Wow! Two of my favorite acts are coming here in Manila for a concert before this month ends! Lifehouse on the 26th and Daughtry on the 29th.
Lifehouse skyrocketed to fame via their debut album No Name Face on 2000 which produced the #1 alternative hit Hanging By A Moment. I remember those days I got crazy for that amazing song! Back in 2005, the ballad You And Me, from their self titled album, was such a hit as well. I equally loved that song, the wonderfully written lyrics really gotten into me. And now with their new album Who We Are, the band gets back to basics, their roots which made them form their group. I am not a super fan (unlike two of my friends who already bought VIP tickets haha!), but I really like this band! Too bad I won’t be able to watch them live because I am saving up for something. I will just probably sing along from afar, while they were performing.
Chris Daughtry, on the other hand, was my favorite Idol back in their time on the 5th season. I really rooted for him that’s why I am so upset when he got eliminated. But he proved the fact that you need not to be the grand winner to reach the top. His debut album went four times platinum, produced hits such as It’s Not Over, Home, and Over You, received a Grammy nomination, and even topped hit charts. Clearly he accomplished more than Katharine McPhee and the grand winner Taylor Hicks (seriously, where is he now?!). Fast forward to 2008, Chris together with his band will pay a visit here to wow their uber exciting Pinoy fans. With his credentials alone, it is an understatement that this event would be a huge success.

Your Result
Edward Cullen. You are Edward Cullen. Charming and polite yet stubborn and overprotective, your desperately adorable crooked smile bears the weight of your inner pain and self-loathing. Your salvation lies in love -- though you won't admit it, you feel you can save your soul in the arms of your true love, Bella.
Daughtry is a poser and he stinks. His album sucks and his second album will suck even worse. His 15 mins is almost up because he’s such a tool. I think he’ll be seller his next album from the trunk of his car.
oh well! i am a Lifehouse fan since the release of “no name face,” and still am…
so excited to catch them live! 
the moment we found out that they are coming to manila, a friend (arden) and i bought the ticket right away. luckily, we got closest seat we could get at Patron Vip row D
i hope to meet them in person … i hope they accommodate MEET AND GREET, just like Incubus when they visit manila last march 2008. i was able to speak them and hugged brandon boyd and mike einziger.. weeeh!
you know what, there are so many great artist that i really love who are visiting Asia. there’s TRAVIS, who will visit HK, SG, Taiwan and Japan but not Philippines! SO SAD! how come? i love them so much! oh well, a friend told me that they are not really big here. if i have so much money, i’ll go to HK or SG or Taiwan or Japan just to see them!
btw, i haven’t heard daughtry’s album so i can’t comment on anything. its not fair to booh them right? i appreciate their music, but not really into it.
cheers!
