MCPF - Seaoil Event
2007-11-23 08:23:00 Got the chance to attend the MCPF-SEAOIL event last Sunday at the Silver City Auto Mall in Pasig. Although a bit late, I still managed to take a peek on what’s in store for the riders at the venue. There’s a group of female dancing in front when I arrived. I was told that they were ...
Album Review: Joe Ely - Silver City
2007-03-07 17:41:09 Joe Ely - Silver City It was barely a month ago that Joe Ely put out Happy Songs From Rattlesnake Gulch, something he describes as the “rough and tumble” side of his road life. Today he released Silver City, an album of ten songs he wrote between 1968 and 1972 but weren’t recorded until the past year and a half.

The film was Repli-Kate (university student clones cute girl by mistake, teaches it how to behave only to discover he´s created a sex-addict beer swilling beauty - and he prefers the original.... OK I´ll stop right there). By this point I´d been travelling for approximately 20 hours including a few hours stop-off at Chihuahua bus station. I´m still not sure if the film is an undiscovered gem or whether my brain had started to short circuit. The only other stimulation it had had in the previous few hours was a stunning sunrise over the Mexican desert and some truly tragic Mexican music blaring out of the driver´s stereo a couple of rows in front of me. Eventually the bus pulled into its destination - Zacatecas, Mexico's elegant and prosperous city of silver. The city´s existence came about by what was un...
