The everyone's favorite, Parokya ni Edgar reveal that they are "kwela" or just as funny as their songs suggest. The group composed of Chito Miranda, Buwi Meneses, Darius Semaña, Gab Chee Kee, Dindin Moreno and pretty boy Vinci Montaner.Among their strange revelations: Chito the vocalist used to drive an old Volkswagen Beetle. He has now upgraded to a Honda jazz, but guaranteed that he made money off of his old car. He sold the Bug to guitarist Darius for one peso. And to make sure that the sale was official, the two kwela rockers had the transaction notarized. Dindin the drummer is a four-time winner of Pilipinas, Game Ka na Ba? Buwi the bassist auditioned for Pinoy Survivor but didn’t make the cut. On the other hand, they also reveal that the kwela rockers also need some quiet time. They also bond in silence. Even these funny guys run out of jokes to tell each other after over a decade of gigs. [via] |
