Project: Better than Life

I'm back!

The four-day weekend has been action-packed to say the least. We enjoyed two wonderful Thanksgiving celebrations, survived a ten-hour After Thanksgiving sale, road-tripped to Winsor for an overnight, and capped off the Holiday with an old friend's belated birthday-cum-reunion.

Don't worry, a juicy detailed account of the above will follow... maybe in my next post. I just need to set aside time to upload photos and write out the entry.

Meanwhile, here's a draft of the promotional video I made for Project: Better than Life. It's the Bebster's brainchild, one he's been working on since the start of the year. The endeavor will bring together Philippines' top musicians for a musical undertaking that will benefit the underprivileged children of our country. All the songs will be written by Bebs and performed by the artists. Huge undertaking, but it'll be awesome.

AND, bass extraordinaire Mr. Michael Manring himself will lend his mind-blowing talents for a bass duet with Bebs. Woohooo! And they're using my song too! That totally can't get any better. Definitely a milestone to go down the anals of Bharwani history.

Anyway, without further ado, here it is (just keep in mind it's still a draft):



Let me know what you think of it ;)

Bloody Sunday.

I finally found a way to upload my videos! Yeba.

Here's a rough clip of U2's Sunday, Bloody Sunday. I used my Nikon cam, so it's obviously not broadcast quality. Still, it's major kickass. You can imagine how great of a time we had watching them.

Enjoy!

Uno, dos, tres, catorce!

They really need no introduction. These guys are an icon. A legend. They have, in their own way, changed the face of the earth with their music, their statement, and their beliefs. There are only a few of them out there, but these guys are undoubtedly one of Youth's better influences.

U2 is definitely up on my list of modern-day heroes.

AND, I finally got to see them last Wednesday. Yeehaw!

I must say they were nothing short of amazing. The concert totally rocked my socks off. The stage direction, lighting and effects, the performance--EVERYTHING went over and beyond my expectations. I couldn't have been happier with the turnout. Truly worth the big buck investment.

Eat your hearts out, kids.

Tons more pics HERE.

And speaking of beautiful music, Switchfoot hits SF again in December. If that isn't awesome enough, they're actually double-billing with.... are you ready?

ALANIS, baby! Woohooo!!! I can hardly wait.

Better buy your tickets before you miss out ;)

Slight: A reunion of sorts.

Reasons to skip the 24 DVD marathon and drive an hour and thirty to Davis on a Sunday afternoon:
- Cause for celebration: Dave finally proposed to Brenda. Yay!!!
- Haven't seen the Slight folks for what seems like an age now. Definitely miss those guys.
- Check out Dave and Brenda's beautiful new home. (Sigh. I love their place; it's so full of character. Beautiful).
- 14lbs. of teriyaki beef and juicy chicken breast on a hot grill. Need I say more?

Grilling at D&B's 1/3 of an acre backyard.

Loving the hammock (behind the bbq-ers).

Brenda and a blurry Dave in our discussion of Netflix,
Michael Savage, and other strange subjects.

Dennis and Lucille. Yep, he's taken, ladies. haha.

The man and his form
(...after having downed two servings of applie pie a la mode
AND my sundae).

Sinking into the comfy papasan.

The original Slight, their significant others, and new friend Kam.

This was fun! I love these guys. We should definitely do this again.

Disgracing Marilyn...

First off, let me just say that I am extremely embarrassed for myself. Lol. BUT, for the fun of it, I'll post them just the same.

Ladies and gentlemen, here are last weekend's incriminating evidence:

Yep, that's Marilyn (in drag) and Elvis.

Elvis and his posse.


Marilyn and Richard Simmons.


The boys: Rick James Rich, Tennis Player Joe, Pirate JJ, Elvis Bebs, and Hawk the bunny.

Elvis gets his groove on.

The king and the wench struttin' their stuff.
