Be part of history pala, 'ha?

To put it short: RockElbi 2006 sucked.

I mean, why the hell would you put so much publicity into a concert, even postpone it, just to bring it all down in an ending so abrupt and so unexpected that people were hurling curses along with the bottles of mineral water and C2 at the stage, where crews were busily disassembling the instruments and sound system under the cover of total darkness. Right backstage, Parokya ni Edgar, Kamikazee, Kjwan, Kapatid, The Youth, Queso, Imago and Sugarfree were standing on numbing legs, waiting for a chance to entertain a crowd that never got to see them, the main reasons people got tickets to the "rock event of the year" that turned out to be nothing more than a disaster.

All that, just so that they could end at midnight. Because the chancellor told them to.

Bastards. You guys were lucky the crowd wasn't as rowdy as one might expect in a rock concert, or that night would have turned out to be a little more eventful than the organizers expected.

P. S. I'm just thankful that Urbandub (the reason why I didn't sell my ticket when I found out about the concert's postponing) was able to perform. They did, after all, come all the way from Cebu just for that gig. Would've sucked big time for them if they weren't able to perform.
