Ally Taking Over Kuerdas

205 views

Yeah, I took over A Sojourner’s Saga, The Certified Fashionable Chic and now Kuerdas. Just like what I’ve said on the other blogs of Lainy’s, this is not something permanent and that Lainy is gonna be back sometime soon.

I honestly don’t know how my former bandmates have been doing now. I so very seldom even send text messages to my cousins Jayson and Mark just to say hello. How pathetic of me. I miss them, alright. I just got too busy with my life here in Manila.

To those who don’t know me yet, I’m Ally, Lainy’s cousin and a former female vocalist of Kuerdas Band. I left GenSan some years ago to work here in Manila. Whenever I come home in GenSan, the boys never fail to allow me to jam with them. I always miss the band and my family. So whenever I’m home, I make sure to spend time with them on stage.

I will tell you some more great stories about the band that I’m sure you will all enjoy. I’ll do my best to not bore you with those stories, though! :)

I’ll see you all around! :)

Kampeon Ang Pasko Sa Gensan

828 views

It was in December 2011 when the Kuerdas Band Major, my brother next to me, was commissioned to compose a Christmas jingle just in time for the Pasko sa Gensan celebration. My brother did not think twice in writing a song for the purpose.

They traveled to Davao City to record his own composition. The Kuerdas vocals, my youngest brother, were one amongst the three who sang the jingle.

Do click the link below to hear the audio of the Christmas Jingle:

Why Musicians Charge So Much For Performances?

257 views

I saw the answer to that question at Kuerdas’ FB Status:

We don’t get paid vacation, we don’t get paid sick days, we don’t get bonuses for outstanding performances nor for Christmas. We don’t have insurance plans nor do we qualify for unemployment. We sacrifice our family on special days so that we can bring happiness to others. Illness or personal affairs are not excuses for a bad performance. Next time you ask, remember that musicians are musicians because of the love of music, but that love doesn’t pay debts.

HAPPY MUSICIANS DAY!!!
