paquiao, ako po ay isang Fil-Am. My dad is a very famous musician from America. His name is Animal. Nung 1982, pumunta siya dito sa Pilipinas for his band’s concert tour. Nakilala niya ang isang babae from Olangapo na kanya pong nabuntis. At ang babaeng ito ay ang aking ina. Up to this day, I haven’t seen my dad. I don't know if he knows me or if he was even informed that I exist.

I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a favor. Medyo kakapalan ko na ang mukha ko Mr. Paquiao. On your next fight Mr. Paquiao, I’m presenting myself to sing Lupang Hinirang, our national anthem. Medyo mapangarap ang hinihiling ko, pero I’m so desperate to meet my dad. I know that to be in that ring and in front of a live worldwide audience – sobrang napakalaki ng chance na mapanood ako ng aking ama.

Hindi ko ginagawa ito Mr. Paquiao upang sumikat or makakuha ng record deal. I’m doing this to hopefully see him, finally.

Maraming salamat Mr. Paquiao and congratulations.

Lovingly yours,
Gorgoro

Finally,my first ever live performance




Photos by Steph Mangalindan

It was the 15th of June 2008;I’m set to perform in front of a live crowd. I’m really nervous. I’m really a virgin performer and as a preparation I just watch clips of my dad performing so I can get some pointers and techniques. Also, what made me nervous is the idea that I’ll be performing with great bands such as CIUDAD, EGGBOY, SPAZZKID, BOY ELROY and ANG BANDANG SHIRLEY. Finally, it’s the moment of truth…my first live debut. I think we really pull off a nice show; people are clapping, smiling and some even taking photos of my band and me. It was really a good start for us and for me to make it in the rock n roll arena so my dad will notice me. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my band mates who support me in this quest to get my dad’s recognition.

Manx Abrera- guitars
Billy Gary Reyes- lead guitars

Jeng Tan- Bass

Jovi Reyes- drums/percs
