What gives? Was it too much fame? Was it money? Was it women? Until the very end, no one admitted nor confirmed the reason why the lead singer (LS) just decided to call it quits. LS himself has an interesting history in the music scene. He was originally the lead singer of another band and for a time, he quit and disappeared from the scene. As to why LS initially disappeared, well, he was young and fame and temptation were all around him. Rumors had it that he had to “clean up his act.” He then resurrected his career and became more popular with PB. His songs became more meaningful, and he his performance had soul that made his fans love him more.
This time, LS is too passionate and dedicated with performing that nothing can no longer stand in the way of his career. When he was yet with the PB, he got too tired of the lack of discipline of his fellow members. One member (OM) would bring his groupie to the gigs of the band. Even while they had engagements, OM would disappear and hide in the comfort room to take a hit. There were times when the others were obviously high on something. On the other hand, no one could sway LS to the darker side of rock. Eventually, LS could no longer restrain his band mates, he called it quits and dropped them. LS walked away cleanly and went solo. Now, he enjoys as much fame and no longer has the burden of worrying over band mates who seems to be misdirected. LS has found his niche and he wants to keep it that way.

ReplyDeleteBAM! BOOM! Kuha ko na.
ReplyDeleteNangopya ka sisterette. Aminin mo nah. Hindi k nmin ookrayin basta aminin mo lang.
DeleteKawayan.
ReplyDeleteHindi ko kilala ang mga band members except for the singer at yung guitarist na ang ex-girlfriends ay former model turned tv host at isang magaling na bida-kontrabida actress.
Saludo ako sa self control at disiplina ng lead singer na ito. It shows his maturity and real dedication to his craft. I no longer wish him success coz he already is. I wish him fulfillment on everything he does. Sino nga sya 'teh?
ReplyDeleteSi bandooo yan!
ReplyDeleteSi kawayan ito! :)
ReplyDeletesi kawayan ito ang yung bahista nilang si nathan..tama ba basist siya? may article nito dati sa pep..nag labas ng sama ng loob si nathan..ang d lang niya siyempre sinabi is kaya umalis si kawayan sa kanila eh kasi nga nag d-drugs mga kasama niya..good move kawayan!
ReplyDeleteJose Manalo!
ReplyDeleteex ni keysee, so si papa p. ito
ReplyDelete~jonbonjolibee~
bass on these initials, MB, itz makmak, mast bee ...
ReplyDeleteInfer, napahanga nya ko. Simula ngayon, idol ko na sya :)
ReplyDeleteMuch has been said. Said you never leave. Why it had to be? Harder than it had to be. . No don't you throw blame, you were a part of this. It wasn't supposed to end with us just walking away. . ---one of my favourite songs.
ReplyDeleteAng kagalingan nya kc eh hndi npagaralan. Innate skanya. May passion xa sa music na madarama mo each time you listen to his songs. You will feel the emotion. The eagerness. . . To convey what he really feels, what he really think , and what he really is trying to say. The life of his music is not in the band. But within himself.
Charot!
Gus
ReplyDeletetong gusto ko itong si kawayan lalo na yung song nyang 214..kahit parang suplado sya..
Bimbee Mamulat!! lol
ReplyDeleteI was super sad nung nag-disband sila but if this is the reason he quit, I'm proud of him.
ReplyDeleteSi Chiz at ito, parang pinagbiyak na kawayan.
ReplyDeleteFavorite ko to! Aylabyu bam........... Hahaha
ReplyDeleteSearch nyo ang real totoong surname ni Kawayan.............ayan oh......nasa title ang initials nya.
ReplyDeleteMy super duper idol! I love u so much b***ooooooo!!!
ReplyDeletehahaha! talagang isinigaw ang pangalan!
Deleteyung tungkod nung lalaki sa picture ay gawa sa kawayan.
ReplyDeletem dizon, ikaw ba ang starlet? pinagkakalat ba naman na di magaling ang dati nyang pedia dahil pinabayad sya and yung ibang naunang models sa pila libre. ipagkalat na di magaling ang doctor nya sa mga sosyalera sa pila. hayun. sinumbong sa doctor. cheap.
