CONCERT M& G/AUTOGRAPH-SIGNING

i so love this part of the event where anyone mingles with just about everyone! it was surprising to see the long line of people just to have the boys' autograph. we were having second thoughts but carmela already had the intention of seeing her favorite boy, cassius. i wasn't used to wearing high heels, my feet ached so much!! that was just "borrowed" from my daughter, hah hah after endless goodbyes with lala (hah hah and i'm literally laughing while typing this!), we ended up in huddle to have our "borrowed"/already signed from the previous CD signed again. doris solidum was kind to have lent lala one of the 3 CDs she bought for herself and friends. i had my "over-signed" CD with me LOL!! one needs to have a CD and poster in order to enter the line where the boys were seated. but i'm getting ahead on my story, i'm missing the juicy pieces..

while deciding should we queue for the autograph-signing, sofia tipped me that josh's dad was mingling with the crowd. wow, an opportunity to meet & greet him!!! so i approached yuki's group, introduced myself to mr. madine and complimented him about how beautiful & talented his 2 boys are. he was friendly, ever-smiling, accommodating, quite shocked why we were all over him! LOL!!! maybe, it still didn't sink on him why we were requesting to have our pics taken with him - sorry about that, mr. madine - we're overwhelmed, excited and good to see the father of the "star" of libera. but thank you for graciously being game with the fans for a photo session, it made you even more popular than josh now, hah hah

after my line with the boys, of which i didn't stay long, though - i left carmela doing the video. i had the opportunity to call mr. andy winter, approached him and requested him to sign my programme. he obliged even took time to draw a CAT and mentioned "that's orangecat"! wow andy, you really read my blog (that's my username). i wanted to strike a convo and mention terry chubb's name to him but these pesky teeners literally pushed me aside, asked for andy's autograph then asked him "who are you"? duh!!! did i hear you replied "i'm a nobody here" - something to that effect???? but it made my night complete and i will always cherish my signed programme. thank you very much.

then the boys stood up and made a dash for the exit. oh, they all looked tired! jude collins requested for a "time-out" during the signing, poor boy! i understand the situation of these boys. why, they're supposed to be in bed around that time! my apologies to their parents but this happens once in a blue moon so please bear with us, your loyal fans. we were prevented to pass to where they exited so my daughter & i waited for the last crew to pass. then we made our way to our car parked where their bus was also waiting - funny but their bus won't start! hah hah
we were hoping to get a last glimpse but that's too much already. it took sometime before they could board the bus so we went ahead.

thank you libera boys for visiting the philippines once again. you're family to us already. you made it more special for being so warm and accommodating to your fans. my special thank you to mr. andy winter, ms. barbara geraghty, steven geraghty, ben crawley, ms. eleonor lewis and the rest of the crew and staff involved in making these concerts possible.

thank you, too mr. roberto de ocampo who introduced and brought libera to the philippines. your presence during the M & G and concert makes it even more special to the fans.

the events people, security-detail - hello kuya dondon again! good to see you! who protected and escorted the boys everywhere they went. good job!

and lastly, mr. robert prizeman, the genius behind libera. your music will forever be remembered for all generations to come.

MABUHAY LIBERA!!!
