February for RUGIS

RUGIS have been active for this february in the music scene. Maraming naging gig. Last night, Rugis was again here at Lipa. They were invited to play for Hotel La Corona de Lipa sa event nilang N.O.T.A (Night of Total Action). They were with Painted Lilies and Acathesia. Sarap ng tugtugan. Yahoo. Rakenrol. Roundbox talents are really conquering Lipa by music. Nung Feb.28 naman daw ay tumugtog sila sa Sacred Heart College Lucena sa Student's day. They were supposed to record last week sa studio ni Nino of Greyhoundz kaso the funds were note released yet. But surely this March, Rugis repackaged album "A Story Retold" will be independently released by Roundbox. Yahoo. In behalf of Rugis and their creative team, I would like to thank the following for supporting Rugis: Hotel La Corona de Lipa (Sir Charles, Sir James, Chef Gene, Sir Banjo), Sacred Heart College, De La Salle Lipa students who really support our music, Durex condoms for providing us a must-have ng mga banda (CONDOMS!), sa dance step ni AJ, sa Victoria Court, sa mga showbands nung N.O.T.A na napaka-HOT hehe, sa napakagandang accomodations at ang hospitability ng mga taga-Hotel La Corona, sa Redhorse, sa yosi, sa musika, kay Jun Lozada, kay Erap, at kay Lapu-Lapu. Yahoo. Hehe. At syempre sa God of Rock na nasa taas. We hope na all of you will still be there to support our music and our advocacy.

Thank you very much!

Rakenrol!
Tuloy-tuloy tayo!

Rugis @ Lipa

Last November 23, we were at Lipa for the first time. We we're invited to the LIDICSA youth festival in De La Salle Lipa(DLSL) to be their guest band. The youth enjoyed the music from the comment feedbacks that were posted on our friendster account. Thank you LYFers, De La Salle Lipa, and Ma'am Violeta Ramirez.

After the DLSL gig, we were on stage again for the launching event of our manager's productions (Roundbox Productions). We were featured together with Typecast in the theme event "Bulyaw: Shout from the south". We were joined by almost 20 bands from the Batangas province who are really great musicians. Thank you Lipa! Hotel La Corona (Sir Charles and Sir Banjo for the accomodations), Roundbox Productions! Until next time!

Let's support OPM and the shout from the south. Watch out for our repackage album next year!
