The Street Party sponsored by San Miguel Beer on the weeklong celebration of the Kalilangan Festival was a huge success. The highlight of the event was the successive performances of Kuerdas for two nights, February 27 and 28 at the Party Zone. I was there on the first night and I couldn’t believe my eyes! The crowd was overflowing! We had a hard time finding for a place to have a better view of the performers on stage. During the first set, the crowd was a little tamed. They sang along with the band and were enjoying themselves listening to slow reagge beat.
But the people went berserk when the second set began. The audience weren’t prevented by the band to dance along with the music. In fact, they were even encouraged. The only thing that’s not allowed was to come up on stage. SMB even hired private securities to secure the place especially the stage to prohibit people from coming up.
In the middle of the second set, the band sent out a warning to everyone and apologized that the venue was fully packed and won’t anymore allow entry of the people from outside who were flocking and pleading to the guards to let them in. That’s to prevent stampede. There’s no more space left for the latecomers. They contented themselves watching the band from outside.
Overall, it was a blast for the Generals who got used to Kuerdas performing on stage for the culmination of the Kalilangan Festival.
