Philippine Idol Concert Hosting . . . and another invite...

Philippine Idol Concert Hosting

March 09, 2007 - - - OLCA , Taal, Batangas 07:00pm

In celebration of the National Family Day in my High School - - - i was given the rare opportunity to be invited once again after four long years of seperation to host the Philippine Idol concert...

Family day became a funfilled day for everyone, as the School Home Association in partnership with the Our Lady of Caysasay Academy Administration meticulously planned and arranged every activity possible for the benefit and joy of my fellow OLCAns... Among these activities include: THE Eucharistic Celebration, Costume Parade and Contest for the kiddoes, Wall Climbing Lessons, Horticulture,Avian and Aquatic Lectures,Bingo Social,Dog Shows etc.,Face and Henna Painting - - - and the Philippine Idol Concert @ Night.

I am also honored to meet Mr.Bobby Soul - - - the original Platters Band Member during the 1950's in the States. He was the original composer and singer of "Only You" among lots of hits songs our parents would probably know... (OST: The Ghost) which was recently revived by Sam Milby...yeah! He now settles in Batangas but does regular shows and trips abroad with his' band and daughter Tamica ( who is a very very good singer as well!).

AANNDD: The crown brooch worked again! hahah! Mr.BOBBY SOUL of the Platters asked me to host his' comeback concert on march 24! yeah!!! Di ko kinaya ang onstage plugging and announcement na ininvite nya ko maghost ng concert nya..hehhe! Foreign Group na 'to! hahha!

FYI: Bobby Soul is remembered as the youngest of the original "Platters," the world-famous all-African-American band from the 1950s, the so-called "Golden Years of Pop Music."

Soul was the vocalist and is regarded as the heart and soul of the group.

Soul sang alongside such big names of the pop music world as Jackie Pickets, Chuck Berry, Frankie Lyman, the Teenagers, the Drifters, Little Anthony, the Imperials, B.B.King, Mary Wells and Teddy Pendergrass.

His rich and enchanting voice has proven to be as enduring and timeless as his past musical successes with group members.

Every year, he sings about 40 Platters oldies at theatres, clubs, ballrooms and charity shows around the world.

His classic interpretations of the good old songs like "The Great Pretender," "Twilight Time," "Only You," "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes," "My Prayer," "The Magic Touch" and "Unchained Melody" often bring the audience to its feet.

Soul also impresses the audiences with his interactive performance mode as he likes to walk down the stage, shaking hands and taking pictures, signing autographs and cracking jokes with fans. ----------
