Valentine Concerts 2015 to watch for
by Leony Garcia
For concert enthusiasts – including lovers and those in love with love but are actually singles – here’s the list of Valentine concerts to choose from and to look forward to celebrating the V-day:
“Oo, Ako Na, Ako na lang Mag-isa! Samahan N’yo Naman Ako!”
Bukod sa bagong movie with Derek Ramsay, may Valentine concert si Jennylyn Mercado sa SM Skydome sa February 13. The title of the show is “Oo, Ako Na, Ako na lang Mag-isa! Samahan N’yo Naman Ako!” na isa sa mga dialogues niya sa monster hit na English Only, noong December kung saan nanalo ang dalawa bilang Best Actor at Best Actress sa Metro Manila Film Festival 2014. Guest ni Jennylyn sa concert si Derek, kasama pa ang former boyfriend na si Dennis Trillo.
Kuwento ni Jennylyn, pumili sila ng mga awitin tungkol sa kung paano umibig, masaktan at mag-move on, kaya naman tiyak raw na makaka-relate ang lahat ng manonood.
Mayroon din umanong pasabog ang mga guest ng aktres. Abangan!
Ultimate
Starmedia Entertainment and IME present “Ultimate” featuring four of the country’s biggest OPM stars Martin Nievera, Regine Velasquez, Gary Valenciano, and Lani Misalucha. First time magkakasama ang apat na OPM singers! Just imagine the “Concert King”, “Asia’s Songbird”, “Mr. Pure Energy”, and “Asia’s Nightingale” together on one stage, surely it will be a extraordinary performance!
The OPM singers promised concert goers that they will give them more than what they paid for. Sinabi nila na imposible ang concert 20 years ago dahil sa kani-kanilang network affiliations, busy schedules at billing issues.
Nievera, Velasquez, Valenciano, and Misalucha will serenade their audience with their famous hits and favorite love songs on February 13 and 14, 2015, 8:30 PM at the Mall of Asia Arena. The concert is under the musical direction of Maestro Ryan Cayabyab and stage direction by Rowell Santiago.
