Compliments of Oracare and Ovation Productions |
Large Crowd at Araneta |
Full House at Araneta Colliseum |
The show started at 8 p.m. with "Franco" playing around five songs for the opening performance. They're a "superband" here in the Philippines. Most of them are Cebuanos. Although I'm not familiar with their songs, they did a pretty good job entertaining people who are eager to watch Incubus.
After setting up the stage at around 9:20 p.m., the lights closed and the crowds cheered for Incubus' introduction song, Megalomaniac.
From the first song until the last, the voice of the crowd singing, clapping and cheering filled the stadium. I didn't even notice I stood for more than an hour. I'm so glad they played all my favorite songs. My friends were wondering why the song "Stellar" wasn't played. Here is the song list during the show:

After these, the lights went off. People shouted "We want more" for a few minutes. The sound was almost deafening. As expected, they came back to play more songs. I'm surprised they even sang "I Miss You". Its been a long time since I heard that song again. But still as meaningful.=) They also performed "Wolves" and "Nice to Know You".
They performed so well, its really difficult to pick which song was the best for the night. I enjoyed Drive, Promises, Promises and Wish You Here the most.
After the show Oracare toothpaste and mouthwash were being distributed. There was also a Minute Maid and Coke Zero booth. I chose Minute Maid over Coke Zero liked most people did. Perhaps, we were all health-conscious and preferred a no preservative drink?
Overall, definitely worth the watch. I missed their concert last 2008, so I'm really glad I gotthe opportunity this time around. I bet this time around is better since they had more songs to offer. One of the best concerts ever!
