Not even close. Gin Blind was concocted and distilled out of a genu- ine love for thrash metal, old school Metallica and the Juan de la Cruz band. The band is a collabora- tion of pioneer musikeros from the Manila gig scene, From L-R: Alvin Adeva, Dennis Diamse, Chic Nidoy and Charlie Panganiban coming from the likes of “Swinger” Diamse (vocals Panganiban (drums).

The first taste A Pinoy underground band scene has already been exis- tence in Los Angeles, years before Gin Blind’s inception. The foursome, being regulars in gigs and rightful veterans and critics in music, felt the need to start up a band as a venue to express their musi- cal inclinations and to relive the golden days of old school Pinoy rock. Chic Nidoy on guitars Charlie Panganiban on drums Certified ‘tomadors’ of Pinoy rock With their previous pro- fessional experiences in the music industry, infiltrating LA’s Pinoy gig scene didn’t prove too difficult for Gin Blind. They got their big break from Kamote Produc- tions and Concertmaster and easily stole the show in their first gigs, with a debut performance at Musikahan in Cerritos and a few oth- ers in Pinoy Bistro, British Dominion and recently, in Gin Blind at Musikahan AJ Photos by Nickee V. de Leon Continued on PAGE 13.

Gwapo, mayaman, sikat, habulin ng mga babae at ang Captain ng basketball team. Siya ang numero unong bully sa school namin, mapang asar at napaka yabang. Malakas mag yosi at uminon ng alak. Siya yung taong pinaka kinaiinisan ko sa lahat. Troy Mendoza. Siya ang best friend at palaging kasama ni Jeydon. Cute, mayaman at sobrang kulit. Siya ang wonanizer sa kanilang apat dahil siya ang pinaka mahilig sa mga babae at ang 'boyfriend ng campus' dahil sa dami ng girlfriend niya. Napaka dami na niyang babaeng pina iyak. Isa din siya sa kinaiinisan kong tao sa school. Charles Gonzales. Ang pinaka matanda sa grupo. Siya ang basagulero sa kanilang apat, walang alam kundi makipag away. Gwapo, mayaman, sobrang mapang asar at kinakatakutan sa school. Hindi lang siya sa school expert mang bully pati sa buhay ko. Unfortunately kapatid ko siya, mahal ko siya pero naiinis din ako sakanya. Marky Lim. Siya ang huling kukumpleto sa grupo nila. Siya yung silent type sa grupo nila na parang may sariling mundo palagi. Gwapo, masunget tska snobero. Sabi nila siya daw yung pinaka player sa kanilang apat pero hindi ako naniniwala kasi crush ko siya eh. Ang galing galing niya kasi kumanta tska napaka gwapo pa. Siya lang ata yung gusto ko sakanila.

  • Si Judy Ann Santos at Ang Wika Ng Teleserye 344
    Sanchez / Si Judy Ann Santos at ang Wika ng Teleserye 344 SI JUDY ANN SANTOS AT ANG WIKA NG TELESERYE Louie Jon A. Sánchez Ateneo de Manila University [email protected] Abstract The actress Judy Ann Santos boasts of an illustrious and sterling career in Philippine show business, and is widely considered the “queen” of the teleserye, the Filipino soap opera. In the manner of Barthes, this paper explores this queenship, so-called, by way of traversing through Santos’ acting history, which may be read as having founded the language, the grammar of the said televisual dramatic genre. The paper will focus, primarily, on her oeuvre of soap operas, and would consequently delve into her other interventions in film, illustrating not only how her career was shaped by the dramatic genre, pre- and post- EDSA Revolution, but also how she actually interrogated and negotiated with what may be deemed demarcations of her own formulation of the genre. In the end, the paper seeks to carry out the task of generically explicating the teleserye by way of Santos’s oeuvre, establishing a sort of authorship through intermedium perpetration, as well as responding on her own so-called “anxiety of influence” with the esteemed actress Nora Aunor. Keywords aura; iconology; ordinariness; rules of assemblage; teleseries About the Author Louie Jon A. Sánchez is the author of two poetry collections in Filipino, At Sa Tahanan ng Alabok (Manila: U of Santo Tomas Publishing House, 2010), a finalist in the Madrigal Gonzales Prize for Best First Book, and Kung Saan sa Katawan (Manila: U of Santo To- mas Publishing House, 2013), a finalist in the National Book Awards Best Poetry Book in Filipino category; and a book of creative nonfiction, Pagkahaba-haba Man ng Prusisyon: Mga Pagtatapat at Pahayag ng Pananampalataya (Quezon City: U of the Philippines P, forthcoming).
