    1. either.

      1. adik sya kaya takot sa war on drugs
      2. excuse lang yan dahil wala bumibili ng ticket nya.

      kung no. 2 ang reason sa tingin ko napakaunfair na gamitin ang issue ng ejk para pagtakpan kag kawalan ng benta ng tickets. hindi tama. parang paninirang puri para lang pagtakpan ang sarili.

      Delete
    2. 12:23 true! wala pa nga sa 1/4 ata bumili.. naghanap lang yan ng pwedeng gawin reason.

      tatang James pahinga ka na kasi.

      Delete
    3. Sabihin ang totoo, gamitin ba naman ang ejk. Cancel dahil sa tickets sale. Coldplay ang inabangan ng mga pinoy di ikaw. Kaya 52 tickets lang ang nabenta sino ba naman ang di mag ka cancel nyan.

  13. I doubt this is just merely about the alleged EJK baka sinabihan ng producer na di mahina ticket sales at malulugi sila if push through pa. Di masyado maingay tong concert na to eh. I will believe na dahil sa EJK kung mismong Coldplay mag cancel din since mas maraming fans yun kesa sakanya. Sorry to be nega pero yun lang POV ko

  15. I feel you James. And then the nation also collectively rolled its eyes when DILG "conducted an investigation" kuno and found that there's no evidence of these deaths as being "state sanctioned kuno". It felt like the "Anting-anting" palusot for the Tanim bala scam all over again. PInagmumukha kaming tanga.

  17. Good for him to make a stand. Not everyone believes in killing everyone without even getting a trial. That's the point of having lawyers, judges, jury, and getting a trial. No matter what you did, everyone deserves to get a fair trial. If those bad ppl deserve to die, then so be it, but at least give them a fair trial. That's why the police can't be taken seriously there. Your forensics and how you do your investigations is so archaic not to mention it's so easy to pay off ppl to look the other way.

  18. 2 months ng nasa market ang tickets pero 15% pa lang ang nabebenta worth P 20M. Yung iba reserved para sa sponsors. Kulang na kulang pa sa TF ni James Taylor at ng all-star band niya. Lugi ang producers kung matumal ang benta hanggang ngayon at nataon pa ang concert sa People Power anniversary ng mga Yellow.

    1. Then why cant America even investigate their own killings in countries such as Iraq, when clearly them sending their own soldiers to kill terrorists which are also justified means kuno of killing bad men is much much worse because they are having little children killed as victims everyday just because of their "concerned" interferance? Whats honestly the difference with us here clearing out our own drug pushers and drug lords? Ano pag sila pumatay okay lang pero pag tayo concerned sila bigla?

      Delete
    2. @3:00 am. You are wrong. The Americans are not responsible for the killings in Iraq. They have very limited involvement in Iraq, providing limited help to groups fighting ISIS. Blame Putin, Assad and Iran for the killings. Do your research first. The illegal killings in this country are not acceptable.

    4. 2;50, yeah corruption started with Marcos. You think the hefty bonuses which was given to all military people by Duterte this Xmas is not a form of corruption? It is what you actually call bribe. Puro camps lang halos pinupuntahan ni Digong nyo to make sure these military people won't go against him. Style Marcos din palibhasa pareho silang diktador. No wonder ang laki2 ng budget na approved niya for 2017. Pang bribe sa mga military at pang bayad sa mga ma-hostage ng Abu Sayaf. Hindi daw corrupt. Daming approve na free para pag takpan ang pag patay niya sa mga tao kontra droga.

Also, kung yan ang stand nya, i-respect nalang and move on..agree to disagree.

  32. Ke mahina ang ticket sales or not, the fact that he made his stand known on an important national issue concerning summary executions and total disregard for rule of law, is highly commendable lalo na at alam niya na mababatikos siya sa ginawa niyang desisyon. Sa mga shunga na humahanash kung sikat ba siya, he is the man and the voice behind iconic songs na mahilig banatan sa videoke ng maraming pinoy like You've Got a Friend, Your Smiling Face, Fire & Rain, How Sweet It Is (to Be Loved By You) at marami pang iba.
