[Title] => The comeback kids
[Summary] =>
As long as there’s a Philippines, they will come.
Something about these exotic shores beckons them.
I’m talking about pop stars whose best days may be in the distant past, but whose love affair with Filipino audiences is always in the here and now.

[Title] => More nostalgia with Peter and Gordon
[Summary] => 
By some quirk of fate, 2005 has turned out to be the year when nostalgia ruled the concert scene. Maybe it is a desire to go back to what are considered better times. Maybe it is the older generation asserting its influence over their children or their grandchildren. Why not? They are the ones with money to spend. So instead of spending these on tickets for their kids at rock concerts, they are spending it on themselves to listen to the music they grew up with.

[Title] => Banned song a million seller for Peter and Gordon
[Summary] => 
When the saucy song Lady Godiva was branded "obscene" by the Coventry mayor and banned in the West Midlands in 1966, little did Peter and Gordon – who recorded the single – realize it would become their fourth million-seller.
Lady Godiva followed in the footsteps of A World Without Love, Nobody I Know and True Love Ways as the songs that brought the British singing duo a total of four Gold Disc awards.

[Title] => A tapestry of talents
[Summary] => 
A good show always deserves a repeat performance. I had seen (and recommended to you guys) St. Louis Loves Dem Filipinos when it first opened in July this year. The show ran for 34 performances, with numerous extensions. So, you can imagine just how excited I was to hear that producer Lisa Banares of Great Events@Manila, had taken an interest in the show, and was bringing it to the AFP, where it runs until this weekend.

[Title] => Back in the groove
[Summary] => Not too many Philippine Basketball Association fans know that Rene Pardo, Purefoods’ representative in the Board of Governors, was a matinee idol during his college days.
In the ‘60s, Pardo was the lead vocalist of a popular band called The Griffins, specializing in Beatles and Dave Clark Five songs. The local variety show "Nine Teeners," patterned after the US music programs "Shindig" and "Hullaballoo," often featured The Griffins on TV.

[Title] => Peter and Gordon bring back Beat Boom craze
[Summary] => 
In the ‘60s, the Beatles launched the British Invasion that introduced music fans to the so-called Beat Boom era where mop tops, mohair suits, foot-tapping rhythm and lyrical harmonies revolutionized the world of pop.
Groups like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Dave Clark Five, the Searchers and the Kinks became legends in their own time. They were at the forefront of the new wave, conquering near and distant shores.

[Title] => And now, it’s Peter and Gordon
[Summary] => 
Can you imagine a world without love?
Ask Eddie Gutierrez and chances are that he’ll shake his head and sigh, "No, I can’t!"
I mention Eddie’s name because this piece is about Peter and Gordon, the acclaimed duo of the ’60s and ’70s which is coming for two shows in December, at the Big Dome on Dec. l and at the Hard Rock Café (dinner show) in Makati City on Dec. 3.

[Title] => Gordon’s comeback
[Summary] => Warning: This isn’t about sports. With your indulgence, I’ll digress once more to write about my other passion–’60s British pop music.
Last night, Gordon Waller–the voice of the British Invasion duet Peter and Gordon–topbilled a star-studded show and enthralled a large audience at the Aliw Theater on Roxas Boulevard.
