Kitchie@Gweilos

Last Wednesday we find Kitchie singing in Gweilos Makati, an old haunt she frequently performed in during the "early days" when she was just starting out as a solo artist. Back then she was promoting compilation albums which included her song Deliverance. Now she's promoting her new EP, Drama Queen TV, a compilation of Kitchie songs written for telenovelas including the hit song--THE mother of all telenovela songs--Huwag Na Huwag Mong Sasabihin which she has reworked into a slow ballad, sans the angst, arranged beautifully like a Ryan Cayabyab piece, with acoustic guitar, strings and piano.

Back to the gig: I arrived and there was a band playing already... ay Chubibo pala... sayang, I should have come earlier, I have always wanted to watch them live. Mabuti na lang inabutan ko pa ang Patawad. :)

And the surprise of the evening happened during Kitchie's set: Ricci Gurango of mojofly was in the house to watch Chubibo of course, and when Kitchie was about to sing Runaway Angel, an old Mojofly song she sings regularly in her gigs, she invited Ricci to play bass for them--and pumayag siya, yey!!! nice to see them play together again. :D

Jack Rufo (right) also used to play for mojofly