ReplyDeleteGood for him that he didn't fall off the wagon! He was the soul of his previous band so while the other creative force is widely acknowledged as a musician, he just never had the soul of kawayan and couldn't lead the band in the way kawayan did. The new band was a breath of fresh air amidst a sea of emo and pseudo punk rock bands in the local scene. So it was sad to see him part ways with the new band. But if this was the case, he's actions were commendable. I wonder if he can reunite with the other guy who left his old band too now that he's cleaned up his act for good. Our local band scene badly needs real musicians to the point that Parokya sounds like Mozart compared to the emo crap we have right now.
ReplyDeleteThumbs up for Lead singer! At least he resisted the temptation of going back to the dark side!!
ReplyDeleteBuo ang kanyang loob!
ah bamb** my loves! its ok to go solo. u will surely make it as u have real talent. stay cool.
ReplyDeleteWhen he was with the band, he seemed so curt and suplado. Now he seems more approachable na. Kudos to BM!
ReplyDeleteKapatid na sya ni Dawn Z? (real question)
ReplyDeleteKapatid ba sya ni Dawn Z? (real question)
ReplyDeleteWow I salute him! May God continue to guide and bless him :)
ReplyDeleteHoy!! Pinoy ako...
ReplyDeleteyung nawala sya nung una pumunta syang california. nakita sya ng roomate ko nag-work sya as customer rep aka salesman sa shoe department sa macy's. good for him at least he cleaned up his act.
ReplyDeleteyeah that's true and he's proud of that. :D
DeleteI can personally attest how nice he is, even to fans. During their album launch, I gave my cd cover to their staff for signature but one band member mistakenly handed it to another fan. I told this to the staff who was very masungit and defensive that they cannot do anything about it blah blah. Then the lead singer heard the staff arguing with me. To my surprise, the lead singer talked to me and apologized for how the staff treated me. I told him about what happened and he asked for my mail address. A week later I received a mail with the album cover and the signatures of the band members on it. Grabe ang bait! Hallelujah!
ReplyDeleteHanggang HS ako, akala ko iisa lang sila ni Chiz whiz. Kung baga rocker name lang ni Chiz whiz yun. :D
ReplyDeleteLS: Si Kawayan na kahawig ng isang keso at ka-apelyido ni Boying.
ReplyDeleteOM: Most probably the ex-bf of Gimik's Melanie Lorenzo.
Ulan Ulan , pantay KAWAYAN!
ReplyDeleteAawww I just watched him nu g Friday sa Glendale California
ReplyDeleteKilala ko ito!!! Salamat sa pamagat ni FP... Si Norman Black ito!!!

ReplyDeletebakit ung bandmates iba ang press release??? Galit na galit sila sa bokalistang to kasi manggagamit daw at pagnakita nila eh sasapakin talga nila...
ReplyDeletekawayan ***alac?
ReplyDeletevery knows ko ito,, this was also the reason why he left RIVERMAYA,,, 1st cousin sya ng friend ko,,, kwento pa,, kapag may natapos na composition ipapakuha lang nya sa mga assistants nila ung copy tapos pag-aaralan at irerehearse nyang mag-isa habang nagtytyongki mga kasama nya...
ReplyDeleteSANA MAY BI ABOUT SASA-GEGE SAGA T_T.. ANO NA KAYANG NGYARI SA KNILA? KHIT D NA CLA MAGKATULUYAN BSTA UNG TOTOONG STATUSI LANG NILA.. SANA MAY SOURCE SI FP PRA maBI NYA^_^.. sori out of the topic ang lola nyo..pasensya..
ReplyDeleteang hirap naman nakakakulot ng bangs!
ReplyDeleteTsismis lang lahat. Si B ang may problema.naninira Lang sya or kampo nya.tahimik lang mga kasama nya dati cause they know the word "respect".
ReplyDeletei always admire bm. he's such an intelligent man. his music is part of my daily routine, way back his rivermaya days. i have all his songs. if he has a cult, i could have been a member. there's something about his music/voice that is truly engaging.
